AIG profitable?

According to Money.CNN.Com, AIG is Profitable again! I'm glad to hear that happy days are here again, except... wasn't AIG "profitable" just before the credit default swap debacle? So this supposed "great news" lends me to wonder: What parlor tricks could they possibly be using to try and keep the very charitable, big raise giving, drunk on their too big to fail status, throw a party after the tax payers bailed them out AIG going?


From CNN.com (commentary added by us):

"The troubled insurer said it continues to benefit from stabilization in the housing (what housing stabilization?) and credit markets (you mean the ones that are so frozen that small and medium sized businesses still can't get loans?), but future quarters will continue to be volatile (at least a little truth)."
