This is the 2nd time that we are hearing that top executives from AIG are having a great time at taxpayer expense, while asking the government for more money.

Neocons are blaming the Whimpo-crats for handling out all this money, but they seem to forget that it was The Great Emperor Bush and his Treasury "stooge", Paulson, who bailed out AIG and it was NOT part of the $700 Billion give-away that Paulson and the Great Emperor wanted later!

This all goes in keeping with the neocon Fascist Nazi Republican thought process that ALL the wealth belongs at the TOP, and anyone who believes in the old "Reaganomics trickle-down" also believes in the tooth fairy and the Easter Bunny!!!!!

So, all you hard-core neocons out there, before pointing the finger at the Whimpo-crats, better start pointing the blame where it REALLY belongs!

The Great Emperor Bush II and his stupidly-loyal neocon Fascist Nazi court are scamming the country BIG TIME and making their last BIG SCORE. Everyone out there is just too blind or stupid to see it!!

As your own Justice Scalia put it: IT''S SETTLED!! LIVE WITH IT!!!

SIG HEIL, WHAT CORPORATE BIG SHOT CAN I "BAIL OUT" NEXT???, BUSH!!!
sig heil, I WANT TO BAIL OUT JOE, THE PLUMBER, EVEN IF HE DOESN''T EXIST!!!, McBush!!!
sig heil, LET''S HOLD ANOTHER "HATE" RALLY!!!, Palin!!!

No words.

Looks like you liberals are engaging in class warfore again. Shame on you!

[lilsarg01]

Did Nancy Pelosi go with them? I wouldn''t be a bit surprised to hear that she did.

" A handful of top executives from American International Group Inc. spent thousands of dollars during a recent English hunting trip, even as the New York-based insurer asked for an additional $37.8 billion loan from the Federal Reserve."
----

And Congress spent an additional $150B on pork, even as the debt decrying entity asked for an additional $750B from the taxpayer "endless piggy bank".

This is happening everywhere in business and even in our government. All out of state travel for the government employees in my state were cancelled. But the fat cats in our state government got to go all over the world at tax payers expense. Its time for the citizens of the USA to uprise and take back our government!

[flight-321]

I think the biggest issue I have with all of this insanity is the lack of control we have over what happens to OUR money that is stolen from our hard earned paychecks that is used for a-holes like this!

We don''t have an option to NOT pay taxes. It''s the law.

The way I see it is that the government obviously does not have the ability to manage our money so why the hell don''t they give it back to us and let us blow it. At least I will be able to enjoy it like the AIG f-ups do!

Our government wants to point fingers and the blame on the tax payers that tend to some how still fork out money to pay not only these corrupt politicians inflated salaries but fund "functions" for their buddies in this manner.

And somehow this is supposed to roll off the backs of taxpayers?

Somehow I feel like they should start paying for the lube because my a.s.s. really hurts from all of this!

So.. how about logging on to aig.com, contact us and tell them how you feel. Venting on here gets you some relief but letting them know how you feel just may make you feel lots better. I did. Maybe if they get an overwhelming amount of "contact us" comments, just MAYBE someone will get the message!!! I''m sick of my money going to "bail out" these greedy, I care nothing for the American citizen who''s giving up what is rightfully theirs, gold-digging, money grubbing azzholes! No one in that company would be there for us if we needed financial bailout, but we had no vote in who our tax dollars goes to. It''s about time for American taxpayer to *** to the Right People!!!

This was an annual event for customers of the AIG property casualty insurance companies in the U.K. and Europe, and planned months before the Federal Reserve Bank of New York''s loan to AIG," company spokesman Peter Tulupman said Wednesday.

WOW! I plan my family vacation almost a year in advance... Due to the downturn in the economy I didn''t get to GO! ALL B.S.!

[worstever2]

hang them all by their balls.

[lilbrother4]

my parents will have to postpone their retirement for another decade....but hey i guess that''s fine as long a s AIG doesn''t have to cancel any functions.

AIG should remember they would all be out of work if it wasn''t for us. And if you''re out of work, you don''t go to any work functions. They wouldnt'' have even had the option of going on the retreats if it wasn''t for us. AIG has no respect for anyone.

all insurance companies are the epitome of evil. deny, deny, deny, or wait you out until you die. this is not really a surprise, just completely insulting.

[usedeqbroker]

No one in Washington wants to be too hard on these guys becasue most of them have been "guests" or shall we say "partied" with them before... and don''t for a minute think anyone up ther will call for jail time for the thieves... they "the politicians" don''t want them to point fingers back and get some jail time for themselves! Yes... American voters need to limit terms of office for Senators and House Represenatives... the longer they hang out up there on the hill... the more they get "chummy" with all the loose money up there and are influenced or bought outright.

[midvale3]

A precondition to bailing out ANY company (insurance, automotive, etc) should be that ALL top executives be FIRED with no severance and the Board of Directors be removed. They are the reason the company is in the situation they are so why in the world do they get a "get out of jail" free card?

[tannerbird]

Stop any money that is going to AIG now this is bullshi!. come nov 4 kick everyone that voted for the money OUT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[donevis-2009]

I guess the term "CANCELED EVENT" doesn''t apply to the "suits".

[joe68sg1]

All in favor of locking up the criminals that are robbing us stand up...
Let''s start with the republiCONS that are "outraged" about this instead of doing anything about it...
The fleecing of middle class taxpayers continues unabated.
