The Obama administration is highly critical over the recent AIG executive bonuses controversy. The administration is once again trying to blame the Bush Administration for its faulty bailout which enables AIG to pay out such bonuses using tax-payer funds.
Reality Check: Obama and his administration need to look in the mirror! Last fall, Treasury Secretary Tim Geithner not only consulted with then-Secretary Hank Paulson, it was Geithner, not Paulson, who put together the original rescue plan for the American International Group (AIG)!

Maybe the Tax Cheat forgot how to tax like how he forgot to pay his taxes
Yeah, they knew these “bonuses” were in there for their favorite contributors.
Is this the dumbest president ever?
And a confidence man.
He knows Americans are ignorant, and will believe anything.
Sorry. Anyone that has to have a teleprompter telling him what to say is just plain dumb.
Remember when the media had a fit trying to figure if GW had something on his back under his suit?
But they’re okay with this dumb*** needing someone (we’re not sure who) on a teleprompter, telling him what to say.
We must also never forget that Hussein voted for the dammed bailout in the first place. He is in no moral position to condemn anything these bailed out companies do.
If you polled the American illiterati and asked them if they would prefer the AIG execs get a flat salary or have a salary with a high percentage of compensation based upon performance what do you think they would say?
http://dealbook.blogs.nytimes.com/2008/11/25/where-was-geithner-in-turmoil/ Behind the scenes, Mr. Geithner was the point person for weeks of sleep-deprived Bailout Weekends. It was Mr. Geithner, not Mr. Paulson, for example, who put together the original rescue plan for the American International Group.
Now we find out that the dumb asshats who ran AIG into the ground are a whole lot smarter than the dumb asshats in Obamas merry band of men. Like the old saying goes when a man with money meets a man with experience the man with experience gets the money and the man with money gets some experience.....who'd a thought?
These People Don’t what the Hell they are doing!!!!
But maybe they do, either way Its Terrifying!!!!!
You mean Obama is either a radical Socialist or stupid and naive?
Very dangerous in either case!
They’re a bunch of bad actors. Obama overacts, no Oscar for him.
obamao will bankrupt the u.s.
0bama hasn’t forgotten anything. It’s an intentional bait-and-switch like everything 0bobblehead does and is.
