This was a sad moment for the country. President Obama hit a disgusting new low in the politics of moral equivalence.

He compared the violence and death of a suicide bombing to the AIG bonus scandal. Pretty sick.

But today, President Obama took that rhetoric in a different direction. He actually upped the ante explaining that AIG is like a suicide bomber.

Zero should go to Iraq or Afganistan or Israel and see what a true suicide bomber is. Makes me gag!

He was off teleprompter, which is right now kicking him in the shins for doing so.

If AIG is equivalent to a terrosit-suicide-bomber then the Obama White House staff can be likened to...sawing the heads off live Jewish journalists.

Where does Rahm Emanuel stand on the death of Daniel Pearl???

This is embarrassing. Its not like everyone doesn’t know by now that his people authorized the bonuses, and the senate signed off on them.

And in any case, the bonuses are chickenfeed. He wants us to keep our eye on the millions so we won’t notice the billions. AIG’s investment in his campaign is the best investment they ever made. They get the millions and the billions both.

"Here’s the problem. It’s almost like they’ve got — they’ve got a bomb strapped to them and they’ve got their hand on the trigger. You don’t want them to blow up. But you’ve got to kind of talk them, ease that finger off the trigger.”

The "bomb" he's talking about is purely a political bomb that could embarass him and the other chooches who voted for this giveaway.

The bonuses account for something less than 1% of the bailout money. It's just the embarrasing part. I'll even let them keep that, if we get the other 99% back.

I don't know what's more troubing....

Obama equates US banks and financial institutions with terrorism/suicide bombers. He also seems to think he can talk a terrorist out of the act.

“AIG is like a suicide bomber.”

That’s about as clever as when Obama tried to make our brave Troops pay for their own new legs and arms.

Clinging to my guns....... hell yes!

Who was it the other day who was saying AIG execs should kill themselves?

He wasn’t reading from Joe Biden’s teleprompter by mistake was he?

This alone should tell us all we need to know about the boy.
