Pre-bailout, no.

This is a duplicate thread. This information was already presented and debunked.
It was campaign contributions.
I'm sure they were spent already.

You guys need to educate yourselves on presenting honest subjects and on campaign laws.

Holy cripes, did the Republicans HIRE you, OP, to troll the forums in the mentally-incapacitated manner that you do? It seems its ALL you do, ALL day. You must live a very boring existence.

Ok so lets make contracts invalid and make them give the bonus money but those politicians that took money doesnt need to give it back?

Just let taxpayers pay for it all.
