Government confiscation of private property and wealth through intimidation. Lovely. I guess they were afraid Obama would give ACORN the nod to torch their homes. Did Hilter burn homes?

Seems to me it was the government's money to begin with. Those execs would be out of work without the bailout. In any event, it went back to AIG, not the government. What do ACORN or Hitler have to do with anything, aside from proving Goodwin's Law?

They had legal contracts. Those that kept the money will continue to keep it. A law made up to take it away is unconstitutional. You ACORN hitsquad SOB's could kiss my white A@@ if it were mine.

I never have nor ever will be associated with ACORN.

I work in local government. If I got a contract for thousands in bonuses paid for by taxpayers, you bet there would be hell to pay. Conservatives would be the first to scream government waste. Yet it's OK in the private sector, even when they are distributing public funds, too?
