Watchdog: Treasury and Fed failed in AIG oversight


Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner is "ultimately responsible" for
regulators' failure to rein in massive bonus payments at American International Group because he led the agencies that provided AIG's lifelines, according to a bailout watchdog.

Geithner was president of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York before taking over at Treasury in January. He has said he did not learn until March about the $1.75 billion in bonuses and other compensation promised to AIG employees. But Geithner's subordinates at the New York Fed learned of the payments in November, according
to Neil Barofsky, the special inspector general for the $700 billion financial bailout.

Even if no one told Geithner about the payments, "this is a failure of communication and a failure of management," Barofsky told the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform on Wednesday. Geithner has been "the head of an organization that was involved in the bailout of AIG" since last September, he added.

A Treasury Spokeswoman would not address the comments about Geithner's leadership. She said in a statement that the Obama administration's pay czar continues to develop
compensation plans for AIG and the other companies that received the costliest bailouts.

The proposed Obamacare health plan taxes, fees and charges start 3-5years ahead of any effective date of the program. Some item start in
2013 and some in 2015.


that is some creative voodoo accounting by the Obama staff.
Obama does love to hear himself talk.
