Chu leaves with a heavy heart that he was not able to get gas prices up to European levels. That honor will now fall to his replacement.

RE: Energy Secretary Steven Chu resigns

When are we going to CLOSE DOWN this useless Carter established department?

Let’s do that and save $31 billion a year.

These guys are nothing but front men. Hagel spilled the beans yesterday when he said as sec of def he was not going to be in a policy making roll. If the cabinet are not policy makes, who is....obviously the Czars and his excellency. When things to bad, as they are designed to do in most cases, the cabinet member is the insulation. Just like in the mob, no one speaks to the capo but the underboss, so too in this moblike administration.

If he needs his roof painted white I know there’s a couple million people who need (and want) work.

Too bad his genius suggestion that we paint all the roads and roofs in the country white to reduce global warming never got off the ground. Sherwin-Williams is sad to see him go.

Another big government, nanny-state socialist twarted in his desire to show us that he could make collectivism work where Marx, Engles and Stalin failed.

Good riddance!

This Administration has ABOVE THE LAW down to a science. Just about each person that he named to his first Administration could have been tried in court, but it is tough to have the law work when Holder is at the controls. And then they leave and go back into the private sector.

Hey, when they re-enter the private sector, can civil suits be filed?

Steven Chu:

The poster child for why scientific achievement does not necessarily correlate with common sense.

Off to form a PAC or become a lobbyist and make some serious Algore-type mullah.

His goal was $10 per gallon gasoline.

He obviously has to leave because he only destroyed
the American economy “half way”.

His replacement will continue the march of
the Dear Leader to full American poverty.
