Judge denies government bid for Solyndra trustee
FBI sought contract information
http://www.washingtontimes.com/n…WILMINGTON, Del. — Customer contracts figure prominently in the FBI’s criminal investigation of solar panel maker Solyndra LLC, which went bankrupt despite receipt of more than a half-billion dollars in federal loans, according to testimony on Monday.
A top company official testified in U.S. Bankruptcy Court in Delaware that the FBI’s search warrant affidavit specifically sought information about company contracts.
The official, Ben Schwartz, a vice president and lawyer at Solyndra, was testifying because the U.S. Office of the Trustee said he had refused to answer questions about contracts. His refusal, government lawyers argued, proved that a trustee should be appointed to take over the company.
But U.S. Bankruptcy Court Judge Mary F. Walrath refused, saying there was no indication of any fraud or mismanagement at the company.

Southwest flight makes emergency landing
http://amarillo.com/news/local-n…Somewhere in the heavens above Amarillo, angry shouts rang out from the back of Southwest Airlines Flight 3683.
“You’re all going to die,” a man dressed in black screamed at passengers Tuesday afternoon. “You’re all going to hell. Allahu Akbar,” translated as God is great in Arabic.

Voters say Washington is worse than Wall Street
http://thehill.com/polls/187837-…In the minds of likely voters, Washington, not Wall Street, is primarily to blame for the financial crisis and the subsequent recession.
That is the key finding of this week’s The Hill poll, which comes as the national Occupy Wall Street movement — a protest that objects to risky practices and excessive salaries at major banks, along with American income disparities in general — enters its second month.
The movement appears to have struck a chord with progressive voters, but it does not seem to represent the feelings of the wider public.
The Hill poll found that only one in three likely voters blames Wall Street for the country’s financial troubles, whereas more than half — 56 percent — blame Washington.

You know popfodders, you claim consistently to be against corruption in general, but you consistently are a little lapdog for rigthwing talking points, giving zero credit or acknowledgement of viewpoints that have valid criticisms from the oppositional left.
Anytime anyone tries to starta broader conversation about the actual problems - well lookie there - you come by and flood a few pages with meaningless paid for mass media fluff, or Vikingkingboy shows up and lets loose with a few pages of copy and paste fox news illuminati-lite bullshit.
So, you're frankly wearing sheep's clothing and the tags show through.
Any attempt by the left to say that the free market is all bad and the government is all good is naive and counter-productive.
And any attempt by the right to say that we should leave the giant banks alone because that’s the free market are wrong.
The corrupt, captured government "regulators and the giant banks are part of a single malignant, symbiotic relationship. The whole thing has to go.
Ands that's the truth.
You say "Yeah, that's right" and then go on to continue with your distracting meaningless right leaning drivel.

For all their talk of "democracy" and "freedom" true conservatives were never about either. They were about consolidating power and disenfranchising the masses, who they hate in the same way Agent Smith hated the "very stink of humanity" in the Matrix films. If you paid attention it's not like they hid their disdain or what they were doing.

Protest mob is enjoying rich diet
http://www.nypost.com/p/news/loc…“We’re running a five-star restaurant down there,’’ crowed Eric Smith, 38, the ex-le Chef de Tournant at the Sheraton in Midtown, who works out of a soup kitchen in East New York, Brooklyn, churning out the meals for more than 1,000 protesters every day.
“The other day, we made some wonderful salmon cakes with dill sauce and some quinoa salad and a wonderful tomato salad with fennel and red onion,’’ he said.
“We use organic, grass-fed meats, and the other day, we made a wonderful fried rice and root vegetables and all kinds of soup.”
So last night, for example, while your family of four may have been forced to resort to Hamburger Helper, thanks to Smith’s culinary magic, hordes of Occupy Wall Street protesters instead feasted on organic chicken, spaghetti Bolognese, roasted beet and sheep’s milk-cheese salad and wild heirloom potatoes.Most of the produce, grass-fed meat and organic chicken is donated from small organic farms upstate, including Northland Sheep Dairy, West Haven Farm and Wide Awake Bakery in Ithaca, and several farms in Connecticut and Vermont.
When food is ready for the protesters, a driver collects crates from each of the cooperative farms and drives to New York City with a truckload of goodies.
- It's donated by other people for the benefit of everyone. That's real socialism. This post does not support your viewpoint. Twat.mikotondria3

Obama admin caught covering up 'green' loans evidence
http://www.nationalreview.com/co…It appears as though the Obama administration has been caught red-handed trying to cover up evidence in relation to the “green” loans programs that helped finance Solyndra. CNBC reports that a number of press releases posted by the Department of Energy have been retroactively altered to remove the name a solar company thought by many to be the next “green” failure:
The changes occurred in two press releases from the Department of Energy’s loan guarantee program — the same program that has been the center of controversy surrounding the failed solar company Solyndra.
Both were changed to remove the name of a company that has received negative press attention in recent days, SunPower, and replace it with the name of another company, NRG Energy.
In the April case, the Department of Energy loan programs office announced in a press release on April 12 “conditional commitment” to a $1.187 billion loan guarantee to support the California Valley Solar Ranch project, which it said was “sponsored by SunPower Corporation.”
But that release was later changed on one website to say the project was “sponsored by NRG Energy.” The date on the release remained “April 12, 2011.”
The name substitution is not completely random. NRG recently finalized its acquisition of the California Valley Solar Ranch project from SunPower in September. However, at the time of the press release in April, SunPower still controlled the project.
