1. It seems Geitner is missing the point...

AIG executives will have their money - adios to AIG is their way of saying thanking you.

I mean, like really. It was obvious to me AIG executives would do this.

2. Let this be a lesson to Republicans on giving huge tax cuts to the wealthy...
BECAUSE THERE'S NO DIFFERENCE!!!!!!!!!!!! Why would there be non-partisan infuriation with AIG CEO's????? Well I can tell you why a liberal would be pissed; it's because it's part of our ideology. Why would a conservative be upset???? It's just another tax cut that's being "invested" into the job market. News flash to Conservatives: THIS IS WHAT IS WRONG WITH TAX-CUTS FOR PEOPLE WHO DON'T NEED THEM; GOLDEN PARACHUTES ARE NOT INVESTMENTS THAT HELP THE ECONOMY. So now, amidst all of these bonuses, I think we can all officially say, "Take your Trickle-down Raeganomic theory and shove it up your ass"!!!!!!

3. $165 million less will do nothing.
Just don't give them ANY money.

6. AIG could close its door tomorrow and these hogs would still get their millions.
These guys do not give a fig about the company as anything, but as a source to rip others off.

4. Let's just take up a collection... here's a penny. (1c)
If everyone in the world gave a penny, how great would that be.

Then again, if everyone in the world even gave a s**t about AIG, that would be a miracle.

5. "The AIG Bonus" ( the new ) "What Now Cartoon"
"I'm outraged, OUTRAGED", like most of America, outrage is the word on most lips when we hear about these pigs at AIG and their un-deserved bonus gift to themselves. I devoted my latest cartoon to these jackals and their outrageous behavior.
it's up on my site now
