government grants loans to businesses all the time. and it so happens that the loan program that Solyndra lost $500 million on ended up making a profit. so, yeah.... goddammit i'm so PISSED OFF that the government ended up making money on that deal!
Oh cool, other companies worked their asses off and made money, while Obama's pet project failed. That's nice; I guess the free market actually works. So, your point is that Liberals should stop bitching about capitalism, right?
um, there was plenty of outrage from both the left AND conservative circles, where were you? the fact none of those people ever went to jail is still one of the biggest black eyes of Obama's early years. what are you doing to bring those people to prison?
As Roland pointed out (and you didn't), my information here was wrong. Regardless, I was there, and I remember the outrage. But, see, my outrage kept me from voting for one of the people who supported this laughably stupid plan. As for what I'm doing, I'm still voting against the corrupt liars who claim to help the lower and middle classes, while all their actions only help the upper.
"On Tuesday, McCarthy bragged to Fox News’ Sean Hannity that “everybody thought Hillary Clinton was unbeatable, right? But we put together a Benghazi Special Committee, a select committee. What are her numbers today? Her numbers are dropping.”

So, somebody completely uninvolved with the Committee said something stupid? Who cares? Stupid people say stupid shit all the time.

I highly recommend you watch this 10 minute clip(though I know you won't), but the point to really watch is from 07:20 on. Trey Gowdy says that he was not asked to investigate Clinton, and they only pursued anything related to her, to the extent that was necessary.
This directly refutes your opinion, and what "McCarthy" (who I assume is a senator, but again, not involved in the Committee) said.
before Gowdy got his gavel, there were already SEVEN committees which determined that (a) Hillary did nothing criminal, (b) there was no way anyone could have gotten there in time to save those people, (c) there were no intelligence failures at any level of government and (d) it was the CIA who changed the press release after the initial attack, not Hillary's staff.
let me spell it out again for you: SEVEN House committees cleared Hillary of any wrong-doing, including the House Intelligence Committee. http://www.cnn.com/2014/11/21/politics/benghazi-attack-report/
This is also directly discussed in the video I linked above. In it, Gowdy says that previous committees had not questioned intelligence operatives, military personnel, or even on-the-ground eyewitnesses. If those glaring flaws in previous reports don't cause even you to ask questions, well, you're more fucked-up than I imagined.
for the 3,210,203,490,532,217th time: i am neither a democrat nor voting for Hillary Clinton. i am, however, a big fan of reality-based policies which makes me the polar opposite of the GOP.
Reality-based policies like... amnesty for illegal immigrants? Allowing immigration from ISIS territories after they brag that their agents are among the refugees? Health-care plans that force costs on low-income people who cannot afford it? Abortion of viable, 3rd trimester children? Deficit-spending while already $20 trillion in debt?
Seriously, if you're a fan of reality-based policies and those are your beliefs, you must exist in some weird, alternate universe, and this message board must be the first connection this reality has to yours. Quick, alert the scientists! This should truly open up our understanding of the Universe!
