He did an “Independent” Review! Independent Must have a new definition.

Posted on August 23, 2012 by ProudMilitaryMom

How many things can you find wrong in this article?

AP Exclusive: Energy loan watchdog an Obama donor

Right off the top I found that this guy is a Washington insider. Oh and that the Energy Dept lawyers approved his selection as the guy who would conduct the “independent review” – OF the Energy Department loans. (Note the article says he did not assess Solyndra. ????)  Former Wall Street executive. Toxic assets.

But hey- he didn’t give all that money to Obama’s campaign til after he found that it was all good that WE lost scads of money on Obama’s failed energy boondoggles.

Can we all say “Revolving Door” and “Corruption”???

    Great find, PMM.

    From the same article:

    Allison was named by President George W. Bush to head Fannie Mae after the quasi-government home lending agency was placed in conservatorship in 2008 following the Wall Street collapse.

    A year later, Obama named Allison as an assistant treasury secretary to oversee the Troubled Asset Relief Program that Bush had created to stabilize Wall Street banks and investment houses reeling with toxic debt.

    Now, if that doesn’t sound like “Bush III”, I don’t know what does.

    I can’t wait to see the spin about this (presuming it even sees the light of day). Thanks for bringing it to our attention

    Anthony- amazing isn’t it? Same people, giving money to both sides- to keep that revolving door spinning to their advantage.
    Good catch on the “Bush III”

    Just saw Uppity at Walmart. She’s talking to the friendly Walmart greeter – something about how she would rather eat a McDonald’s Double Cheeseburger, laced with grease from Donna Brazile’s mama’s cooking, than blog on her blog about voting for democrat or a republican in this year’s election.

    Uh oh. She’s heading to produce. OMG! She’s juggling Cantaloupes and shouting: “Attention Walmart Shoppers, Get your Salmonella Cantaloupes before the FDA and CDC recalls them in a month or two!”

    What the hell! She just hijacked a guy’s shopping cart scooter! She’s yelling for everyone to follow her to the pharmacy and “sign up for a reduced-price prescription card – only $10,000 a year – courtesy of ObamaCare!”

    Geeze! She’s made a u-turn and is heading into the women’s clothing department! Clothes are flying! I can hear her singing: “The last time I saw Paris China…. the smell of sweat-shops in the air…”

    Shit! Here comes security… she just stood up on the scooter seat. She’s putting on a t-shirt… that says…

    Good one, PMM!

    Don’t worry about this guy. There will surely be many, many more to slither into powerful positions, under the radar of the voting public:

    Presidential Appointment Efficiency and Streamlining Act of 2011

    The Senate approved the bill, 79-20, last June and the House approved it 261-116, last month. Republicans and Democrats.

    It gives the President the ability to appoint almost 170 more executive branch positions and 3,000 Officer Corps positions without the approval of the Senate.

    In summary, the law reduces the number of positions requiring full Senate confirmation by one-third.

    I liked this article:

    The last word: He said he was leaving. She ignored him.
    When Laura Munson’s husband asked for a divorce, she ducked instead of fighting. He needed to learn, she says, that his unhappiness wasn’t really about her

    I’ll let you all know when I land in New York. We ALL know there’s only one Needlenose and I’ve got the picture.

    I’m renting an ultra-lite for the first few days and hopefully can spot that Scarecrow.

    No doubt, from what she says, she can out run me, so once I get the location, I’ll rent a scooter, gas mask, bullet-proof vest, portable wine rack – and definitely have a pack of CIGS on me – to break the ice.

    All suggestions would be helpful as we all know this search and find mission falls into the category of Close Encounters of the UppityWoman Kind. So, pray for me with one of those four foot rosaries, light a candle and call the rapture guy to reserve me a spot on the next flight out.

    Yes, I know it’s last call for me, but someone’s got to do it. I love you all and will miss you terribly.

    Did she say December? Better pack my winter clothes and make me an “OWS?” sign to hang around my neck at the airport terminal.

    Uppity: Don’t blame you one bit for sitting this one out. Have a wonderful and well-deserved break! Nobody does it better and I look forward to reading you upon your return.

    In the meantime… Yes you did – and thank you – for leaving your readers in a variety of good hands!

    More listeria poisoned bagged salad mix. I just do not get it. Is it really that frigging difficult for some people to understand this stuff is filthy?

    LOL on the Waldo- that would work-

  45. imusthavepie, on August 23, 2012 at 10:55 PM said:

    From wiki:

    According to the police report, Buddy was killed by a car while “playfully chasing a contractor” who had left the Clinton home in Chappaqua, New York, on January 2, 2002. The Clintons were not home at the time of the accident; their home was being watched by Secret Service agents. The agents rushed Buddy to an animal hospital where he was pronounced dead.[3][4]
    In 2005, Clinton acquired another chocolate Lab whom he named Seamus.

    imust- that is too funny- or it struck me funny- the Clinton’s having a dog with the same name as romney’s roof rider
