Because, to say he is sorry would be a lie!

That $535 Million had to go some place. Someone had to write the checks and there has to be a check book some place stating who the checks were written to. Where did the money go? This situation will remain open until we learn where the money went, who was all the equipment bought from? Who are the main players in the companies that sold the equipment. Dig until we get to the bottom of it all......or the top of it all even if it goes to the WH.

I don’t want him to say “I am sorry”. That would be a lie. None of the Commiecrats have any remorse for destroying America and ripping off good people.

I would prefer to see people rise up and make them sorry by prosecuting them.

When he was appointed Energy Sec, I had a very sour feeling.

Here he was, a “brilliant” scientist, but I knew he’d hitched his wagon to the wrong horse, I just didn’t know the future........

If Chu had any decency he would resign. He could always get a job painting roofs white.

He's not sorry and the money wasn't lost.

It went directly to the crooks it was supposed to go.

Why Can't Energy Secretary Chu Even Say, 'Sorry' for Solyndra?

Because the commercial failure of solar and wind ventures isn't a surprise, it's a given. The point of this exercise was to shovel taxpayer dollars to Democratic Party donors involved in "green-energy" scams, and that was accomplished successfully - by those standards, Chu probably deserves a bonus.

Left means never having to say you’re sorry.

Chu is very much wrapped up in his ethnic Chineesiness. To apologize for actions however stupid and dishonest would be to lose face. He has this big overachieving family, and he will not dishonor them by admitting he's a piece of shit.

Because he doesn’t have to.

As part of the Obamameister’s racially representative circle of advisors, he knows that he’s above removal. After all, if they couldn;t get rid of an idiot like Geithner or an idiot like Holder, how the heck can they get rid of an idiot like him?

As long the GOP has party leaders like the moronic Boehner and McConnell, people like him are safe - and he knows it - and so does his puppeteer in the Oval Office.

Saying ‘sorry’ would require a degree of humility that liberals simply do not possess.

Every defense lawyer worth his salt would advise Mr. Chu against making any statement that might possibly be construed as an admission of guilt or anything resembling and admission of guilt.

The clever witness who might incriminate himself, but does not want to invoke his 5th Amendment right since that might in some cases arouse more suspicion of there being a good case against him - and who is also trying to prevent blame from going up to his boss, i.e., fall on his sword - is walking a fine line. He is trying to avoid providing any information that implicates anyone else or himself, but still answer questions satisfactorily enough to have the hearing run out of steam. He is trying to avoid prosecution of himself, if possible, while answering things so that the investigation just ends.

The first chances Hussein’s regime had to apologize were when he made the “acted stupidly” remark and his “Special Olympics” gaffe on NBC.

BOTH TIMES Hussein refused to step up to a mic and do a mea culpa. Instead, we got lectured about “teachable moments”. And the Leno show screwup, I believe, merely got a next-day press release praising Special Olympics....but no real apology.

Hussein and his team are arrogant...

Because that would be to admit that he’s ashamed. If you really want to get a Democrat mad, say “You should be ashamed of yourself!” They go bonkers.

He gave the money to the people he was told to give it to. He told Congress exactly what he was told to tell them. Nobody told him to say he was sorry.

Bill Clinton taught them all a huge lesson: Deny, Deny, Deny. Destroy the opposition. Then claim “it’s old news, let’s move on”.

This is how he has been successful in avoiding prosecution for the felonies, abuse of power, and treason he and his PIAPS wife have committed over the years.

Oh, and being an ‘exceptionally good liar’ didn’t hurt either.

Solyndra is not the only one by a long shot. Focusing on it makes this scandal less than it should be.
