House GOP’s Energy Dept. loan probe could ensnare two Cabinet secretaries
Made popular 368 days ago in Opinion
cowboybyte.com — House Oversight and Government Reform Committee Chairman Darrell Issa (R-Calif.) wants to hear from two Cabinet officials — Commerce Secretary John Bryson and Energy Secretary Steven Chu — as part of an investigation into the Energy Department’s loan program.

Republicans alleged at a hearing Wednesday that Bryson, while chairman of BrightSource Energy, planned to lobby the White House for speedy finalization of a $1.6 billion loan guarantee for the Ivanpah solar generation project in California.

Issa told The Hill on Wednesday that he plans to invite Bryson and Chu to an upcoming hearing on the BrightSource loan.

“As a matter of fact, we’re going to ask Secretary Bryson to come to the committee for his direct lobby effort of the White House,” he said.

Love your picture!
As I have said before the media won't care nor will other Democrats because Dem politicians are expected to have sewer rat morals. It is expected and considered no story an not worthy of attention, at least that the way they are portrayed by the mainstream media.
The Reps have a duty to the american public to investigate because the mainstream media sure won't. The mainstream media are too busy investigating the people they perceive and portray as very moral, the Reps.
I'm not saying all Dems are sewer rats or all Reps are highly moral, I'm saying that is how the journalists imply they are by their actions and what they choose to investigate and what they "yawn" at.
So the only hope of investigating the perceived sewer rats is for the ubermoralists to do it as they risk their reputation to be perceived at ubermoralists. However, the medias attitude shines through and the public sees it and from the looks of the elections so far, they don't want people the media expects to be horny sewer rats.
(I see AU is still asleep, sure we'll hear from him this PM)

Au probably has not got a job and does not have the luxury of being retired like we two.

Seriously though I firmly believe that History will prove the Obama years and his administration to be the most corrupt in our long and once great History as a Nation.

I cannot name even one of the members of his inner circle of Czars and Cabinet appointees who does not have ethical problems. Holder and tax cheating Timmy are only the tip of the iceberg. Look at John Corzine, Van Jones and Cherokee Warren to just name a few.

I find myself in complete agreement with Ann Coulter when she said "there are some bad Republicans, but there are NO good democRATs!
