I Wonder If President Obama Will Put Out an APB for ‘Suicide Bombers’

George Stephanopoulos reports via Twitter that AIG’s top three financial-products executives and several other officials resigned yesterday, giving the reason “fear for safety.”

.....people in Connecticut ARE SO STUPID to re-elect Dodd ......ILLEGAL LOANS from Countrywide, a HUGE ESTATE in IRELAND after being a "public servant" .......and now this......WHERE DID HE GET THE MONEY?????

Sen Dodd (D-Conn) is THE lawmaker who legislated protection for AIG bonuses. The question is what Dodd got in return for approving the AIG bonuses----this schlemiel Dodd does nothing unless he gets his. Read on.

The Nov 9, 2008 Hartford Courant reported federal agents are investigating deals mortgage giant Countrywide Financial's co-founder Angelo Mozilo made to Dodd. Since the Dodd story broke in June, the five-term senator has offered contradictory fragments of explanations and intentions.

Dodd gallops the gamut from calling the allegations of special treatment "outrageous" to pledging repeatedly and specifically to release documents related to the $800,000 in sweetheart deals he got from Countrywide.

Still claiming "there's nothing there," Dodd refuses to say whether his Senate campaign committee's payments of $60,000 last summer to a Washington law firm----- which has a history of representing Democratic senators in trouble-----were for his defense in the Senate ethics investigation of his dealings with Countrywide.

Dodd suggested, before he fled to his third home in Ireland in August, that Countrywide was not cooperating in providing information.

Dodd still claims there was nothing unusual about the $800,000 in mortgages he got from Countrywide in 2003, but records refute that, too. Documents indicate that Dodd was getting a mortgage of $276,150 on his second home in Connecticut on July 3, 2003. The amount was reduced to $275,042 and the mortgage he was refinancing was paid off.

Dodd and his wife also got a home equity loan on their Connecticut property in East Haddam from Countrywide that day. But the course those loans took was very strange.

============================================

For nearly a year and a half, Countrywide failed (or declined) to secure its interest in Dodd's home by taking the ordinary and essential step of presenting the documents to the local town clerk and recording them in the land records.

The standard routine is for the homeowner to sign the loan documents, the borrowed money is sent to the lender being paid off and the new mortgage is recorded on local land records within a few days.

Dodd, however, signed some (but not all) of his loan documents himself.

Agents of Countrywide signed his $275,042 Connecticut mortgage. His previous mortgage with Countrywide was paid off but the new mortgage did not appear on the local land records for an astonishing 16 months.

For nearly a year and a half, Countrywide failed (or declined) to secure its interest in Dodd's home by taking the ordinary and essential step of presenting the documents to the local town clerk and recording them in the land records. This is exceedingly rare in the mortgage business. Too bad for Dodd mortgages leave detailed paper trails.

Now, it's likely that Dodd is on his hands and knees pleading with Obama to call off the Feds. That's why we need to take other routes to see that justice is done.

For example----Dodd (and his wife and family) are probably enrolled in high-roller comp programs at Conn casinos (and/or in other gambling venues). These programs show every nickel high rollers bet---including wins on which high rollers may not have paid taxes.

Casinos are very tightly regulated. They are more than happy to cooperate with authorities---to protect their licenses.

Casinos would also have records on the amount of untraceable casino chips Dodd (his wife and his family) received-----maybe gifts from AIG or Dodd's pal Angelo.

Authorities should also inquire if Dodd wire-transferred--- or if AIG wire-transferred---monies into Dodd's casino account, and if taxes were paid on these monies.

Another possibility: Dodd, AIG, and Angelo, may have used NETeller Plc to illegally convert monies that were then transferred offhore---to overseas gambling companies, for their personal use later. NETeller is an Isle of Man-based payment processor for gambling Web sites (suspected of having operations in the US Virgin Islands---a notorious money-laundering bank haven).
