3. Chris Dodd you Lying piece of crap.....
Question to Mr. Dodd: How could you write language into a bill against the bonuses if you didn't know they existed?

Who was it in the Treasury that came to you and said "kill" this bill? You said you don't remember their names? (Like Al Capone doesnt remember Elliott Ness.. just slips my mind)

Was it Geithner? Bernake.?

I am so sick of these lying, cheating politicians... I don't think I can stand it anymore.

2. chris dodd is nothing but a financial institution corporate enabler...........
that should resign or be removed from office immediately. Since this is unlikely to happen, it is up to the voters of Connecticut to make sure this crook doesn't have another term in office.

tsk tsk tsk when a company's resources are shown to give you almost nine-thousand dollars a month, it ain't chump-change for someone in a state-level position. That's a couple salaried employees at the very least. Maybe it's part of the stimulus to save jobs. HA!

If you start to really think about it, without Obama, the Democratic Party elite does have a fair share of idiots. No wonder Bayh is making a power grab.

7. Dodd Should Resign in Disgrace
Chris Dodd was bought by AIG. He was the recipient of over $100,000 in campaign donations from AIG. Dodd should give the money back before he demands that that the AIG execs give back their bonuses. Chris Dodd is a hypocrite. He should resign. The core problem in our country is that those elected to represent us (Republicans and Democrats alike) have been bought by the corporations.

8. Well, if Dodd put this into the bill, then Dodd had better get the money back.
Otherwise, he is finished politically. I really liked him. During the campaign, Dodd talked about his father's role at Nuremburg. He is a nice guy, but he has lost respect. He sold the country out to his supporters at AIG. The taint of this will not go away.
