Did he want to discuss:
Of course Obama knew about the bonuses before they were paid out. He was too busy appointing culture ministers to trouble himself before the firestorm erupted, though.
Bonus Bonuses: Fannie Mae’s got a similar retention bonus plan. And Fannie got bailed out more than AIG.

UPDATE VIA HOT AIR
I can’t imagine what wisdom Carter has to impart on the Obama administration on national security. How to extend a hostage crisis for over a year? How to look impotent in the face of Russian aggression? Maybe he’s simply valuable as a warning, or a baseline that Obama can easily beat. “Hey, I may be bad at this job, but I’m not this bad.” So far, that’s not terribly obvious.
