Another great point this is like double dipping for them. Oh yah! I forgot there was a contract, now we know that contracts have to be honored as Mr. Summers told us. It just keeps getting worse.

They're not going to get the payout from the bonds and the $ from AIG. Think of it as a margin account and AIG is getting margin calls because the bonds they are insuring are getting closer to default. AIG will eventually get the bonds and receive the payout on the bonds (whatever the bonds actually payout).
