Legislators questioning Solyndra execs about their bankruptcy and possible White House involvement in getting a gold plated loan deal are cautioned by Henry (I need a good dentist) Waxman (D-CA) Representatives about harassing Solyndra execs as they plead the protection of the 5th amendment not to answer question or risk incriminating themselves.
This is the same Congressman Waxman who has lamblasted the likes of sports figures, Roger Clemens comes to mind, when these people appeared before Congress and failed to kowtow before the cartoonish Waxman.
Solyndra is the third major U.S. solar power company to go out of business, despite Obama Administration efforts to cast solar power as the next boon to our economy and solution to our increasing power needs.
At a minimum, how embarrassing to Obama and his Administration that he threatens to gut the coal industry, makes the U.S. increasingly dependent upon foreign oil, and has his pet alternative energy projects fail,.....one after another. And not only fail, but take American tax payers dollars with it.
In case you just haven't been paying attention the following video will catch you up to speed on the Solyndra mess.
Yes I've been keeping up - and I'm madder than heck about it. I just wonder why the rest of the American public isn't as mad and demanding answers and an expedited investigation by congress.
ReplyDeleteI know the FBI is involved, so Symantac will get prosecuted, but it will take time, just like ENRON did. Although, there was a major public out cry, and then, only then did they go down.
