Dodd: Administration pushed for language protecting bonuses
18th March 2009
Let the finger-pointing begin….
Dodd acknowledged his role in the change after a Treasury Department official told CNN the administration pushed for the language.
And the lies…
On Tuesday, Dodd denied to CNN that he had anything to do with adding the language, which has been used by officials at bailed-out insurance giant AIG to justify paying millions of dollars in bonuses to executives after receiving federal money.
It’s getting to the point where nobody even blinks when politicians lie because that’s what we expect them to do. As Otter so joyously said to Flounder after they trashed his brother’s car, “Hey, you fucked up! You trusted us!”
