Someone from the government needs to plant evidence from a murder in all of their houses magically find it, and then send these f*cks up state. | | |

I say this is the last straw for McCain because the democrats have run on the premise of rich people being the root of all evil, and the republicans have defended them in the concept of equal fairness. I think this one now sells itself. Its sad, but the boat is sailing. | | |

Tournaments Joined: 0 Tournament Wins: 0 | Re: AIG Execs Take Spa Vacation After Bailout Do you know anything about the insurance industry?? AIG is one of the strongest companies in the insurance market. They make money hand over fist. Their FINANCIAL market, such as investments and retirements and etc.. They lost their asses and hid it from the investors. Those guys did not go on this trip. They are the ones who got bailed out, not the ones who went on this spa trip.
Not only that, a trip of this magnitude is planned months in advance. Hell maybe years. It's not as if they figured "well hell, we just took billions in taxpayer money, let's send our execs next week!"
These guys did nothing wrong. | | |

Either way they are part of the same parent company that is getting bailed out. In most companies, when one section of the business is having enough trouble to effect all of the others, there is belt-tightening everwhere.
These execs should be smart enough to know that this was extremely bad PR. | | |
