#2 Lesson. When you are caught out telling a lie, tell another story fairly close but with enough subtle differences to make it distinguishable and then add in a lot of motherhood stuff. Then talk really quickly jumping all over the place and leave the questioner gasping.

Wouldn't it be simple for a questioner to just say " Doddy baby, why did you lie?"

#4 Any member of Congress who voted for that bill deserves the same level of opprobrium currently being aimed at Dodd. They didn't write it or read it, but they voted for it.

#5 Let me be clear -- I was completely unaware of these AIG bonuses until I learned of them last week.

Translation: Even though Im the Chairman of the Senate Banking Committee Treasury wonks, my staff,and lobbyists wrote the damn thing and I didnt bother reading it.
