(9,126 posts)We need to stop measuring things by profit. Especially for government. The job of government, and in this case it seemed to work, is to do whatever it takes to build our energy and infrastructure with the most environmental benefits possible. We need an environmental plan, not band aids on what we have now.

(9,350 posts)How much play is this getting on the mainstream media? When did President Obama learn this information? Could this have been used during the 2014 midterm elections?
But, but, but...BENGHAZI!

(57 posts)as small potatoes. It makes for a poster child because solar panels are icky to RW eyes. For some reason, it reminds them of hippies and, well ewww. They could not tear Carter's solar panels off the Whitehouse fast enough for Ronnie.
The thing is, fossil fuels must now be the icky fuel.

(56,828 posts)you'll already have somebody on Fox News saying that the snow disproves global warming...now, we can have Louis Gohmert saying the solar panels are stealing the sunlight and leading to global cooling and a new Ice Age is inevitable.

(45,432 posts)DUers don't like when someone makes a profit. It must be evil somehow. Some innocent somewhere must have suffered in the process. Won't someone please think of the poor sun's perspective on this? It was less sunny today because these greedy liberals absorbed it all into their solar panels.

(27,137 posts)How about touting this NOW, instead of before the Democrats lost the Senate? (not you Earl)
How about having a system in which no matter how much you do successfully, it matters little politically because ''the people'' upon whom's behalf all this is being done -- are kept uneducated, ignorant, conflicted, race-baited, sick, and POOR.
All intentionally in order to maintain the status quo.

(5,354 posts)talking about how this "scandal" was overblown. The President has been vindicated regarding Solyndra!
