It's hard not to sympathize with the sentiment.

Actually, he should be sued by tax payers for taking compensation while his company is going bankrupt while he had millions. He is definitely not a Lee Iacocca. That's very sad, that he doesn't care about his employees and was exercising as if nothing was happening and as if people weren't losing their jobs.

He got off too easy. Maybe he had a headache for the rest of the day. I think even if he had gotten the beating of his life, it wouldn't have been enough.

The plot thickens! There was a Bush family member in an executive position. A Bush and a corporate weasel! Stupid and shady are hardcoded into that family's DNA.

Curious as to why the gov't isn't investigating Fannie and Freddie? There must be some good dirt hiding in there!

He should be lucky that he only got KO'd.
Some of my friends in the bloogersphere have taken an interest in bringing back the guillotine. I hear production of guillotines in France has increased since September.

I think the ass-whoopin' was a bit excessive. The CEO Robber Barons should be made to perform Hara-Kiri, so as to least preserve some honor here.
