Looks like Chu will take the fall for this...sacrificial lamb. I'd say Chu was toast after this. Keep digging folks, this is a long way from over, no scapegoating, dig dig dig. We got them on the ropes.

Even if Chu takes the fall on this, all he has to say is “Well, I did win a Nobel Prize ... what about you??” It’s the Politically Correct way to shut off debate, but it still stinks!

What does “take responsibility” mean?
Is Chu going to pay the taxpayers back? Does Chu get beaten, tarred and feathered?
Or does he just have to say “My bad” at a press conference and all is forgiven?

Looks like Chu will take the fall for this...sacrificial lamb. No he won't. I'll bet dollars to donuts he is still drawing a gov't paycheck when Obama leaves in mocking disgrace in Jan 2013.
If I'm wrong...well, that good!

Someone must be making rumblings and putting 2 and 2 together, you don’t get admissions like this from Obama’s crew unless someone is getting darn close to putting 2 and 2 together and getting 4.

Nah, Chu is safe
Token Cabinet Asian and brilliant Nobel prize winner plus a god of the greenies.
He’s a safe guy to take the fall.
Oops, I’m just a brilliant Nobel prize winning scientist who would ride a bike to work if I wasn’t so important, and I didn’t understand the high finance stuff.
My bad!
d.oh.
One week and the issue is gone.

Apparently, “taking responsibility” means hiding from the press and Congress, and instead sending out spokesman Damien LaVera to read a prepared statement.
Look next for a very Clintonian “mistakes were made” brush-off, followed by, um, nothing...

Isn’t Chu one of several members of the Baraqqi regime on record in favor of “European” levels of gasoline prices for the US?
Are any Republicans preparing to use that sound bite in 2012 advertising?
