Car Company Gets U.S. Loan, Builds Cars In Finland
http://www.newsmax.com/Newsfront…
http://abcnews.go.com/Blotter/ca…
http://www.foxnews.com/leisure/2…With the approval of the Obama administration, an electric car company that received a $529 million federal government loan guarantee is assembling its first line of cars in Finland, saying it could not find a facility in the United States capable of doing the work.
Vice President Joseph Biden heralded the Energy Department's $529 million loan to the start-up electric car company called Fisker as a bright new path to thousands of American manufacturing jobs. But two years after the loan was announced, the company's manufacturing jobs are still limited to the assembly of the flashy electric Fisker Karma sports car in Finland.
"There was no contract manufacturer in the U.S. that could actually produce our vehicle," the car company's founder and namesake told ABC News. "They don't exist here."
Henrik Fisker said the U.S. money has been spent on engineering and design work that stayed in the U.S., not on the 500 manufacturing jobs that went to a rural Finnish firm, Valmet Automotive.
------------
Uhmmm he fucking Barry and Joe, are you completely dense or just plain stupid.... aren't you supposed to be building jobs here. Priced at $90,000+, I mean what in the fuck is that, how . Seed money that will come back? 500 jobs in Finland!? US taxpayers money down the toilet again! I'm sorry, you can easily find unemployed Americans that could be trained to work on this.- http://www.fiskeraut…********

Do you even read the things you post?
"Henrik Fisker said the U.S. money has been spent on engineering and design work that stayed in the U.S., not on the 500 manufacturing jobs that went to a rural Finnish firm"
And what is the company supposed to do if they can't find a US facility? Fold? The loan is lost completely then. At least they are still in business so they can make revenue to repay the loan.
But yeah, the pricing is fuct
- Of course, it's complete BS, you can do the same thing in the USA, "couldn't find someone, my ass" surely Henrik. plus the cost********
- Why aren't the Auto Unions up in arms!? Because they will not speak poorly of their own, that's why. Biden is a CUNT********

only thing i found was the announcement of the draw down for 8-31-11, which included the promise to pull out completely at the end of this year.
Unless you mean that he's said complete pullout by the end of 2011, in which case, i don't get your point about him saying it a bunch of times- sorry, drawdown for 8-31-10locustsloth

Obama Zombies: How the Liberal Machine Brainwashed My GenerationBy Jason Mattera
In 2008, Barack Obama lobotomized a generation. For an entire year, otherwise clear-thinking members of the most affluent, over-educated, information-drenched generation in American history fell prey to the most expensive, hi-tech, laser-focused marketing assault in presidential campaign history. Twitter messages were machine-gunned to cell phones at mach speed. Facebook and MySpace groups spread across the Internet like digital fire. YouTube videos featuring celebrities ricocheted across the globe and into college students’ in-boxes with devastating regularity. All the while, the mega-money-raising engine whirred like a slot machine stuck on jackpot. The result: an unthinking mass of young voters marched forward to elect the most radical and untested president in U.S. history. Recognized as one of the country’s top young conservative activists by Human Events, Jason Mattera created an internet sensation with ambush video interviews that exposed clueless young liberals and cunning Democratic officials. Now he reveals the jaw-dropping lengths Barack Obama and his allies in Hollywood, Washington, and Academia went to in order to transform a legion of iPod-listening, MTV-watching followers into a winning coalition that threatens to become a long-lasting political realignment. Obama Zombies uncovers the true, behind-the-scenes story of the methods and tactics the Obama campaign unleashed on youth culture. Through personal interviews and meticulous original research, Mattera explains why conservatism’s future rests upon jolting the young masses from their slumber, yanking out their earphones, and sparking a countercultural conservative battle against the rise of the ignorant Left. The lesson from 2008 is crystal clear: When true conservatives run away, Obama zombies come out to play.--------------

Napolitano grants amnesty to many illegal aliens -- without a vote!
http://www.cnsnews.com/news/arti…
Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano told the Senate Judiciary Committee on Wednesday that under the administration’s policy of exercising “prosecutorial discretion” in the enforcement of the immigration laws, her department is currently authorizing some illegal aliens to work in the United States.Sen. Charles Grassley (R-Iowa), the ranking member of the Judiciary Committee, asked Napolitano: “According to the information from your department, some individuals who are given relief will obtain work authorizations. So people with no right to be in the country will be allowed to work here. Is that correct?”

Marco Rubio caught in lie about his family's history
http://www.washingtonpost.com/po…
During his rise to political prominence, Sen. Marco Rubio frequently repeated a compelling version of his family’s history that had special resonance in South Florida. He was the “son of exiles,” he told audiences, Cuban Americans forced off their beloved island after “a thug,” Fidel Castro, took power.
But a review of documents — including naturalization papers and other official records — reveals that the Florida Republican’s account embellishes the facts. The documents show that Rubio’s parents came to the United States and were admitted for permanent residence more than two-and-a-halfyears before Castro’s forces overthrew the Cuban government and took power on New Year’s Day 1959.

Ground Zero mosque honcho provides shady proof of property tax pay with doctored statements
http://www.nydailynews.com/ny_lo…The real estate developer who wants to put a mosque near Ground Zero tried to pull a fast one Tuesday about his property tax woes.
When the Daily News contacted developer Sharif el-Gamal about the $30,000 he owed the city in back property taxes for the future Islamic center in lower Manhattan, he insisted he had already taken care of it.
"The check was sent in," Gamal insisted to The News during an interview about 3:30 p.m. "The taxes have been paid."
Gamal was supposed to be making quarterly payments for a $224,000 tax bill his company had run up last year on the Park Place building.
But he missed a scheduled $30,000 payment that was due on Oct. 3.
When the Daily News asked for proof of payment, Gamal forwarded an email receipt from the city Finance Department's online payment system showing a $30,435.11 payment made on Oct. 5 at 1:54 p.m.
The email receipt Gamal forwarded had a receipt number of WWW23334165.
There was a problem, however.
The Finance Department says that payment was actually made yesterday at 3:55 p.m. - roughly half an hour after Gamal claimed he'd already paid.
The Finance Department sent over what they say is the real receipt, which had the same code number of WWW23334165.

The heat is on - A new analysis of the temperature record leaves little room for the doubters. The world is warming
You've all heard it before: the climate records have been manipulated, altered, adjusted, forced to fit preconceived theories, it's the urban heat island, it's termometers next to air conditioners, it's data selection bias, the emails confirm the fix is in. The usual climate denier claptrap.
A year or so ago, a couple of scientists on the skeptical side of things, Judith Curry and Richard Muller, decided to take another look a the entire surface temperature record using all the data and the best possible statistical practices, to see whether mainstream climate science had really gotten it right.
Today they announced their findings. Oooops. Climate scientists were right all along.
