Poll: Do you find it disturbing that the government knew about the AIG bonuses for months now?

Question

And now claim that they are and were outraged then about it only after we the people found out about it.
Washington knew AIG was preparing to pay bonuses.
For months, the Obama administration and members of Congress have known that insurance giant AIG was getting ready to pay huge bonuses while living off government bailouts. It wasn't until the money was flowing and news was trickling out to the public that official Washington rose up in anger and vowed to yank the money back.

This pisses me off just as much as the fact that AIG is giving the bonuses.

Answer 1

I can not describe how disgusting I find all of this crap. I say we fire Congress, The Senate and impeach Obama. Then we can start with a fresh book.

Answer 2

all of them did. The media did too. The outrage over those bonuses are suited for the politicians. they could practice their disgust and the media can faux to be doing their interest. meanwhile there is not any talk approximately the place that seven-hundred billion dollar TARP funds went. The bonuses are a pittance in assessment. pay attention for the pinnacle faux.
