Transparency

So it's comes to pass that the most open and transparent administration is showing dark blotches in its veil of openness. And what is being exposed when this veil is pulled aside. An administration, just as the Bush administration was vilified for Haliburton, that is now seeing its ties to various green businesses and political donors come to light.

At this time there appears to be no evidence of criminal wrongdoing. The republican congress has opened hearing, subpoenas have been issued, and testimony has been heard with some claiming the fifth.

Solyndra has at this time cost the taxpayer 535 million dollars. There are now rumors that other green industries have been provided an additional Billion dollars In support and loan guarantee. It appears that the administration does not think that half a Billion dollars would be a good start in drawing down the debt. There also appears to be no inclination on the part of this administration to even try and approach a stoppage in the bleeding that is occurring in the federal budget.

Time will tell as to what the results and consequences of the drawing back of this administrations vail will reveal. The saddest aspect to this whole scenario is that spending continues, no realistic plans for cutting the budget are being considered and the taxpayer is being forced to foot the bill.

Good luck Mr. Taxpayer, your numbers are dwindling.

MSNBC Republican Debate

If your a political junkie or just someone who wants to know what the candidates positions are then last nights debate provided more than enough fireworks. Romney and Perry got it on and then Newt settled it all and got the best of MSNBC:http://tinyurl.com/3s753wt This clip is well worth the look-see.
On another point, if per chance you listened to the commentary of the MSNBC crew you are missing the boat. Between Rev. Al Sharpton and Chris Mathews you recei ved such a slanted picture that you would have thought nothing of substance was said but oh how wrong you'd be. If anything I thing Rev. Al and Alter boy Chris Mathews must have got into the wine a bit too much if one was to believe their analysis of last nights event.
Do yourself a favor and look at the debate for yourself and decide. I liked Ron Pauls analogy of how a single silver dime can today buy you a gallon of gas. If you think this could be a look into the future-you just might be right. Think about that!
