Believe it or not, AIG has a second retreat planned, on top of this one. you know.. the one where we got ahold of the invoice from the SPA to AIG executives. Paid for by your tax money.. what role did M&C Saatchi New York have in this? As their Agency of Record the chances are they were aware of it… if not the ones behind it… the article cites an external source as the one that stopped the idea… where it started.. we do not know… but we have a good idea.
Well evidently regarding this new Spa trip is to be held at the Ritz-Carlton in California’s Half Moon Bay
AIG considered buying advertisements to explain its position, only to be told by public relations consultant George Sard that it would be “a really bad idea.”
“To spend the taxpayer’s money on an expensive ad campaign to apologize for how you used taxpayer money leaves you open to further attacks,” Sard wrote in an e-mail to Ashooh. Sard, chief executive officer of New York-based Sard Verbinnen & Co., said the message was a private e-mail mistakenly sent to Bloomberg and wasn’t intended to be a public statement.
Meaning that your tax money now goes directly to the Ritz-Carlton …. after first being blown at St. Regis Resort …
I want my 700 billion back… also worth noting… 700 billion is roughly the total credit card debt American taxpayers as a whole have as recently as 2004…. meaning they could of just as easlity bailed most every American.. and the money would of went directly to the same banks anyway…. but it really doesn’t matter right… we don’t have a lobbyist in Washington… he’s too busy at the Ritz…
