As a conservative, I would prefer that the government had not felt the need to bail out AIG. However, I am guessing that many individuals who were involved in implementing the bailout, also would have preferred not to bail out AIG, but felt it was the only option left. So, I think that the most productive course for conservatives is to go forward trying to figure the quickest easiest and least costly way to rid the government of owning AIG, and Fannie May and Freddie Mac rather than getting indignant over the bailouts.
