Dodd admits to role in AIG loophole




(CNN) -- After denying having anything to do with crafting language in the stimulus bill that allowed bailed-out insurance giant American International Group to keep its bonuses, Sen. Christopher Dodd admitted that he and the Treasury Department were responsible for the loophole.

Well, I'm shocked that CNN actually ran this story, at all......but I guess it's not exactly anti-Obama so it made it through. I guess CNN doesn't realize that the administration that pressured the bill thru was the Obama administration....wonder how long til they take the article down once they figure that out.

However, I realize why they ran this story, because on TV the banner at the bottom reads "CNN Solves Bonus Mystery", so they are trying to take credit for discovering this. Really??? Nevermind the fact, FoxNews and Sean Hannity, etc - ran it all day yesterday.

Michelle Malkin also blogs on this little gem of a confession.
