Tony Katz, host of The Tony Katz Radio Spectacular, was recently the Featured Story on Andrew Breitbart’s Big Journalism.com with his story about how the Leftist press and pundits are trying to white wash the Solyndra scandal.  Here is an excerpt.  For the full story, click here:

In a piece on Politico, liberal standard bearer Sally Kohn posted her response to the growing Solyndra scandal, in which the Obama White House aggressively pushed through $535 million in loans to a company that was not financially sound, nor capable of providing the product or returning the loan.

Typical of a smear (where is our AttackWatch?) Kohn states:

The Bush administration initiated loans to Solyndra – and tried to push them through before Obama was inaugurated. Since the loan went through, knowledgeable private investors – high-powered Democrats and Republicans – have invested in Solyndra as well. But Solyndra couldn’t compete with Chinese counterparts because the Chinese government subsidizes its green jobs industry 30 times more than we do in the United States, helping jumpstart the new industry.

You see the problem?  As Kohn wants it positioned, the issue is not that the Obama Administration pushed through bad loans, it’s that the Chinese are way better than the United States.  That, while preventing its citizens from using the Internet and jailing those who publicly disagree with the Communist government, the Chinese care more about the environment because the government takes the people’s money and gives it to government run/coordinated/controlled “green” industries.

Anyone want to guess how much CO2 and other pollutants China puts into the atmosphere?  It’s a lot.

This desire to subsidize the green industry is not solely the purview of Kohn…..
