Ask Harry Reid About Chinese Solar Panels.

I’m going to take the day off from bashing Obimbo. Yeah, it’s a hard thing to do, but I’m going to let Todd Cefaratti of The Tea Party.Net bash the second best person that I take great pleasure in despising... Harry Reid. Actually, it’s a close tie between Reid and Pelosi, but Reid’s got it today.

OK, the uniforms the US Olympic Team will be wearing in the London Games were made in China. They were not paid for with tax dollars but instead by Ralph Lauren who designed them and had them produced in one of his factories. It would have been nice to have them made here but thanks to overreaching unions, America really does not have much of a garment industry left. 

In an obvious pandering play to the union powers, Harry Reid was “outraged” by such a travesty. “The USOC should be embarrassed, they should be humiliated. ... Our athletes should not wear clothes manufactured in China.” He went on to say, “they should be placed in a pile and burned”. 

Forget for a moment how you feel about the uniform issue itself and consider Reid’s record on foreign manufacturing.  

Fact 1. The government gave now bankrupt solar panel manufacturer, Solyndra, nearly half a billion dollars for nothing. 

Fact 2. When Harry Reid pushed through funding and sweetheart land deals for a huge solar power generating facility near his home town in Nevada, the solar panels were purchased from his good friend, and Chinese manufacturing billionaire, Wang Yusuo. You guessed it, the panels installed in Nevada were made in China! 

I am sure it is a mere coincidence that Harry Reid’s son, Rory Reid, is employed as a lobbyist for the solar venture!

No need to thank me, folks. My duty and I saw it. I KNEW the lamestream media wouldn’t touch a story like this.

Merry Christmas China, Iran and Russia!

With All My Love -- Obama.

The Iranians have an American drone they say they shot down. 

If it was shot down, how come the hell it’s not spread all over the desert? How did it just MAGICALLY land in the desert in one piece and how was it that we just “lost control of it?” 

With early knowledge that the aircraft had likely remained intact, the senior U.S. official also told Fox News that President Obama was presented with three separate options for retrieving or destroying the drone. The president ultimately decided not to proceed with any of the plans because it could have been seen as an act of war, the official told Fox News.

One official told Fox News on Thursday that the incident is a huge loss and makes the top-secret helicopter tail lost during the Usama bin Laden raid in Pakistan “look like a pittance.” The official said there are real fears the Iranians will share this technology with the Russians and the Chinese, in addition to using it themselves. 

“... there are real fears the Iranians will share this technology with the Russians and the Chinese ...” Riiiight. The Iranians GET their technology FROM the Russians and Chinese! 

Then, Obimbo opts out of EVERYTHING because he’s afraid that the strike would be seen as an “act of war?” 

Yeah, well, I think Obimbo “gave” the drone to them -- that way he could act like he has this great love for his country but the whole time he’s openly and actually undermining it. 

My guess would be that they jammed its radio controls and stole it in THEIR OWN ACT OF WAR.

What’s your guess?

Obama Plays Pipeline Politics.

Kills 20,000 High Paying Jobs. 

From Life and Liberty PAC  

Afraid of angering environmentalists during a hotly debated election cycle, the Obama Administration has stalled a decision on construction of the Keystone Oil XL Pipeline -- and in the process killed the creation of over 20,000 high paying U.S. jobs. 

The Keystone XL Oil Pipeline is designed to increase the supply and availability of Canadian oil in America. Construction of the expanded pipeline alone will create an estimated 20,000 high paying jobs desperately needed in this economic crisis. The project also reduces our reliance on foreign oil supplied by terror states.

Just by virtue of having grown up and having worked in the oil patch, I think Rep. Fred Upton (R) from Michigan has a FAR CLOSER estimate of the jobs created and the barrels of oil we’re losing EVERYDAY. Upton, who is chairman of the House Energy and Commerce Committee, says that the pipeline project could create 100,000 jobs. Upton also said, “Why is it that we’re not working with Canada, which will be producing more than 3 or 4 million barrels a day from oil sand ... ?”

But under pressure from leftwing constituency and radical environmental groups, Obama reversed his own Administration’s approval of the project, and has stalled it until after the 2012 general election. 

Claiming more research needs to be done to identify environmental impact, the Obama State Department has been interposed to delay the decision until 2013. 

The timing of the planned decision is of course the worst possible example of an Administration that cares more for the vainglory of re-election than for the needs of the American citizens it purports to represent.

By delaying the decision, Obama is attempting to escape a potential no win political situation. If the Administration approves the pipeline, they will lose the support of their extremist Left environmental base. If the Administration denies the project, they run the risk of alienating workers and middle class voters who care less about ideology and more about the current state of joblessness in America. 

So, the Obama Administration has chosen to posture as unable to do anything until after the election, when it will no longer matter who they offend.

Canada is losing money everyday that the pipline isn’t built. AND, it’s gonna get built... right to CANADA’S western coast and then go straight to CHINA!

Thanks a lot -- AGAIN -- Chief Idiot of the United States of Amerika!
