Gov Palin Called It: Obama Loans $10 billion & Soros Invests $811 Million In Petrobas of Brazil
Governor Palin 4 President ^

Governor Palin commented on Obama Sending Billions Overseas To Appease Environmentalists and she apparently saw that something was fishy. She questioned why the US is investing even $1 overseas for energy when we have the need at home. Well now we know! Obama & cronies have guaranteed $10 billion in loans to Pertrobas but what is more disturbing is socialist Soros invested $811 million in the same company. He must have an inside source?

Bloomberg reported Obama Financier George Soros bought a $811 million stake in Petrobas Brazil SA, making the Brazilian state-controlled oil company his investment fund's largest holding. As of June 30, the stake in Petrobras, as the Rio de Janeiro-based oil producer is known, made up 22% of the $3.68 billion of stocks and American depositary receipts held by Soros Fund Management LLC, according to a filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. Petrobras has since slumped 28%.

The Obama administration is backwards.  They choose to make deals and invest with sleazy international figures, instead of investing money and resources drilling in ANWR, which would create jobs nationwide and benefit the sagging economy.  This would have the added benefit of curbing our dependence on Middle Eastern despots, too.

It shows that Obama is more interested in helping his socialist friend, rather than helping Americans.

Nothing has amazed me more than watching the State Media portray a smart, articulate governor as some in-over-her-head” housewife based on a Saturday Night Live skit and a couple of “gotcha” questions, when Barrack Hussein, sounds like a blithering idiot every time he takes his eyes off the teleprompter and he is still held up as some intellectual giant.

The media went all-in on this guy so far they can't help but crash and burn with him. They'll stick it out to the end 'cause they're stupid and proud and ideological.
