Obama’s Chicago-style politics conceal Solyndragate
Badger Herald ^ | 11-8-11 | Vincent Borkowski

What is bothering is the fact that this story may go a bit deeper. Not only did Obama decide to ignore the Republicans who were entirely correct (that part is not new), but he also decided to ignore the experts in finances inside his own party and those nonpartisan ones hired to investigate Department of Energy spending. Despite criticism on both sides of the aisle, he still wastes more than half a billion dollars.  What would cause him to make such an expensive and ill-advised move? Was it an intoxicated Biden calling him a softie? The answer is that one of Obama’s highest fundraising people, Steve Spinner, is an employee of the U.S. Department of Energy and was one of the monitors of the deal that threw easy cash to Solyndra. It seems that Obama is quite bendable to the will of his fundraisers.  Our president, the one who promised to never play party politics if he was elected, has reneged on his promise (this actually is not the first time) and is wasting our taxpayer money to support his fundraising friends. It is unsure how deeply Spinner and Obama are entangled with Solyndra’s executive board or shareholders, but it seems quite apparent that they at least know each other very well and will “help each other out.”

Two things.

One: They do this stuff knowing they will get away with it in the end.

Two: Abandon hope all ye who enter here. Having watched Chicago perfect this I've learned that without an inquisitive media you will be waiting for justice you will never get. The media will only giggle at the wonder of it all.

Steel yourselves for more of what we’ve witnessed in the past 48 hrs. in the Herman Cain saga. Because the Obama camp has a steady diet of that sort of thing planned for us from now till Election Day.
