The FBI has confirmed to ABC News that federal agents are conducting a search this morning at the offices of Solyndra, the now-bankrupt California solar power company that received $535 million in federal loans under a green energy program touted by President Obama.

Oops! Solyndra was supposed to create jobs and be a role model for new energy investment, according to the WH.

  • Yes, your moderation has been outsourced.
Way to piss $535 million of our tax dollars down the drain.

  • I spent a week in that town one night....
It's creating some FBI, USA, and DOJ jobs.... ;/
Some days even my lucky rocketship underpants won't help.


Bring me my Broadsword and a clear understanding.
Get up to the roundhouse on the cliff-top standing.
Take women and children and bed them down.
Bless with a hard heart those that stand with me.
Bless the women and children who firm our hands.
Put our backs to the north wind.
Hold fast by the river.
Sweet memories to drive us on,
for the motherland.

And don't forget all those secondary expenses.  Those FBI raids don't come cheap.  DOJ hours; pensions, ect ect
