I just watched Huckabee on Fox saying that he doesn’t see corruption just a bad business decision.

I suppose he could be right it could have been just a bad business decision.

HOW MNAY BAD BUSINESS DECISIONS DOES THIS MAKE>

Taking over GM, bailing out the banks,shovel ready projects that don’t exist, buying bus’s from Canada, Trillions in debt and pissing away money like it was water.

We have to say if we look at this from it’s brighter side it was a move made by an idiot.If we look at it from the corruption side , it got Obama some Campaign money. Campaign money he doesn’t need since so far the American peopl have been supplying Campaign funds in the form of free rides on Air Force One and a couple of bus’s we didn’t need.

Now I see an ad pushing his latest stimulus,Who is paying foe that?

....pissing away money like water

When it's time to cut spending, everyone multiplies the annual amount by a factor of ten; when it's time to waste money, it's mentioned annually.

So, a $30 billion green investment to stimulate the economy in a year would be counted as $300 billion over ten years if it was a cut, but the ten years wouldn't be mentioned.

When you realize what a struggle it is to cut anything, it makes the year to year profligacy of Obama and Pelosi all the more evident.

Solydra is a distraction at best. Typical Chicago pay-to-play tactics revealed to keep the public eye focused away from the main action: Fast and Furious.

Treason, accessory to a growing list of murders, gun running to cartels, fascilitating drug running and distribution and sales by cartels, import/export violations, violations of international law, tampering with evidence, stonewalling Congressional investigators, intimidation and slander of Congressional investigators, almost total press blackout (including Drudge) . . . etcetera, etcetera, etcetera. All the way to the top. No special investigator appointed. No Congressional outcry from Right or Left. No charges or arrests. No firings. Nothing. Zero. Zip. Nada.

When the politicians pick the winners and losers, just look in the mirror to find the real loser.

Wrong, this is corruption and play for pay.

Bail out Chrysler and stiff the bond holders so the UAW keeps their jobs. UAW = major donor to Obama.

Bail out GM and stiff the bond holders so the UAW keeps their jobs. UAW = major donor to Obama.

Give 1/2 billion loan to Solyndra. A major stockholder in Solyndra is a billionaire campaign bundler for Obama, George Kaiser. Solyndra goes belly up but Obama gets massive donations.

Note the loan was set up so investors are first in line for repayment in case of chapter 11. That means his billionair investor will recoup some or all of his investment and the American Tax Payer eats the loss.

This is not bad business models, this is the "Chicago Way" of corruption and legalized theft.
