Just like the AIG bonuses. Congress could have put it in the bill that they weren't allowed to give bonuses, but they purposely left that out of there, and now they are acting like they knew nothing about it. They are acting like they are innocent bystanders while the people on wall street are evil for honoring their contracts. The government is going to save us from something they let happen in the first place.
