    First off, why would you give that much money to a company that already has a shady past of not being successful?

    besides that, it just is coincidental that Pelosi's family member is involved very high up in the company.

    what a sham

    $737 million to create 45 jobs.

    Obama and his energy department are (*)(*)(*)(*)ing insane.

    I swear to God, he's trying to sabotage his own campaign. For someone supposedly so smart, he keeps doing really stupid things.

    This is straight up Barrack Obama / Nancy Pelosi corruption.

    He is likely not going to run... what a failure. The Clintons are going to step in.

    45 net permanent jobs. That's $16.33 million per permanent job. heck, let's assume that the company goes bust within the first 12 months (unless the taxpayers are generous again) so we'll count the 600 construction jobs as "jobs" and the numbers are still $1.14 million per temporary job since this firm will implode as well.

    If all they want is voters in Cal to vote Democrat wouldn't it just be cheaper and more productive to multiply the 645 temporary jobs tenfold and instead, send out taxpayer funded checks to 6,450 registered Democrats for $114,000 each and they don't need to do anything except agree to vote Democrat

    I don't buy that at all. The man appears to be too self centered to realize how harmful he is to this country.

    Definition of insanity...doing the same thing over and over again and expecting a different result.

    Hey it's the Chicago way. Besides, if all is normal, then he will get his "Chicago 5", i.e., that's a 5% kickback.....to a numbered account.

    He knows his base will just make excuses for anything and everything he does so he will lose NO votes from them for doing bs like this. Mr Obama will continue to make the taxpayers "sit in the back of the bus" while he rewards his friends and punishes his enemies...

    People need to wake up to the coruption of this administration and stop acting like he can do no wrong.

    Logically you would think even Obama supporters would rebel against that much wasteful spending.

    But I'm not sure how a majority of the voters are reacting to all this.

    I heard that same theory someplace else tonight. I'm thinking there might be something to it.

    I"m not sure either Mac, but I can't understand anyone who can keep defending this kind of spending. It simply is indefensible.

    (And Im sure you read today that the Germans told him and Timmy to ****.)

    With unemployment among Blacks running at 16+%, they SHOULD be outraged at the waste of money.

    Libs should be but they aren't.

    It's as if they have a collective economic death wish.

    The problem is with liberals, they don't care. They don't like the country, so if supporting Obama means more pain and suffering for the American people, than they don't mind.

    The project is to build the world's largest solar thermal generator.

    Obama and his energy department are (*)(*)(*)(*)ing insane not to have funded this years ago.

    This is where future energy lies.

    Duplicitous leftists stick their collective heads in the sand when crony capitalism, incestuous corporatism and taxpayer subsidies enable the Green Industrial Complex
