    Threats to AIG: "We Will Get Your Children" Documents reveal the level of threats against AIG employees

    The anger in the threats against AIG executives is palpable.

    "Get the bonus, we will get your children," someone identified only as "Jacob the Killer" hauntingly writes in an e-mail.
    blame Them For Your Empty Wallet

    His is one of dozens of threats against AIG and its employees that were obtained from Connecticut Attorney General Richard Blumenthal's office under a Freedom of Information Act request by NBC Connecticut.

    Surprisingly, some of those making the threats left their e-mail addresses and phone numbers - making the job of law enforcement officers easier.
    Here are some of the highlights (or rather, low-lights). We've cleaned up some of the nasty language, but you can use your imagination:

    -- All you motherf***ers should be shot. Thanks for f***ing up our economy then taking our money.

    -- Dear Sir: Ya'll should have the balls and come clean and give back the bonuses. I know you would never do this so the gov't ought to take you out back and shoot everyone of you crooked sonofb****es...I would be very careful when I went out side. This is just a warning. If I were ya'll I would be real afraid. Thanks, Bill.

    -- I don't hope that bad things happen to the recipients of those bonuses. I really hope that bad things happen to the children and grandchildren of them! Whatever hurts them the most!!
    -- You f***ing suck. Paying bonuses to the d*****s that made bad bets losing your company billions of dollars. I want to f***ing puke. Publish the list of those yankee scumbags so some good old southern boys can take care of them.

    -- If the bonuses don't stop, it will be very likely that every CEO @ AIG has a bulls-eye on their backs.

    -- We will hunt you down. Every last penny. We will hunt your children and we will hunt your conscience. We will do whatever we can to get those people getting the bonuses. Give back the money or kill yourselves.

    -- All the executives and their families should be executed with piano wire around their necks --- my greatest hope.

    This really comes as no surprise to me, especially with the continuous drumbeat, by liberals, of class and money envy, has finally brought us to this, the first crack of the breakdown of the civility of the people in this country.

    People can’t continually be told that they deserve this or that, until they start to believe it, even if they don’t work for it, bHo is slowly convincing people to take what they want because they deserve it as he preaches his socialist message of spreading the wealth. That gives the unproductive in this country the idea, that it's ok to steal from those that have more (CAUSE THEY WORKED FOR IT), since that's the message they are receiving.

    This is just the beginning and will only get worse with bHo continually throwing fuel on the fire by demonizing those that work hard for a living. I wonder how far down the economic foodchain these people will come until they've decided that working people deserve what they have?

    It's really sad.

    I have a nice story around that. Seems in our agency, those in HQ's in Washington get to split the awards money pot pretty good. About 3% of salaries is set aside to pay awards inside the beltway.

    Outside the beltway, the number is 0.3%.

    I kid you not. I actually got a copy of the memo distributing awards money last year.
    Not privy to the memos you see. I have received them though. Now granted, .5%-2% isn't the millions that the AIG peeps received, but it is still a bonus.

    Rahm Emanuel's profitable stint at mortgage giant
    Short Freddie Mac stay made him at least $320,000


    Before its portfolio of bad loans helped trigger the current housing crisis, mortgage giant Freddie Mac was the focus of a major accounting scandal that led to a management shake-up, huge fines and scalding condemnation of passive directors by a top federal regulator.

    One of those allegedly asleep-at-the-switch board members was Chicago's Rahm Emanuel—now chief of staff to President Barack Obama—who made at least $320,000 for a 14-month stint at Freddie Mac that required little effort.

    And people wonder why we're disgusted with politicians. I guess that's just par for the course for Illinois pols. Nice little chunk of change.

    I work for the DOD and have received bonus' the past 2 years about the size of Frixxxx's. But with NSPS, they give you a bonus in lieu of salary, so you'll high 3 will be smaller, the bonus just makes up for the difference between the salary and the total percent raise approved by Coongrees. So you lose out in your high 3. New employees under NSPS will really miss out on alot of pension because of the high 3 reduction.
