Chris Dodd is a lying weasel. It is hard enough to swallow that the senator (said) had no idea he got preferential treatment on his home mortgages......Or that, simply out of friendship, a wealthy New York man, who was later convicted in a huge stock swindle, picked up much of the cost of Dodd's Washington condo; or that the stock swindler’s business partner out of a love of Ireland did the same for Dodd when the senator bought a waterfront house in Ireland. Now, Dodd flat-out has lied about his role in legislation that allows AIG to receive $400 million in bonuses despite receiving $173 billion in taxpayer money to keep the failed financial giant alive.

Chris Dodd is a lying weasel ...........my, my, that IS strong language.

Wonder what the heretofore glib, gullible New Haven Register will say when they find out Dodd hid from the public that fact that Dodd's Wife Is a Former Director of Bermuda-Based IPC Holdings, an AIG Controlled Company---

And that she was pocketing bigtime while Dodd was using his office to rig the laws in AIG's favor.

Jackie Dodd spent 20 years working in national security policy, foreign affairs and trade for the US Government. As CEO and Vice Chair of the Export-Import Bank during the Clinton administration, Mrs Dodd visited over 90 countries around the world, leading trade negotiations and opening new markets to US goods.

Prior to her executive branch experience Mrs Dodd worked on issues of national security in the Congress, she holds a MA in National Security Studies from Georgetown University.

Jackie Clegg Dodd, wife of Democrat Chris Dodd, has mixed a career with motherhood, but credits a little luck for her success.
“I like the title of homemaker. The best title I’ve ever taken on is Mommy,” she said. “But I’ve been lucky. I was lucky I had worked for so many years before having little ones. I’ve benefited from having had a full career. That gave me options. I work out of my home, so my little ones have no notion of Mommy working. I do conference calls, while they’re playing right in front of me.”
Dodd, a former vice president of the Export-Import Bank of the U.S. , left a government career six years ago but still runs her own international consulting company and sits on the Board of Directors of the Chicago Board of Trade, Blockbuster, Javelin Pharmaceuticals Inc., Cardiome Pharma Corp. and Brookdale Senior Living Inc. She is past staff member to numerous Congressional committees, including Appropriations, Senate Banking and Defense. She married Dodd in 1999 and is now the mother of two daughters, Christina, 2, and Grace, 5.
