Did Chu say anything about AlGore inventing the Internet??
Steve Chu reporting from where? ‘The State Science Institute’?
I swear, the Obama regime seems to have read Atlas Shrugged as some sort of reference guide on how to develop a failed socialist state.
Lies, lies anymore lies. Nothing else seems to come out o9f Washington anymore. And the rougher, tougher uneducated crowd 2ill believe those lies, as the Lefitsts build their army!
We are in a pretty pickle, people!
Chu’s on first?
Sounds like the Nuns in Catholic School where nothing EVER happened in history without at least a Priest being involved or actually doing it.
Certainly not true of Thomas Edison, Samuel F.B. Morse, Henry Ford or any of our other great innovators of that era.
However, if he is speaking of the last half-century he may have a point. Many companies have stopped doing internal R&D all together, instead opting to farm it out to universities. And the universities as we all know need Federal money even more than oxygen.
To me - it is different if a politician or a lawyer were to stretch the truth a bit.
But with the new Left - even Technocrats and Scientists - don’t seem to have any respect - at all - for making statements that just can’t be supported by facts.
This reveals a deaply flawed character. This is a “junior engineer” mentality - where all the guys in the room roll their eyes, and wonder when the real engineer will show up.
It demonstrates - the guy has never really been around serious people. Just a bunch of chuckle head yes men.
Chu’s a socialist, this is not an unexpected remark from him.
