Must be a typo here -
President Nicolas Sarkozy, a firm believer in close friendship with the United States, first announced plans to rejoin the command in late 2007.

Shameless. No conscience, no compass. The consummate Democrat:
"Senator Barack Obama received a $101,332 bonus from American International Group in the form of political contributions according to Opensecrets.org. The two biggest Congressional recipients of bonuses from the A.I.G. are - Senators Chris Dodd and Senator Barack Obama."

How does Obama defend secretly disarming commercial pilots?
I thought the entire country, after 9-11, was on board for allowing pilots to be armed and protect their passengers from hijackers.

Democrats - criminal or incompetent?
"While the Senate was constructing the $787 billion stimulus last month, [Senator] Dodd [Democrat - Conn.] added an executive-compensation restriction to the bill. That amendment provides an 'exception for contractually obligated bonuses agreed on before Feb. 11, 2009' — which exempts the very AIG bonuses Dodd and others are now seeking to tax...Separately, Sen. Dodd was AIG’s largest single recipient of campaign donations during the 2008 election cycle with $103,100, according to opensecrets.org."

Some good laughs here. The NY Times is also circling the drain. Quoting them on this or any other serious matter with political ramifications is a bit like asking Bernie Madoff if he knows of a safe haven for your cashola.

I'm not worried about people at AIG being demonized the way Obama demonized Rush Limbaugh. If they are guilty they are guilty. I'm worried we have a president who can't pass up the chance to fan the class war fires, even when it will impede solving big problems which have ramifications far, far beyond the narrow concerns of the tax cheats and thugs in his cabinet/re-election committee.
From the article:"It's a mob effect," one senior executive said. "It's putting people's lives in danger."
Taxpayers, like it or not, now basically own a large percentage of this corrupt operation.
How does burning it down or scaring off those who hold the keys and know the secrets (and if guilty will probably gladly sing, I would think) benefit ordinary Americans?
Again, Obama is not instilling confidence. This is not leadership. Stoking the fires here is just stupid.

Brilliant. Real leadership from our activist president. Apparently still in campaign mode (does he know any other?) he just can't stop with the class war b.s. he has to endlessly engage in to impress the far Left now controlling his party. Demonize these AIG people before they can do their jobs.
"Senior managers submitted their resignations. Some employees didn't show up at all."
"It's a mob effect," one senior executive said. "It's putting people's lives in danger."
"...But company officials contend that the uproar is scaring away the very employees who understand AIG Financial Products' complex trades and who are trying to dismantle the division before it further endangers the world's economy. "It's going to blow up," said a senior Financial Products manager, who spoke on condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to speak for the company. "I have a horrible, horrible, horrible feeling that this is going to end badly."

Cheney is right though. This administration worries more about the rights of terrorists than it does the safety of the American public it is pledged to protect.
It's also now clear that Obama and his fellow ideologues care even less for the health and welfare of those Americans who fight terrorists and guard violent enemy combatants - sorry - 'people who misunderstand Islam violently.'
Proof?
Just ask the leader of America's largest veterans' group:
The leader of the nation’s largest veterans organization says he is “deeply disappointed and concerned” after a meeting with President Obama today to discuss a proposal to force private insurance companies to pay for the treatment of military veterans who have suffered service-connected disabilities and injuries. The Obama administration recently revealed a plan to require private insurance carriers to reimburse the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) in such cases.

Gitmo houses jihadis from many different nations. If its continued operation only 'fuels' recruitment that would seem to confirm that militant Islam is transnational, the Bush - Cheney 'Neo-Con' worldview vindicated.
