And start working on what they are going to do about all the other bonehead bonus's like the one's Fannie Mae and Freddie are due to get. I am betting most would give it back and the rest, write it off to the stupidity of this adminstration and pray to God they have learned early that it's not so easy to pulled this off and learn to read before signing, and quit just doing whatever Obama and Geithner tell them to do.
