Andrew Cuomo Wimps Out on AIG Names
New York Attorney General Andrew Cuomo has a secret! AIG has given him a list of employees who received controversial bonuses after the insurer's continued bailouts — but he won't name names.
"At this moment, with emotions running high, it is important that we proceed diligently, with care, reflection, and sober judgment," Cuomo said in a statement. Oh, now, after whipping the mob into a froth that has AIG employees fearing for their lives, the politician is concerned about care and judgment. Or maybe he's afraid for his own safety — now that he has that list of names he's been promising the public he'd extract from an unwilling AIG, and he's keeping it from them.
