THANK YOU for your comments Pat! You brought up a lot of things I hadn't even thought of. With most of us so angry at AIG already, I wonder why, if they are doing nothing wrong, CNN decided to post that story. Just to stir up the hate? That's not right. We need to put blame where its due not just make people look bad for everything. Thanks so much for your insight and generous comments!
