uh oh

Mccain's "Reform Institute" and AIG (http://www.thenation.com/doc/20081006/ames)

John McCain is making a big show of criticizing the government "bailout" of insurance giant AIG. But it turns out that AIG, which received $85 billion in US tax dollars earlier this week, is one of the largest donors to McCain's pet think tank, the comically named "Reform Institute," which he co-founded in 2001 "in direct response to the millions of Americans who, during the 2000 presidential campaign, expressed profound disillusionment with corrupt fundraising activities."

Apparently, AIG was so troubled over the issue of corrupt fundraising activities that they loaded in as one of the top VIP donors in McCain's nonprofit think-tank, whose website lists AIG in the "over $50,000" donor category--although exactly how much over that $50,000 is still unclear. Nor is it clear why AIG had any business donating so much money to a think tank whose work in no way overlapped with the insurance company's--unless, of course, that money was just meant to gain access to McCain.

How is this a bonus? Does President Obama work for AIG?

talk about hypocrisy!

dems and repubs are both part of the corporate machine that runs america, this is old hat.

i'm still hoping that one day more progressives and conservatives will turn towards the greens and libertarians. the two party system is getting america nowhere.

I believe I saw somewhere that in 2000 Gore and Bush recieved donations from AIG; in 2004 Bush and Kerry recieved donations from AIG, and this year McCain and Obama recieved donations from AIG.

101K is 0.013% of 750M

I have to add how much humor I find in the local right wing defenders of JusticeŠ use of random far right blogs as journalistic sources for their rants.

Also if it was a secret, you wouldn't know, and if you did, you'd probablly be dead... Just sayin'
