Let’s not forget that the majority of so-called “elected” representatives are taking bribes from lobbyists, PACs, and a myriad of special interest groups. Tom Daschle was a two-bit lawyer from South Dakota,but when he left Congress some years later (felt like a hundred years to me), he was a millionaire. How does that happen when they make approximately $165K a year? Remember, next time–NO INCUMBENTS!

“These people may have a right to their bonuses, they don’t have a right to their jobs forever,”

Out of touch, much, Barnacle Frankenfurter? Wasn’t it your crowd that was recently talking about the Pork in the Budget being such a small amount of the over all total? Well, what percentage of $178 Billion, is the $165 Million in bonuses? Yet, you’re all up in the a$$ about the AIG bonuses, but public outcry over the amount of earmarking in the budget is misplaced anger?

Didn’t your butt-buddy, Schumer tell us we should ignore the “small stuff,” and the inconsequential? So, when is doling out $168,000,000 in bonuses any different than doling out the same amount in taxpayer money to the F.O.D.‘s?

Franks has the audacity to proclaim “accountability for thee, but not for me!” Of course he can’t be voted out, because to do so would be anti-gay, right?

How about the “bonuses” that Dodd, Obama, Frank, etc. received in return for their cover-up of the fraud at Fannie Mae & Freddie Mac?

What! You mean these clowns have the temerity to cash their paychecks? I guess there really is no shame left in America.

Is this what Obama was speaking of when he used the word “audacity?”

Nothing new about hypocrisy in Congress. How many of them damned earmarks, yet made sure theirs was still in the omnibus bill?

I don’t understand what they are worried about. They gave AIG the money, AIG gave out bonuses, the government taxes the money and gets it back. What’s the big deal? Perhaps if we were able to keep some of our wages then there would be an issue.
