About Obama benefiting from AIG.....he did receive money during the campaign. I don't know if that matters though.

At least in the general scheme of things. My biggest problem is the Obama administration first trying to play the 'dumb' card when the news about the AIG bonuses came out, and then they tried to push all the blame on Dodd.

'Outrage' indeed.
Well, fair enough. A public relations blunder to be sure--but not the sort of thing that attaches a big "FAIL" to your legacy, quite honestly. More of the kind of thing nobody remembers a few weeks later. Just the nature of politics.
