Solyndra solar power company shuts down 15 months after Obama visit and Energy Department stimulus!!

Full Story: www.thehalsreport.com Back in May of 2010 President Barack Obama toured a solar start-up company in Freemont, California by the name of Solyndra. He gave an address at the plant in front of the press and state officials which outlined his vision for a alternative energy sector in the US balanced by the federal government. In the speech, Obama said “The promise of clean energy isn’t just an article of faith, it’s not just some abstract possibility for science fiction movies or a distant future or 10 years down the road or 20 years, it’s happening right now. The future is here.” The Silicon Valley company was the first to receive a loan from the Energy Department’s Recovery Act, but they never received the remainder of the loan because the Energy Department postponed plans to expand the factory. So, why is this important? It’s important because only six months ago President Obama gave a speech explaining how Solyndra was the future of clean energy in America and now it’s bankrupt!

  1. Democrats and Republicans like to keep politicians in nice, neat little boxes, so they can take turns operating the military/war/banking machine. Ron Paul is a financial conservative and social liberal who doesn’t fit the box–so they demean him, ignore him. THINK OUTSIDE THE BOX! THE LIVE AND LET LIVE PRESIDENT who can STOP THE WARS and use that money to support the needy! Ron Paul 2012 can win! For LESS government, not MORE!

  2. Classic example of why government should stay out of “creating jobs” and leave it to the private sector. Not only do we see yet another case in point of government WASTE of yours and mine taxpayer money, but it is plain and simply unconstitutional, just like all the other entitlement programs that were put on the backs of the American taxpayer. The government goes outside the boundaries accorded to it by our Constitution and this is the pile of stink that gets created.

    I feel sorry for the workers that lost their jobs. The UNIONs, OBAMA, & the CA democratic legislators that funneled this money to their personal piggy bank do not give a fuck about these workers, leaving high & dry. From Social Security, the Postal Service, & Solyndra, these democrats dip their hand into the cookie jar bankrupting this economy & taking a big bite out of the taxpayer & giving the crumbs to the workers than turn around & blame the TEAPARTY when there is nothing left.

  4. @schwartsbruder Oh and lets not forget that he gave 2 billion to Brazil so they can drill for oil and then sell it to us. I swear to god with Obama as our president who needs Al-Qaida

  5. @2012vote Yea i know hes creating jobs alright but in the wrong countries. Did you hear there going to build a 5000 manned FORD plant in India? I’m surprised people are still noticing this now!

  6. @schwartsbruder Obama is scheduled to present his “jobs plan” in Apex, N.C., today at the headquarters of WestStar Precision. WestStar is a high-end, specialty manufacturer that just opened a new facility in San Jose, Costa Rica creating many new jobs there, but not in the United States. God the guy is killing us.

  7. The morning of Obama’s jobs speech, the FBI raided Solyndra’s offices, over misuse of $535 million in loans Solyndra received from the Department of Energy in 2009 under the Obama economic stimulus program.
    Even $535 million couldn’t stave off Solyndra bankruptcy.
    Obama wants hundreds of billions of dollars of more stimulus, even as Americans learn one of the many ways in which the first batch of $859 billion was squandered.
    We deserve to know how and why Obama wasted our money on Solyndra.

  8. @stalinwasright they fact that you are suggesting MURDERING employees of Solyndra means that you are nothing but a very sad sadistic cult.
    Gl spending life in prison.

  9. @SereneiBE : What are you a former Solyndra employee? These fucks jacked our cash and now are playing it off like they cant pay it back.

    FUCK SOLYNDRA, AND FUCK THOSE FUCKING FUCKERS WHO STOLE OUR MONEY!

  10. @stalinwasright you are so full of hate, its nowonder other countries look down at us.
    hate hate hate hate hate.

    “Every piece of shit who ever worked at Solyndra should be hunted down and butchered like a pig for stealing OUR FUCKING MONEY!”

  11. AWESOME, at least OweBama’s contributor made out….sucks for the taxpayers being out a half a billion…only rich pay taxes though….sucks for the 1,000 workers laid off, but at least its green energy bro, at least OweBama’s guys got paid!
