Question:
What if it were President George Bush and Solyndra?
(Quite a double-standard among all those visceral, psychotic mutts in the Progressive press.)
IMHO
Then Obama goes on to own the list of fatalities, more than under Bush, and the press is quiet. No more clamoring to take flag-draped casket pictures of the returning fallen soldiers. No more numbering the days of the Iraq war at the beginning of each nightly network broadcast.
Amazing how sanitized the coverage became once Obama came to office.
