And naturally, and succinctly, Hot Air has an excellent summary as well as additional meat (er, links) to tell us about Solyndra’s grant, um, winnings.

You know, I’ve mentioned it before – to others and elsewhere – that this administration headed by Obama, has what I call the Un-Midas Touch. Damned if I’d gamble with these folks.

How many times has the White House handed over lots of our tax money to companies that later failed? Anybody keeping track?

Well, there’s the Caterpillar company, wasn’t that first? But now, with the current one – meaning Solyndra – here we have the FBI investigating the company & the home of its CEO. We hear rumblings how the CEO is such a good contributor to the Obama campaign.

But, oh wait, then why would the FBI raid Gibson and take product – when THAT CEO wasn’t a contributor (yet Gibson’s competition is)????

Perspective, I guess. Not sure I care for 1600’s view on legalities, though. Especially when the prior administration shelved the notion of giving to Solyndra. Yet Obama and company decided not to follow that road correctly.

Amazing.

Remember November 2012.

How Not To Make Jobs

Posted on September 12, 2011 | Leave a comment

And lose all of the confidence from the entire voting public in this country?
(Yeah, I know. Oversimplifying. But somehow, I expect he does not care.)

You raise new regulations (again) that will result in the loss of 500 jobs in Texas.

You raise taxes, and eliminate deductions, on the very people that are the backbone of job creation in this country.

You say a jobs bill is paid for, yet expect to raise $400B more in taxes.

And, somehow, nobody seemed to notice that Congress raised the debt ceiling last Thursday yet again, by $500B. Suspiciously, this figure is remarkably close to the amount the POTUS is claiming his “immediately pass this bill” is already “paid for.”

How can anyone believe this POTUS any more?

Give Back The Money

Posted on September 10, 2011 | Leave a comment

GE was awarded 44 contracts totaling over $46,000,000 and 44 grants totaling more than $79,000,000 from the Obama-Pelosi $757 billion dollar stimulus package.

Today GE announced that it was going to gut its offshore wind-power plans.

h/t GatewayPundit

Is this why GE CEO Jeffrey Immelt was hired by the POTUS, to create jobs and take them away???

I don’t think so, but it sure looks that way now doesn’t it?

In August there were 0 jobs made, or gained, or uh, nothing changed since July on the jobs front. What’s going to happen now, Wall Street? Particularly since this news comes on a weekend?

The lunch itself was Jay Carney.

Excellent job, Jake. Wanna run for President? We could really use a guy like you.

The transcript is here. A fantastic read.

Let Hoffa (and the rest of the Progessive Leftists) know you won’t be intimidated.

Wear a T-Shirt pronouncing you are a:
Proud, Barbarian, SOB, Hobbit, Patriot !!!!!!

That’s what they said, right? So let’s make that real clear.

This link should take you to the shirts spoken above.

Who Are The Workers?

Posted on September 6, 2011 | Leave a comment

No, really. According to Hoffa, at the Labor Day rally, it’s the union members. He says they are going to “get those SOBs.”

Well, guess what? I work for a living, too. And I’d bet good money conservatives do, too. Whether we are union members or not, is irrelevant.

A call to arms? Take who out?

It’s time to ask yourself, what version of America do you love and want for your children and theirs … and what are you prepared to do towards that end?

The Tea Party is not the enemy. Conservatism is not the enemy.

So who, exactly, is the enemy? One mnajor clue.

They lie to us.

More to the point, not all of us recognize that for what it is.

They want to control us.

I thought most of us love our independence, control of our lives, our choice in our futures/jobs/faith/love. Am I wrong? I don’t believe so. And neither does Rush Limbaugh.

New Deepwater Oil Reserves

Posted on September 6, 2011 | Leave a comment

In the Gulf. Question is, when oil is being extracted, will it be ours – or sold to some other country? And, how many resuscitated jobs will be developed?
So far, no answers to those questions yet. But the fascinating thing here is – this discovery was made as a result of recent work on an existing well that was halted over one year ago.

Imagine what our economy, jobs picture and fuel prices could have been – had it not been halted by this administration?

Read the whole thing at Hot Air’s article.
