Senator Dodd's a liar: bonuses are his fault

This buffoon (after initially lying about it) admitted that he placed language in the stimulus bill that excluded these bonuses from a spending cap. What a scumbag.

Senator Chris Dodd should be removed from office. One, for being an idiot. Two, for wasting millions of our dollars. Three, for lying to the American people. Four through ten, for being a liar.

Alternative punishment: He should have to take out a personal loan and pay those bonuses out of his own pocket. Of course, considering his code of ethics, he's likely stolen that much money and salted it away. He probably could pay it out of pocket.


While we're at it...I think Barney Frank should be sent to a women's prison. I can't think of a more horrific fate for him.

I have to agree with you about Dodd & Frank. Two crooks who forget who they work for.

He did this by the request of the Odrama admin.

Yeah, it is all Obama's fault. :laugh: How much did Bush give AIG? Hmm? Oh yeah...$85 Billion in Sept.

"As many know, the administration was, among others, not happy with the language. They wanted some modifications to it," he said. "They came to us, our staff, and asked for changes, and the changes at the time did not seem that obnoxious or onerous."

Dodd said he was unaware of the AIG bonuses at the time the bill was being written back in early February. He also said he has no reason to believe Treasury officials making the argument knew about the AIG bonuses.
When asked how administration officials have this kind of leverage over members of Congress, Dodd said, "The administration has veto power. ... No one suggested a veto to me, I don't want to imply that to you. But certainly that's not an insignificant tool."

While Dodd SAYS the Obama administration is at fault...

YOU HAVE TO CONSIDER THE SOURCE OF THAT STATEMENT.
It came from a LIAR.

Please don't misconstrue this to think that I am defending Obama...
I am not... but I don't trust Dodd, Frank, Pelosi, or Reid.. as far as I could throw them.. They open their mouth and outflows lies and deceit.

So far.. Obama is doing everything he said he would.. (which is one reason I didn't vote for him) and the one thing he has not done is lie...

Has Odrama denied it? Dodd has been all over the news announcing the admins request for change.

If congress can change these guys employment contract then what is to stop them from cutting your pay?

However...Dodd has lied about everything else. Why trust him now?

Also...I'm no fan of our current president...however; I think we should refer to him by his correct title, not "Odrama."

I do not need to trust him. Odrama has yet to rebut it. Since it is easily taken care of his lack of inaction speaks volumes.

I do not care what you think about his "title". He supports the slaughter of millions of unborn children in an unlimited fashion. He talks down the economy when it suits his need to get a bill passed and then talks it up to make himself look good. He has lied about lobbyists, he continues to try to bring in to his admin those who are questionable. I could go on but he will get no respect from me. It appears you will just have to look the other way.

Well, for one thing, my employer is smart enough to not get tangled up with the Government by taking funds from them.

This is what happens when Socialism takes root.

The Fed. Government now "owns" private businesses...

It is also what happens when you throw out the constitution.

It's a contest to see who can be the biggest liar. Dodd or Obama.
