« Bailout Bonus Brouhaha: The Sheister Heisters Of AIG (Video and Links For 3-18-09) »

It can help to think of AIG as a warm, cuddly puppy with a red bow that occasionally has accidents. 

Five new videos and 17 links are after the jump.

David Shuster is an outstanding journalist. He shows his fairness and grasp of AIG nuance as he questions the honesty of Obama's populist response to the AIG bonuses. Great work. (Full disclosure: David and I are childhood friends.)

 

Keith Olbermann does an excellent and fair review. This is the best of all the videos as a reaction round-up.  Bonuses and dividends with taxpayer bailout funds are never a good idea.

March 18 (Bloomberg) -- A $1.3 billion package of securities backed by Nissan Motor Co. auto loans became the first small piece of what Federal Reserve officials say may grow into a $1 trillion effort to unfreeze business and consumer lending.

Nissan’s planned bond sale marks the debut of the Fed’s Term Asset-Backed Securities Loan Facility, or TALF. The securities will likely price on March 19, the deadline for investors to apply to the Fed for loans to buy the debt, according to a person familiar with the sale who declined to be identified because terms aren’t set.

Liddy has been reading this site. He mentioned outrage and said statements were potentially a safety matter for execs who received bonuses. Thus, he refused full disclosure. I am still laughing.......How lame.
