How do these guys look themselves in the mirror? Christopher Dodd spends the past couple of days categorically denying he wrote the language protecting AIG's bonuses, insisting the language was inserted by persons unknown, by the Treasury Department, by other members. Now, cool as a cucumber, he says he and the administration actually wrote the language together a month and a half ago, Of course! Silly him. How could he have ever forgotten?!

Better question: What did administration promise him?
