Most of us were annoyed at best, outrage at worst, at the AIG bonus debacle. There was plenty of colorful language being tosses about in offices, barrooms and carpools across the land.
Republican Senator Chuck Grassley from Iowa was mad as hell. But he has a microphone.
Hit it Chuck!
Huh...Okay... Interesting imagery Chuck. Well done. High five! Hit me up top!

Funny....
but that would be a bad analogy because many people find that particular experience to be pleasurable---while I haven't hear *anyone* cheer, sigh, etc, about this one....
How dare AIG try to one-up the U.S. Congress in the daily battle of irresponsibility!
Where's my book on Soviet Economic Theory in the 1920's? Ah yes, here it is ... Chapter 1: Imposing a 90% tax on a Bolshevik sandwich.
Tits & tit sucking == good
AIG management == bad.
Simple mathematics really.
(haven't heard...not haven't hear---I guess it's a slow day when no one's around to crack on my typos)
It's an even slower day when all one has to do is go back and reread what one had previously written.
hey...at least someone read what I wrote--even if it was me.
Our tits are being sucked?
Good lord.
If this is true then it's only a matter of time before we all get titty fucked.
Does anyone else see this all happening backwards? First we're fucked and then our tits are sucked? Take it for The Man to forget about foreplay until after the fact.
The representative from Compton was a little more direct - "AIG is butt-fucking the American people, with no vaseline!"
angel, as long as it doesn't mean that The Man is trying to start round two....
and the first round of foreplay was when the economy was booming, people had jobs, and we were all smiling (insert whistling a happy tune here).
Before the giant anvil fell on our heads.....
AIG management has been fingered as phonies.
Your local Iowa correspondent checking in here:
Where we come from, teat-sucking immediately conjures up an image of cute little, but demanding, piglets feeding off a weary sow.
On my farm, one time after weaning a litter of pigs, we had to move the sow, on foot, to another pen. She'd been so drained of calcium during the weeks of feeding that three bones in her legs broke just during the short walk.
So, Grassley is saying that folks getting bailout money are pigs draining the individual taxpayer of resources. They should a) be mindful of their total dependence on individuals and b) should not play fast and loose with money that isn't theirs.
