BREAKING SCANDAL: Obama Caught Sending Stimulus Money Offshore

[Winged Hussar]

Barack Obama said the Waxman-Markey carbon tax would help create "green energy" jobs in the U.S. He is now using taxpayer dollars to fund jobs in Spain.

Barack Obama sold the Waxman-Markey "American Clean Energy and Security Act" to Congress and the American people by saying that investment in so-called "green energy" would create millions of high-wage American manufacturing jobs. We received an E-mail from the Society of Manufacturing Engineers (nonpartisan professional organization) that exposed Barack Obama as a blatant prevaricator who is shamelessly using our tax dollars to create jobs not in the United States but in foreign countries. We wonder what rank and file union members--not union bosses who, to paraphrase Henry Ford, have never worked in a shop and whose ambition is to never have to work in a shop, but blue collar workers who actually put in eight hours of honest work every day--will do to the Democratic Party when they discover this. We encourage our readers to circulate this article as widely as possible so they will find out. From the September 2 2009 Wall Street Journal, "U.S. Doles Out Grants for Energy Projects,"

But while the wind farms and solar installations are in the U.S., the profits from these projects are flowing mainly to European companies and developers owned by private-equity investors. Iberdrola SA, the Spanish wind-power giant, was awarded $294 million for five projects. Spokesman Keith Grant said the grants are "crucial to pushing ahead" with U.S. wind projects.

Right, Barry, do you want to tell us again how you are going to create millions of "green energy" jobs for American workers? We don't see how giving $294 million to Iberdrola SA will create even one manufacturing job for American workers...

What? Shocking!

[Salvation]

HUH’ We need jobs here! Not in Spain!

You are saying the president lied? flag@whitehouse.gov, here I come...

Barry hasn’t delivered on ANY American jobs.

Because he doesn’t know how to.

A kid who has worked at Dairy Queen for 3 years has more business experience than the community organizer.

[AppyPappy]

Stimulus money required American products and workers.

[Army Air Corps]

Ping.

[fujimoh]

What would surprise me more if Obama was not sending America’s money to some offshore trust for he and the misses.

[IbJensen]

Well, Spain has become a socialist country and Obama has found a kindred spirit in Zaragoza. (sp?)

[freespirited]

General Motors got 105 million in stimulus funds to help construct a plant to make batteries for the Chevy Volt.

The plant is being built in South Korea.

Thanks...You know we have the technology, the manpower , the empty buildings....Some person needs to set up a “Ford assembly” operation and make good alternative energy sources....Then we need to drill and drill and build multiple refineries.....

[TexasFreeper2009]

Since Obama took office several large local banks (compass and guarantee) have been purchased by BBVA a Spanish banking group.

I have been wondering recently if BBVA has been buying these banks with the bailout money that the government wont admit who it gave it to.

[Hillarys Gate Cult]

The jobs in Spain come mainly from money off the Obama plane.

[Freddd]

Van Jones talked about it in his video’s....

[Hacklehead]

Borders are such a 20th century concept. We are beyond that now. We must accept that all people are citizens of the planet. Don’t you want to help your fellow citizens in Spain?

"In order to make wind power economical, it requires a tax subsidy," said Jim Spencer, chief executive of EverPower

OK, so those who receive power from these wind farms effectively pay for it twice. How is that economical?

American voters must make it clear to their Members of Congress that, unless they distance themselves from this individual, there will probably not be a single Democrat left in the House of Representatives (except for the handful who voted against Waxman-Markey) after November 2010.

Yes, that is what has to happen.

[J40000]

Ya don’t say! ‘Caught’??? ...as in, he’ll be investigated and punished if found to be guilty???

I have to go look out the window to see if any pigs are flying by...

[Blood of Tyrants]

Want to bet that Soros is in there somehow?

[mockingbyrd]

Not that anyone will care....or report on this.

[Old Sarge]

No shock here.

I wonder just how much damage this idiot traitor will do before he is kicked out of the White House and thrown in jail where he belongs.

He has already done and said enough to merit being tried for treason far as I am concerned.

The California mandate for low power HDTV sets is sending all the HDTV business to Samsung in Korea too.

[jmaroneps37]

Gotta make Spain’s “green jobs” failure LOOK like it works.

They took it down... apparently too many smart alecks were sending in fishy emails...

[patriot preacher]

First — NO KIDDING! WHO KNEW!?

Second — Not a snowball’s chance in hades that this gets ANY play in the MSM.

Third — anybody else got any bright ideas?

DC 9/12.

Make sure your signs have only a maximum 3/4 inch diameter dowel rod. Its gotta be wood.

A kid who has worked at Dairy Queen for 3 years has more business experience than the community organizer.

Yeah, much more...

[Leftism is Mentally Deranged]

It should be obvious by now that this “stimulus” was never intended to create American jobs, in spite of Pelosi chanting “jobs, jobs, jobs.”

[RushIsMyTeddyBear]

Just zapped this to Drudge. We’ll see if he bites.

[Dr. Bogus Pachysandra]

“anybody else got any bright ideas?”

Call, email, fax your local talk show hosts. Get it “in the air.”

[TheThinker]

The Obama presidency is a failure and nothing but a crooked scheme to enrich Obama’s Leftist friends around the globe while simultaneously weakening the financial strength and sovereignty of the United States.

[b4its2late]

Yeah I noticed that name when I was looking the companies up yesterday.

[KeyLargo]

[jonrick46]

Just as I predicted. The stimulus money will operate as a slush fund for the Democrats hidden in offshore accounts.

“The California mandate for low power HDTV sets is sending all the HDTV business to Samsung in Korea too.”

gotta love government mandates. It’s like they think that saying “it will be invented” is the same thing as actually inventing it. “if I can think it you can do it...”

[RushIsMyTeddyBear]

LOL!

[ImJustAnotherOkie]

Just another marble in overflowing traitor bucket.

[Frantzie]

UAW and other union members getting screwed by Obama along with taxpayers.
