I believe Dodds inserted a provision into the Stim. bill to protect the exect’s bonuses. He now has no recollection of his own provision but....it is within the bill.

From page H1412 of the Final Stimulus Bill, ``SEC. 111. EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION AND CORPORATE GOVERNANCE: "(iii) The prohibition required under clause (i) shall not be construed to prohibit any bonus payment required to be paid pursuant to a writte employment contract executed on or before February 11, 2009, as such valid employment contracts are determined by the Secretary or the designee of the Secretary."

Ah that Bill was signed by Obama...

So is Obama saying he signs things that he has no idea what is in it? I think that makes him the most naive President in the history of this country.

Didn’t he take the time to read it after he said it was so important that we RUSH RUSH RUSH it through. No he didn’t read it, his staff didn’t read it, no one read it they just signed away our children and grandchildrens inheritance.

and now the Soviets and China are taking advantage of this crisis to which they will actively pursue the destruction of this country. Will Obama go along willingly? Remember all totalitarian minds think alike (Never let a good crisis go to waste)
