Are the AIG bonuses a tipping point?
to where we can no longer get anything done in Congress.The money for the bonuses we are talking about is miniscule compared to what AIG did with the initial money which was to funnel it to places unknown until now.

1. I hope it is when
it finally sinks in with the masses that these peole are sociopaths and consider themselves above and apart from the people they take their money from.

2. Sadly yes. The politicians can't WAIT to get in front of a mic on this
The M$M is helping them shape the non-story of the bonuses, whipping up that useful 'populist' storm, while BILLIONS get gobbled up by the Ruling Class black hole.

It's disgusting.
