So the White House didn’t push the Solyndra loan and it just happened on its own? Aren’t they the ones in charge of the stimulus spending? So who did push for it? Santa Claus?

The White House is full of manure. Call out the special prosecutor before the records are expunged!

Does the Obama administration watch the news or even read? The DOE already released the e-mails describing the pressure they were under to approve the loan so it could go public!

Why would 0bama ever tell the truth about anything? He knows that he always gets away with lying and the media will back him up.

Next year at the SOU, the Republicans should all chant “L I A R!” every time he tells one. The Left and BHO need to be ridiculed into submission.

The original application for the Solyndra loan was during Bush. But....the Bush administration denied the application. Your move, Obama.
