Brian Faughnan at RedState tells us that Chris Dodd's wife was collecting checks as a director of AIG Property.  Reports Faughnan:

Senator Dodd, there's been a lot of attention recently to your relationship with AIG. You're the top Congressional recipient of their political donations, they have a major presence in your state, and you sponsored a provision that allowed them to deliver bonuses to many of your constituents. And yet even as you've sworn up and down that you never wanted to protect AIG, and you have no reason to wish to do so, we learn that your wife served on the board of - and was compensated by - an AIG subsidiary?

You've got to wonder what else the esteemed chairman hasn't been telling us!

Could somebody please tell MSM about this; I am sure they will want to spread the word
