AIG Execs Call On Congress To Resign Or Commit Suicide
AIG Vice Chairman and Chief Marketing Officer Robert G. Krebs suggested that Senators Chris Dodd (D-CT), Charles Grassley (D-IA) and Rep. Barney Frank (D-MA) take a “Japanese approach” toward accepting responsibility for the collapse of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac by resigning or killing themselves.
“In all candor, I don’t know why they’re so exercised by some bonuses. These pathetic excuses for politicians cost the taxpayers trillions of dollars and, worst of all, they’re still in power.”
Honestly either way is OK with me. If they could convince a few news anchors to go along for the ride so much the better.
