Thank You NYTimes

Their article is an incredibly succinct telling of the silliness of the current administration and the many inexperienced people it employs pulling huge salaries from our tax payments even though they have no experience or judgment as to business matters.
The story is entitled, “In Rush to Assist Solyndra, U.S. Missed Warning Signs” and you can access it at: http://www.nytimes.com/2011/09/23/us/politics/in-rush-to-assist-solyndra-united-states-missed-warning-signs.html?pagewanted=1&_r=1&ref=politics
Please read the story.  We must get these incompetent people out of the federal government and return them to Chicago and Illinois politics where this form of behavior is rewarded with fat paychecks and even fatter pension checks.
535 million US taxpayer dollars gone within months.  Obama praises the company.  His Chicago crony, Valerie Jarrett, meets with company officials; repeatedly.  The dope running the energy department, SChu, urges a speedup in getting the money to the company.
Even today more dopes from the energy department justify and support the effort to waste this money as quickly as possible.  Terminated?  Indicted?  Not a chance.
The federal prosecutors would rather indict some baseball player who may have artificially tried to build strength so that he could hit more home runs and then decided to deny it.  Who would you prosecute?  A baseball player who did not cost the taxpayer one cent or dopes at the energy department who wasted hundreds of millions of taxpayer money in several months?
This company that took the money and wasted it paid hundreds of thousands of dollars to lobbyists to help them get the money.  This has Chicago written all over it.  This is the Chicago way.  This is the destruction of America through crony, criminal politics.
Thank you NYTimes for writing the story and telling it straight.
The government employees who touched this deal must be indicted for taxpayer waste and fraud.  There has to be one prosecutor somewhere in the department of justice who knows how to build a case and hold government employees personally responsible for this inept and corrupt behavior.

Mandatory prison sentences without parole for govt. employees convicted of corruption, and loss of pension.
Death penalty for corrupt politicians at all levels of govt.
Result: clean govt.
