Live-Blogging the AIG Hearing: Ed Liddy In the Dunk Tank
The Wall Street Journal ^ | 03-18-09 | Sudeep Reddy

Posted on 03/18/2009 7:24:28 PM PDT by GOP_Lady

By Sudeep Reddy It’s better than the circus: A hearing on America’s most reviled corporate punching bag since Enron. A House subcommittee (yes, a subcommittee) on capital markets may be getting its most attention ever thanks to American International Group Inc.

Edward Liddy, chief executive officer of AIG, is in for a grilling. (Associated Press) Read about the morning session.

1:24 pm: Liddy enters and turns around to hear the concerns of the Code Pink crew. Behind Liddy is a pink “Fire Geithner” sign. Kanjorski is not pleased, calling on the Capitol police to restore order to the room. “I’m a very patient person, but don’t try my patience,” Kanjorski says, his voice rising. “Now the pink ladies back there respond properly or please exit the room. Signs down!”

1:26: Liddy raises his right hand to take the oath. (The House Financial Services Committee rarely swears in witnesses.)

It wouldn't be a TRUE Congressional Hearing without CODE PINK in attendance.

We need a Red White and Blue crew in there to counter them.

Mr. Liddy was the only true American there.
