Business As Usual at AIG

American International Group, that now famous insurer that spent much of the past few months begging the government for tax dollars to the tune of $85,000,000,000 because its foolish executives were too stupid to run the operation properly, decided just a few days after it did receive its corporate welfare check to send a number of the executives from its largest life insurance company to the exclusive St. Regis resort in southern California.

The tab, which included $23,000 for spa treatments, totaled more than $440,000. President Bush is angry, but probably not angry enough to go knock on the door of the CEO.

I have an idea...send those dirty bastards a letter that demands a refund of a couple hundred mil or so because, when anyone asks for and receives money from the taxpayers to save their sorry butts from failure, they should not continue to operate their business as usual by laughing it up over caviar and foot rubs at the St. Regis.

It is time to bang some heads. Until that happens these whiz kids are just going to continue laughing at the taxpayers while celebrating the success of their glorious prank. Obviously the message was not received the first time around.
