Obama pays off supporter Soros with $2B in federal loans to drill in Brazil
.examiner.com/video ^ | August 21 | Gregory Dail

Insert photo caption or credit hereThe Wall Street Journal reported this week the Obama administration will invest $2 billion (or more) in drilling off the shores of Brazil, of all places. The same Dem-wits who will do anything to keep us from drilling off our own shores are now investing $2 billion in a Brazilian oil company?

The question is why? It’s a POLITICAL PAYOFF TO GEORGE SOROS is why. The liberal rabble-rouser has 5.8 million of the company’s U.S.-traded preferred shares. Once again mainstream media has turned a blind eye to newest of Obama scandals. The Lone Conservative says it all,

Even without the Soros connection this should cause outrage on both sides of the aisle. Obama’s letting down his green supporters on the left by investing in off-shore oil drilling, no matter where that drilling takes place. And the right should be outraged because he refuses to invest in drilling here at home – or allow private companies to do so."

Obama is selling out America and this situation alone should be considered treason and at bare minimum, insider trading!

As a conservation independent who voted for President Barack Obama, I am shocked to read that our president has "loaned" more than $2 billion to a Brazilian oil company (Petrobras) to drill off the coast of Brazil. He refuses to drill here to help our economy and our dependence on foreign oil and loans $2 billion to a company with no U.S. employees to do the same thing!

To top this off, it turns out George Soros (who contributed millions to the Obama campaign) has invested more than $811,000 in the company this year and it is his largest holding (22 percent).

This isn't the change I voted for, is it what you thought the change was going to be? Was there maybe a phone call from California to Washington?

Isn't it weird that one of the biggest winners in the "worst financial crisis since the Great Depression" is GEORGE SOROS? Probably just a coincidence.

Yes: This is an old story,its been around a couple of weeks. Havent heard anything about it in the news, but it’s definitely insane.

The lies they tell about ANWR is that it will take ten years to come on line so there is no use drilling there, how long will this take to come on line.? Fact is we will need oil for the next 40 years or more. DRILL.

The feed the American public with Bull feces and we are supposed to believe the manure.

The project is in Brazil, but it’s the American people who are being drilled by Omana and Soros.

Hey man, just thinking, maybe you can take your shock and somehow find a way to hook it up to the electrical grid. I’m thinking that you are about to experience an almost endless number of additional shocks. Talk about a green alternative!

When are they going to take Soros down. He doesn’t need our money to drill in Brazil.

These people need to be in jail.

Have you checked to see if you have a pulse?

I doubt any conservative anybody didn’t know Obama was a Marxist before the election. Didn’t you? If so ...

What rock have you been under?

If this scenario is true, then tomorrow’s talk shows should be all over this. Articles of impeachment should be drawn up for this. T Boone Pickens, the senile hypocrit should be screaming at this, but of course he won’t.

Perhaps if you had done your homework BEFORE you voted, we all wouldn’t be paying for it.
Info was out there, some chose to ignore it. That group includes most of my lib family who are now too stubborn to admit they should have done more than ignore what I was telling them.

What law is being broken?

Our whole system of campaign finance is legal bribery. Nothing new here.
