In a dramatic reversal Wednesday, Sen. Chris Dodd, D-Conn., confessed to adding language to a spending cap in the stimulus bill last month that specifically excluded executive bonuses included in contracts signed before the bill's passage.
Dodd told FOX News that Treasury officials forced him to make the change.

Dodd is always finding a need to correct himself.
He had to pay back for the $250,000 that he receive in campaign contributions. Why is he not giving back his campaign contribution? He is a phuckin crook!
Now that Dodd is pointing his finger at the Obama administration, I’m guessing that this will be dropped from the news cycle in short order.
Maybe Dodd will take Chuck Grassley’s way out now?!
nah nah nah nah...nah nah nah nah...hey heyy..
you know the rest....
You are sure he’ll payback all $250,000? I’m not.
“In a dramatic reversal”.....
Oh it’s drama alright!....It’s the theater of the insane!
These assclowns say one thing one day and go in reverse the next? No problem! WTF? It’s time for torches and pitchforks!
For what it’s worth, the governor of CT is a Republican.
Dumbass Dodd got the biggest contribution from AIG and OBozo was right behind him. Gee! I wonder if that had anything to do with his DRAMATIC REVERSAL? This crap is rediculous!
She’s a RINO.
Yes, but is she does get to make a senate appointment, I doubt if she’ll appoint a democrat.
is=if
Ahh, the lightbulb just went on over my head. I get ya.
Bingo! We have a winner!
I’d volunteer to pass out Jim Jones brand cool aide to any and all congress critters.
The admission smells funny. First it was Dodd, he denied it and said it was Geitner/Summers (which would be a bigger embarrasment to the ObaMaster). Now Dodd admits it? I wonder who made him an offer he couldn’t refuse?
Dodd was outed in the hearing yesterday by AIG CEO. The AIG CEO said that the bonus was in the bill (put in by the Obama Admininstration). What should also concern people greatly is a)that Obama put this in and then deceptively feigned outrage; and, b) that Republicans in Congress didn’t know this was in the bill; and, c) that Dodd and the Democrats blatantly lied about putting this in; and, d) that the corrupt MSM isn’t justifiably screaming from the rooftops as they correctly would if this were a Republican administration or a Republican controlled Congress.
