A CLASSIC EXAMPLE OF GOVERNMENT INCOMPETENCE Last night I saw a filmed report on the news that Waxman said the CEO of Solyndra told him the company was solvent just one month before they went bankrupt. He went on to say he doesn't have a crystal ball so he could not be responsible for knowing that the company was planning to file for bankruptcy within a few weeks... WHAT??? This is PROOF that this idiot politician never did a simple due diligence study and look at the company's books and balance sheet!!! ANY businessman or woman would know this is the first thing you want to do, even on a loan of $500.00... and absolutely before giving the $500 billion dollars of taxpayer money... this is WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY over the top, just how stupid can these idiot politicians actually be? All of them should go to prison RIGHT NOW!!! GZ

Boehner to Call for Reforms in Taxes, Entitlements Published: Thursday, 15 Sep 2011 \| 10:44 AM ET By: Reuters cnbc.com The top U.S. Republican Thursday will call on a special congressional committee to consider tax reform that would close loopholes but not raise rates as part of its bid to cut the deficit, an aide said. House of Representatives Speaker John Boehner also will say in a speech that the "super committee'' should consider changes to benefits programs like Medicare and Social Security , according to a summary provided by his office, the aide said. In addition, Boehner will deliver what promises to be the most comprehensive Republican response yet to President Barack Obama's proposed $447 billion jobs creation plan. Republicans so far have said they they could accept some elements of that plan but have rejected the tax increases that Obama has proposed to pay for it. Boehner will argue that Republicans and Democrats should work together to reduce business regulations and lower taxes and spending to boost job creation and economic growth, according to his office. Boehner is due to deliver the speech at 1 p.m. EDT at the Economic Club of Washington.
