Solyndra Obamatons Invoke the Fifth Amendment

According to an article on  QCOnline, the CEO and CFO of the now bankrupt Obama Green Jobs Poster child Solyndra, have refused to testify at Congressional hearings involving the Team Obama pushed half a billion dollars in Special Government loans. They have  instead opted to invoke the fifth amendment of right to silence to avoid self-incrimination.  Oops! Another set of Obama supporter and campaign contributors to toss under the Obama Bus. Worse yet, the whole debacle has created a red-flag situation where other fledgling Solar Energy corporations are struggling to get loans.

 I am not a believer or disciple of the Al Goracle Global Warming theology. But I do think that solar energy has a future as a potential energy source. Though I have no doubt that as we harness the energy there will be alternative to fossil fuel environmental issues to study. But like any good business that offers alternative products – solar energy will offer competition to the current energy markets. That is a good thing as competition creates better affordability  for consumers of each product in the game. Obama’s desire to play politics and create a reelect me poster child for his green jobs initiative has ended up with Team Obama screwing the pooch for the whole industry.

The problem with Team Obama is they have sought to ram their Green theme down the throats of the public and industry as they did with Obamacare. Instead of trying to intentionally drive up the cost of traditional energy sources while force feeding a Green Energy Revolution to the US consumer – Team Obama should have taken a free market approach and allowed market competition to drive the Solar Energy Markets. But Progressive Liberal and Socialist Wannabe Obama – ever the spin doctor politician, couldn’t resist another power grab for a new Big Brother Government Bureaucracy. He helped create this magical fantasy image of Solyndra to solidify his base and attempt to woo new Obamaton disciples. You have to wonder now that his magical Green fantasy has turned into a hideous nightmare – just how bad it will hinder startup and future investments for  the fledgling Green Industries that might have eventually been able to compete in a free market.

The Stuff That Dreams Are Made Of

Prospero:

Our revels now are ended. These our actors,

As I foretold you, were all spirits, and

Are melted into air, into thin air:

And like the baseless fabric of this vision,

The cloud-capp’d tow’rs, the gorgeous palaces,

The solemn temples, the great globe itself,

Yea, all which it inherit, shall dissolve,

And, like this insubstantial pageant faded,

Leave not a rack behind. We are such stuff

As dreams are made on; and our little life

Is rounded with a sleep.

We now take you from our Shakespearean amusement to the real theatrical world of Rock Island County Illinois.

Can you smell in your dreams? It sure smells like a putrid stench of nepotism is currently enveloping the Rock Island Co. Democratic Politburo! During a high level of US unemployment, where the average time between jobs is around 40 weeks, and in a job climate where many professional workers are taking jobs that they are overqualified for – just in order to put bread on their family’s table; the son of RICO Democrat Politburo heavyweight and former US Congressman, Philobluster Hare- has a new job as Assistant Warden  at the East Moline IL Correctional Center.    -It is probably only a coincidence that the head warden of the prison is also the head of the Rock Island Democratic party.-      According to a QCOnline article Philobluster’s son – Lou Hare, whom has a Masters Degree in theater, managed to be hired (or should we probably say – appointed?) to this high level position at the prison, after only a month of unemployment! I can easily imagine in this current job environment that there are many learned people with law enforcement and correctional backgrounds asking themselves – how did an individual like Hare‘s son , versed in a thespian background, manage to leap and bound over other individuals more practiced in dealing with issues abound in a Medium Security Prison! It surely smells like the RICO Democratic Politburo’s, Good Ol’ Boy Political Nepotistic Network, hard at work. Good Ol’ Boy Politics- surely, The stuff that dreams are made of.

Team Obama Still Not Ready for Prime Time

Almost three years into his Presidency and Barack Obama continues to prove –> He is not ready for the  prime time leadership role of President of the USA. No real big surprises there – except to the mindless Obamaton disciples that continue to chant his socialist-wannabe mantras.

One of the most “toot your own horn”  heralded pieces of the Obama administration – Obamacare – is creating even more Red Flags.  The hard sell  tactics by the Obama-Pelosi-Reid of  -We must pass it before we analyze the substance- is looking more and more like a used  car sales transaction where the salesman is trying to pass off a decommissioned taxi as belonging to a little old lady that only drove it to church on Sunday! The latest information is that Team Obama rammed this legislation through over the top of their own experts warnings that the long term care portion would be another underfunded government bureaucracy. Go figure! It helps make his current – “we must pass this legislation now” – jobs creation act spin smell like a three day old dead fish floating in the water. Unlike the attention given to Obamacare, this current Obama rush to pass legislation needs to be gone over with a fine tooth comb. I am sure it is all once gain–> Shovel Ready productions.

We also continue to see the failings from his past job creations bill – the Obama stimulus legislation. The Obama Administration’s previous rush to promote and politically spin his blind worship of Green Technology has led to the taxpayers being stuck with a half-billion dollar loan to the Solyndra Corporation which has political ties to Obama. No surprise there either, though if Team Obama follows past their history – they will look for someone to “throw under the bus” in an effort to distance the Solyndra debacle from President Obama. It just offers the knowledge that Obama does not need his old political pal Tony Rezko as part of the Obama inside circle, to continue to get the smell of dirty backroom deals on his political career.

Meanwhile as mentioned over on the QC Ghost’s and Just Cruisin’s local blogs President Obamas campaign has created a website devoted to identifying people whom criticize the Obama Administration. Wow – Obama has publicly embraced the Orwellian culture of Big Brother spying. I suppose that goes hand-in-hand with reports from former CNN reporter and current Fox News reporter Ed Henry that the Obama Administration “Freaks Out” when asked tough questions. The longer Obama is in office the more deep Team Obama escalates into the state of Paranoia! I have long compared him to Jimmy Carter but the longer Obama is in office the more Obama channels Richard Nixon when it comes to dealing with the public, any non-worshiping press and critics of his administration. But instead of breaking into the Watergate Hotel with White House Plumbers- Obama has chosen to use the modern technology of the Internet to recruit spies for his reelection cause.
