    Re: The $825B & $447B Economic Stimulus Packages

    Like “A Hooker Dropped Into A Prison Exercise Yard”....

    Obama Official Doling Out Stimulus Green Energy Billions was like “A Hooker Dropped Into A Prison Exercise Yard”

    Buzzfeed found this amazing video of venture capitalist Paul Holland describing what it was like for Obama Department of Energy adviser Matt Rogers, who was charged with doling out $134 Billion in Green Energy Stimulus Money:



    This was at the Earth2Tech’s Green: Net 09 conference venture capital panel, a day after Foundation Capital’s Paul Holland had visited the White House. He was responding to the question, “what is the latest from DC, what were you doing there, and how can we all make some money off of that.” Holland’s description of Matt Rogers as “about to get treated like a hooker dropped into a prison exercise yard” doesn’t exactly sound like a careful, responsible “redistribution” of taxpayer money does it? But hey, it’s not like these Green Energy boondoggles are going into bankruptcy or anything, right? uhm. right?

    Emails have been released showing a crony, oops I mean, cozy, relationship between Obama fundraising recipients of energy funds, and Obama officials:

    In one email, Steve Westly, an Obama fundraiser whose company received close to a half billion dollars in green energy funds in 2009, cites his ties to senior Obama advisor Valerie Jarrett, campaign manager Jim Messina, and secretary of energy Steven Chu.

    “Please forgive the delay on this, but the Administration has asked me to co-host events for Valeria[sic] Jarrett (last Thursday) and Jim Messina and Steven Chu (both of which are tomorrow) so things have been a bit busy on this end,” he wrote to an Obama energy official in an email on March 8, 2010.
    Unfortunately, the lapdog media is too busy whining about Romney’s tax filings to care about billions of your money being redistributed to Obama donors…

    Recoverywhat??

    Axeldouche: We Never Used The Phrase “Recovery Summer” In 2010…


    The Douchemaster has no soul, how else could he lie with such ease?



    From June 17, 2010:

    Vice President Joe Biden today will kick off the Obama administration’s “Recovery Summer,” a six-week-long push designed to highlight the jobs accompanying a surge in stimulus-funded projects to improve highways, parks, drinking water and other public works.

    David Axelrod, a senior adviser to the president, said: “This summer will be the most active Recovery Act season yet, with thousands of highly-visible road, bridge, water and other infrastructure projects breaking ground across the country, giving the American people a first-hand look at the Recovery Act in their own backyards and making it crystal clear what the cost would have been of doing nothing.”
    Another installment of "let's talk about everything but our abysmal record"..

    He either learned from Obambi or he taught Obambi or Rahm Emanuel trained both of them.

    Another $150 Billion down the drain.

    President Obama touted it in 2010 as evidence "manufacturing jobs are coming back to the United States,” but two years later, a Michigan hybrid battery plant built with $150 million in taxpayer funds is putting workers on furlough before a single battery has been produced.

    The timing? Yessir the great Porkulus Initiative was a complete and total Train Wreck so now the strategy just before the election is to sweep it under the carpet - just plain act like it never happened. The dumbasses out there won't know or care any different anyway. Sad part of it, for many of his constituents, that's true.

    We ain't had a budget since he took office either. Why bother accounting for the cool trillion borrowed taxpayer dollars he slipped into his pals coffers when we're not running the books on a national scale?
