Also on CNN, they ambushed a manager coming out of the AIG building and he agreed to talk to them. He was pissed. He wasn't one of the bonus guys, but was disgusted at Obama for demonizing them.

He said the bonuses were from last years profits and most of the execs had already left the company and they had contracts and they were Brits, like him.

Plus the guy running AIG was the guy Spitzer had put in place after he harassed the original founder (Hank Greenburg) out of the company with phony indictments and legal pressure. I think that after Greenburg fought the charges they were all dismissed, I know Spitzer came out it embarrassed.

And CNN ran it!? I'm shocked!

From what I hear (my husband has a very good friend that works for AIG), none of this would be as bad as it is if Greenburg were still running the company.
