A reporter just asked him at the press conference about that contribution and Obama just blew him off. Didn't even acknowledge it.
Obama's Stimulus Bill Explicitly Grants AIG the Legal Right to Give Unlimited Bonuses â(iii) The prohibition required under clause (i) shall not be construed to prohibit any bonus payment required to be paid pursuant to a written employment contract executed on or before February 11, 2009, as such valid employment contracts are determined by the Secretary or the designee of the Secretary." Democrat Sen. Chris Dodd, it turns out, was for protecting AIGâs bonuses before he was against them. During the Senate porkulus negotiations last month, Dodd successfully inserted a tiny amendment that provided for an ââexception for contractually obligated bonuses agreed on before Feb. 11, 2009,â which exempts the very AIG bonuses Dodd and others are seeking to tax.â http://porkulus.butasforme.com/?p=110#bonus
Look at that. Landis officially ran away from the argument. This is a great example of a distorted Obama supporter.
AIG total contributions: $4,362,625 (from 1989-2008) Dodd, Chris (D-Conn) $280,238 Bush, George W (R-Texas) $200,560 Schumer, Charles E (D-NY) $111,875 Obama, Barack (D-Ill) $107,332 McCain, John (R-Ariz) $99,249 Baucus, Max (D-Mont) $90,000 Kerry, John (D-Mass) $85,000 Johnson, Nancy L (R-Conn) $75,400 Sununu, John E (R-NH) $69,049 Clinton, Hillary (D-NY) $59,515 Lieberman, Joe (I-Conn) $57,900 Rangel, Charles B (D-NY) $53,582 Giuliani, Rudolph W (R-NY) $50,250 Continued.... http://www.opensecrets.org/orgs/rec...&cycle=A&state=&party=&chamber=&sort=A&page=1
You are totally right. This clearly wasn't a bipartisan endeavor. Treasury Secretary Paulson and the Bush Administration didn't have any say in this. TARP-1 wasn't their proposal. No blame on Congress either. The FED had nothing to do with AIG whatsoever. Zero. It's all a BLACK President's fault.
Zero. It's all a BLACK President's fault. He is mullato not black. He calls himself black because it suits him well. Democratic party successfully switched from KKK tradition to destroying blacks by other means. P.S.Just a side note, irrelevant to this thread.
Obama....past.....present.......and future! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eAaQNACwaLw Another globalist "selected" minion in a string of american presidents directed by their handlers to form the "Continuity of Administrations" Americans like fools again CONNED by the left/right two party paradigm, as the executive branch rolls out further globalist influenced ENDGAME actions. While the masses fight over the "left-right-who is right?" scripted GAME, the US slides further into globalist enslavement.....massive debt, crumbling financial grid, and further "compromised" congressional politicians. The insanity of our countries current realities seems to have entrenched so many in their LOSING POSITIONS! It is time to take a very honest look at what has happened to this once great country, and to FORCE our government into a new honorable direction!
