Unbelievably Naive

A former law practice colleague who follows this blog reports having encountered an individual who apparently actually believes (i) that the government's half billion dollar plus Solyndra loan guarantee never was discussed or even mentioned during all of George Kaiser's many visits to the White House, and (ii) that the government's even larger investment in Tonopah Solar also is just fine and dandy and has nothing to do with Nancy Pelosi's brother-in-law having an interest in the venture.

Mr. Kaiser was the Obama campaign contributor and bundler whose investment fund had a major interest in  the solar industry venture that recently went bankrupt, leaving 1,100 employees unemployed and the taxpayers on the hook and holding an empty bag in a position subordinate to private investors in the company.
