Reply #82: Pls. see posts 49 and 81. Are you sure someone did something "wrong?" Something is not [View All]

morally or legally wrong bc Du'ers disagree with it.

I'm guessing at least 60% of posters here don't fully understand AIG's business or the bailout, let alone what the legal obligations were under bonus agreements; and that is a very conservative percentage. Even less really understand the law of contracts, even though everyone on this board fancies himself or herself an expert on all legal matters. (Wonder why lawyers bother with 3 years of law school and about ten years as associates in law firms before they work unsupervised by a partner?)

IMO, this is another hatchet job by a very lazy media and I think everyone here should take a breath before demanding Dodd's resignation, especially while a Republican is Governor of Connecticut, with power to appoint Dodd's replacement and the other Senator from Connecticut is LIEberman. We post here daily about Coleman and Franken, yet we can't seem to wait to hand this seat over on a knee jerk reaction.

On edit: I tried to edit my prior post to say that I had thought better of blaming either Dodd or Obama and to refer everyone to posts 49 and 81, but the time for editing had passed.
