Obamas Solyndra scandel wheres the mainstream media reporting this?

[Pandora]

no the guy in charge of the atf..you know the one who actually did the fast and the furious thing..stepped down.

Holder lied about knowing about it, should he step down too?

Holder is ultimately responsible.

You want to stand there and tell us that the head of the atf decided on a gun running operation in to Mexico all by his little ol' self, and did it without the knowledge of the attorney general and the white house?

REALLY?

 

[Openmind]

About time someone posted a thread about this
now I wonder how long it will take before someone posts on fast and furious

Come on, Pandora! It just came out in the news last night and, contrary to Bododie's insinuations, it was broadly covered by CNN AND MSNBC, both last night and this morning!

Last night?


google the story and look at the dates they were posted

Hell I asked about it in this forum last week and I waited a while before asking why no one is talking about it

Below is a story from September 2d where the two senators are talking about expanding the investigation.

http://www.chicagonow.com/publius-forum/2011/09/fast-and-furious-investigation-expands/


the oldest story on the fast and furious I could find was on June 29th and a correction made, the clip was CBS news interviewing obama. Though I could not get the clip to play at least they asked him about it.

Apparently the left leaning news stopped talking about it after that till last night from what I am reading here.

Well, I guess you will have to forgive me for not hearing about it until last night. I was otherwise occupied for the last couple of weeks. . .with a surgery, and a stay in the hospital.

And. . .obviously it is ONLY when the name "OBAMA" is brought forward that the sadistic Republicans get all excited and start smelling blood!

You are such a disappointment to me, Pandora, because, unlike Bododie and Little Acorn, I actually had respect and even liking for you.

But... obviously, I do not know you.

Sorry to disappoint you again. All I did was ask a question to this thread and post actual links about an actual controversial topic

There is nothing wrong with you not knowing about the topic, it actually proves my point that left leaning media wont report some things. You seem to be the kind of person who watches the news on a regular basis, for you to not know about it is only because they are not reporting about it, or hadn't been anyway.

There is a lot to deal with in that little post...I hope the surgery was successful.

1. F&F has been in SOME of the media for at least a couple months. How could you have missed it???? Of course, your media has done a good job of silencing it. Proof libs are not informed on stories that make their leaders look bad...but they still refuse to recognize the liberal bias in their media....can a lib go through life without EVER hearing opposing political views? I think they can.
2. Sadistic Rs....really? If the tables were turned, do you think the Ds would be quite? They would scream Watergate II as they have done several times since Watergate. Proof again of your willingness to be deceived.
3. You are disappointed with Pandy because she discusses a story that is another example of the corruption present in this very corrupt administration. I guess Pandy should be like you and ignore D corruption, while demanding impeachment on any and all R corruption.

Lol. Don't expect certain minds to deal with facts. Reality is what they decide it is. So impossible to....respect? Lol.

 

[pocketfullofshells]

First so far this story has yet to have any damning thing against the president...Enron this is not....sorry. Does it mean its not bad, and that things need to be looked into..no, they should be. But a company failed..and yes it got some stim money to help with getting off oil...of course if it was a oil company that got money and it was under Bush you would not have cared...because thats just expected anyway.

I know you guys want it to be the end of the world but , its just frankly not that big of a deal overall...If one saw a patern of companies doing this that some in the admin someplace where warned about then yes..there is more to see. But again this is not Kenny boy completely cooking the books while getting 382 million in refund and then when it falls watching Bush pretend he hardly even knew him. and even then, that story was more about a corporate culture then Bush personal...as more and more companies went under.

By the way, if the Liberal Media ignored it, why did the daily show do a 8 min attack on it? ( sure it got a Fox news Viagra joke in there, but the attack was on the white house and the company)
go watch it if you like, its pretty funny.

Lol. Is that what you know, child person? Lol.
You won. I knew you would be the one to pull something from the past to make an excuse about the now.

I am sorry I know you hate perspective and having to look back at anything that ever happened when Obama was not in charge so you can live in a bubble. And notice I even pointed out that was not so much a issue of Bush but of corporate culture..so even then I was not attacking Bush for it..

 

[steveox]

What if this was a Republican scandal? Oh yeah the mainstream liberal media would be all over on it. Just like CBS,ABC,NBC MSNBC And CNN were all over on the Bush Halliburton scandal. But when it comes to a Democrat president they look the other way.

you mean the Halliburton one where they had hundreds of billion dollar contracts that they where not forced to bid on, the the VP was the former head of, and that is still ongoing today..one that involved a war zone and a war that turned out to based on lies, errors, and costing trillions?

yea, cuz thats that same

I'm not attacking Obama much either. Just Holder.

Will it still be Bush's mess in two presidencies, or will the next one be Obama's?

No. Probably talking about KBR the former subsidiary of Halliburton that Obama gave a NO BID contract to....last year, despite knowing this, as well as charges of human trafficking.

More than 20 federal lawsuits naming KBR and seeking class-action status were filed in late 2008 and 2009

over the practice of operating "burn pits" at U.S. bases in both Iraq and Afghanistan and thus exposing soldiers to smoke containing dioxin, asbestos and other harmful substances. The pits are said to include "every type of waste imaginable," with items such as "tires, lithium batteries, Styrofoam, paper, wood, rubber, petroleum-oil-lubricating products, metals, hydraulic fluids, munitions boxes, medical waste, biohazard materials (including human corpses), medical supplies (including those used during smallpox inoculations), paints, solvents, asbestos insulation, items containing pesticides, polyvinyl chloride pipes, animal carcasses, dangerous chemicals, and hundreds of thousands of plastic water bottles."

A company statement responding to the allegations said that "at the sites where KBR provides burn pit services, the company does so... in accordance with the relevant provisions" of its contracts as well as "operational guidelines approved by the Army."
