Former New York Governor Eliot Spitzer made an appearance on The Ed Show Friday. Spitzer weighed in on the scandal surrounding emails from the New York Fed to AIG, telling the bailed insurer to stay quiet about overpaying Wall Street firms with taxpayer money. The emails were sent when current Treasury Secretary Tim Geithner was in charge of the agency.
Headlines about the emails have put the White House on defense. Press Secretary Robert Gibbs defended Geithner Friday, saying that the Treasury secretary was "not involved in any of these emails" and that "these decisions did not raise to his level at the Fed."
Spitzer told Ed that he was skeptical of Gibbs' certainty regarding Geithner's role because the emails have not been released. Neither the House, nor the Senate banking committees have subpoenaed AIG for the messages. Both, according to Spitzer, should be demanding all the emails from AIG, a company that is now majority-owned (77.9 percent) by the U.S. government and in turn, the American people.
Spitzer explained why it's so important for the emails to be released:

Tim Geithner needs to resign, and AIG needs to be completely taken over by the Federal Government, otherwise there will never be any accountability to the American people. After all there should be. We the people, the taxpayers, own 80% of the company.
