GOP Senator Tells AIG Leadership to "Resign or Commit Suicide": This Man Needs a SHRINK!

Is GOP Senator Charles Grassley out of his friggin' mind?

He was expressing his extreme displeasure with AIG executives over the fact that they're talking about giving out millions in taxpayer-funded dollars to themselves for a very poor job, when he committed a HUGE blunder.

He said in a radio interview that they should either resign or go out the "Japanese way", meaning killing themselves.

I'm very unhappy with these idiot companies too, but I can't and won't agree with someone telling someone else to kill themselves, under ANY circumstances. I have no respect for Senator Grassley or for what he said.

If he can't get a handle on his emotions, perhaps he should resign and let someone with MUCH more maturity and self-control take charge of his seat. His spokespeople are out doing damage control now, but some things are best left unsaid to begin with. He SCREWED UP, and offended God knows how many families who are dealing the issue of suicide.

Suicide is too touchy of an issue for it to be thrown carelessly around by a politician who probably knows nothing about it, is insensitive to the needs of others, and can't communicate without revealing his utter stupidity.

Idiot!

Iranian Plan to Fingerprint Americans Entering Their Country is Fine: But Who's More Likely to Send Suicide Bombers to Attack the Other?

Iran's parliament recently passed a law that mirror-images a U.S. law (that allows for fingerprinting of all Iranian nationals entering U.S. territory) with a law that requires all Americans entering Iran to likewise be fingerprinted. Both sides require that the other's citizens go through extensive background checks. The measure is now before the Iranian Guardian Council for final approval.

Question: is it more likely that Iran would send suicide bombers to the U.S. to hit American targets, or would America send suicide bombers to Iran to attack Iranian interests?

Who was it who said they had 40,000 suicide bombers ready for attacks against Western targets if there is a U.S./Iranian military confrontation over Iran's nuclear program? It sure wasn't the U.S. who said that.

The Iranians are free to do what they want to control entry of foreign nationals into their country, but they should acknowledge that the U.S. has that same right, especially in the face of their threats.
