According to the Washington Post, emails from the White House to the Office of Management and Budget show the White House repeatedly asking when they would be able to announce the loan for Solyndra at a scheduled event. The implication being that perhaps the White House attempted to push the loan through in order to capitalize on an announcement of the loan.

In it’s defense, the White House states that the emails show only that they are interested in the loan and wanted more information from the OMB.

It will be interesting to see if the White House manages to distance itself from this particular fiasco.

This is exactly, precisely, specifically why it is not a good idea to rush money through congress like Bush did near the end of his second term and Obama/Reid/Pelosi did through the first two years of Obama’s first term.

How much more scandal will be uncovered? One shudders to think of the waste, fraud and overall system abuse that will be revealed from the trillions of dollars Obama has spent.

Obama is taking the phrase ‘stay the course’ way too seriously. Temporary jobs, jobs that are only funded by the government for a short time are a waste of taxpayer money.

While it is true that there is some modicum of return, in the sense that a new bridge is a new bridge, the fundamental truth of the matter is that funding for the creation of the bridge goes away much too soon to cause significant long term income streams.

Additionally, the net effect of creating temporary jobs while taxing the alleged ‘wealthy’ to pay for the pork barrel projects causes a net loss of jobs: job creators have less money to work with, and as such create fewer long term career-oriented positions.

It is just my opinion, of course, but a job that is ‘created’ via temporary funds paid for by taxes levied on job creators is NOT a real job.

On friday, March 19, 2010, Ellsworth finally shed his sheep’s clothing and exposed himself for the liberal wolf that he is, and announced he will vote for liberal President Obama’s socialistic takeover of healthcare.

In spite of the fact that his constituents are solidly against the bill, in spite of the fact that doctors oppose the bill, in spite of the fact that the United States of America has no money to FUND the bill, Mr. Ellsworth decided it was more important to engender approval from his Democrat leadership and vote against the wishes of his constituents.

One can only hope that he manages to somehow solve the Obama initiated depression before 2011 arrives, because Mr. Ellsworth will undoubtably be looking for a new job.

I wonder if, on sunday, Mr. Ellsworth will be humming, “Take This Job And Shove It” as he casts his vote to spend our country into oblivion.

Althought the speaker seems a little intense in this video, it is understandable, given that he is reviewing documents showing Nancy Pelosi’s abusive use of government funds to provide transport and alcoholic beverages for herself and members of her family.
