You can be sure that the politicans who are so shocked at the level of bonus pay weren't shocked when they were taking campaign contributions from these guys and having their photos taken with them at $1000 a plate fundraising dinners.

It's unfortunate that his honest dealings in commodities were tainted by the other stuff that was going on, but I'm sure somebody as bright and talented as he is, if he's truly untainted by this scandal, can find good employment elsewhere. After all, that's what the rest of us have to do...we get laid off, we either try to find work elsewhere or re-educate ourselves to do something else. I don't agree with the AG's "naming names", which he didn't do in the end, as that violates privacy and puts peoples' lives at risk. But you know what? This guy did very well for himself for many years and it's not like he's the only one who has to pay for somebody else's management decisions...just ask the guys at Circuit City or any other place that went under.
