Grassley Suggests AIG Execs Should Kill Themselves

Where does the GOP dig up these folks? I'm sure there are some AIGers who are distraught over what has taken place and kidding about suicide is inappropriate and cruel. We have yet to hear from any of the AIG workers but I imagine they've got to be feeling the brunt of America's anger. Grassley's probably going to be apologizing for this tomorrow:
Politico: Sen. Charles Grassley is so angry over AIG bonuses that he says the executives should resign or kill themselves.

In a comment aired this afternoon on WMT, an Iowa radio station, Grassley (R-Iowa) said: “The first thing that would make me feel a little bit better towards them if they’d follow the Japanese model and come before the American people and take that deep bow and say I’m sorry, and then either do one of two things — resign, or go commit suicide.”
