The majority of key investors in Solyndra were Republicans, btw.

The majority investor was George Kaiser. Show me the list of Republicans please.

BTW if your statement had any truth to it do you think Republicans would be pushing Chu and Co. as they are?

It's nice to see you admit your ignorance of the subject. I've posted that twice for you, here, previously.

Major investors included George Kaiser Foundation, U.S. Venture Partners, CMEA Ventures, Redpoint Ventures, Virgin Green Fund, Madrone Capital Partners, RockPort Capital Partners, Argonaut Private Equity, Masdar and Artis Capital Management.

You'll just have to do a little investigation, to see who owns all those investment companies. In fact, all you have to do is google "Solyndra", and ignore any hits off right-wing blogs.

BTW if your statement had any truth to it do you think Republicans would be pushing Chu and Co. as they are?

Sigh ... the Republicans are desperate to try something, anything, to attack Obama for the election. But of course, that can't possibly be the reason the only people who think there is a "scandal" is Red State, Big Government, and Faux News.

Google said that it believed other institutions were better positioned to take its renewable energy efforts "to the next level."

LOL - "better positioned" than an internet company? Yeah, who would have thought that getting into the energy business was probably a step too far for an internet search engine?

Money doesnt know where its invested. They got out because they realized it was a bad investment, not because they dont have enough experience. At some point you have to believe the figures, not the political spin.
