        If you take the time to read the actual contract, there were both  
performance-based bonuses and retention-based bonuses. Not a penny was  
paid out on the performance side of things, for obvious reasons. The  
retention bonus required that the person stay employed through a given  
date in order to qualify; nothing more.

        While I agree that taking millions for merely showing up for work is  
repulsive when your company is sucking the Treasury dry and millions  
are suffering because of your actions, it isn't helpful to wrongly  
claim that these bonuses had anything to do with performance.
