Solyndra shuts its doors

Talk about distortion, it isn't the role of the govt. to gamble with taxpayer money but it is the role of the govt. to defend this country. If there was waste, fraud, and abuse of taxpayer dollars in the military spending, then prosecute but quite trying to equate the two expenditures.

Look, it was Bush and the Republicans who created the guarantee program in the first place, deal with it.

How much money did we lose on Solyndra because of Bush? Live with it, "your" President made the loan over objections

Deal with the fact that China is having an economic war against us. However, it was initially the Bush administration that chose Solyndra as a candidate for the loan. If you're going to blame Obama, you must also blame Bush.

Nobody denies that. Nobody with any sense denies that the Bush administration deemed them a poor risk and decided against giving them money.

Being a candidate and getting the money are two different things. Bush didn't cost us over 500 million dollars with Solyndra as he found them not to be a good risk. Like with everything else, "your" President doesn't have a clue as to what he is doing.
