Editor;

I was not surprised to read your column published March 17. Your feined outrage over the AIG bonuses is straight out of the Obama playbook and talking points.

Your and the Dems ploy, to distract, deceive, and confuse, may be effective for some of the citizenry, but a growing number of concerned citizens are turning away from propaganda rags like the Picayune Item and tuning into Fox news and Rush radio for truthful information.

Obama, the Dems, and you, Mister Sullivan, asked for and rushed through the stimulus package without time to read or debate. Now you are upset with some of the details you had passed. Your protest rings hollow to me.

This is just the tip of the iceberg. As time goes by, more of the onerous details of that bill will come to light, including information as to who planned and received the AIG bonuses, (which I understand is 1/10th of 1% of the stimulus package).

This ship of state is on a collision course with an iceberg and Obama is at the helm calling for full steam ahead!
