No Democracy:Mitt Romney,Barack Obama both use U.S.Solar Energy 'Companie's' Stock Fraud Money Laundering for Israel

(Newser) – Brace yourself for another round of political I-know-you-are-but-what-am-I: Mitt Romney has repeatedly hammered President Obama for the White House's role in Solyndra's meltdown, but now Konarka Technologies, another solar energy company in which Romney invested public funds as Massachusetts governor, has gone bankrupt, reports the Boston Herald. Romney sent $1.5 million to Konarka shortly after he became governor, along with $2.5 million to Evergreen Solar, which also filed for bankruptcy last year, and provided a $2.5 million loan to the biotech firm Spherics Inc., which closed three years later. The Romney campaign had no comment...........


Solar Company Used In Crossroads Anti-Obama Attack Ad Received Taxpayer Dollars From Governor Romney

By Rebecca Leber on May 31, 2012 at 4:20 pm

Ads from Mitt Romney and American Crossroads earlier this week disparaged solar energy, leading up to Romney’s surprise visit to Solyndra today.
The Crossroads ad targets the Obama administration for green energy investments, but features a company that once received taxpayer support from Governor Romney’s administration. Washington Post‘s Greg Sargent points out that one company featured in Crossroads’ ad — Evergreen Solar — received $2.5 million during Romney’s term:
The Crossroads video, which is embedded below, cites the Massachusetts company Evergreen Solar as an example of a company that received taxpayer money before declaring bankruptcy or suffering “serious financial issues” — which the video derides as a “risky investment strategy.” Romney picked up that attack line today, appearing in front of a shuttered Solyndra outlet to bash Obama.
But three weeks into Governor Mitt Romney’s term, Evergreen Solar received $2.5 million from the Romney administration for a “major expansion and to cover operating losses as it tried to become profitable,” according to a February article in Politico. The investment was part of a broader program in which the Romney administration gave millions in subsidies to multiple other companies, Politico reported.......

Note that Mitt Romney's pals at Konarka Technologies such as Eitan Zeira are all Israelis and it was a fraud only to put more money stolen from Amereicans into the pockets and offshore accounts of criminals involved with and very connected to the Israeli government just like so many  of the so-called Israeli 'security' firms such as ICTS International who allowed the Saudi terrorists to board flights 11 and 175 at Logan Airport Boston on 9/11/01 and to crash into Zionists Hank Greenberg's,Larry Silverstein's  and  Frank Lowy's WTC in NYC,accidentally causing them to win the insurance windfall of the 21st century at the cost of the lives only 3000 useless Americans and foreign nationals in the Twin Toers at the time plus untolf hundreds of thousands of innocent Middle East citizens since.
Barack Obama's biggest baxckers have been Goldman Sachs who his SEC Chair Mary Scapiro protects as well even though they even collude with ex Stassi and now Israeli money laundereres the Frin brothers David Abraham and Eugene originally of the Ukraine and crime partners of ex Stassi operative and Austrian Israeli billionaire Martin Schlaff.They bragged of having direct contact to the Obama Whikte House thanks to their Goldman Sachs contacts,etc..and most recently ran a solar algae stock fraud called PetroAlgae.Besides the Israeli connected Solyndra fraud and the Grin brothers' PetroAlgae,Obama has also gifted American tax money to BrightSource as well as native American lands that he and his Israeli solar henchman treat like Palestinians !All of the stock frauds in America and against Americans perpatraited by Israeli fascists and terrorists and corporate saboteurs gretly exceeds the 'official' tens of  billions of dollars annually that the U.S.media and government acknowledge.What Romney and Obama collude with Israelis and the EU's and the UK's Rothschild crime family who also financed ICTS International's incorporation in the U.S. that allowed Israelis to control Logan Airport on 9/11 is ttreason against the American public and the fact that they are our only 'choices' in a U.S.Prersidential election is just more proof that the CIA and NATO controlled U.S. government itself is a lie and a fraud just like the Israeli cxompanies they alloiw to incorporate inb the U.S.with the express purpose of commiting fraud as well as terrorism and corporate sabotage against the American people.

Romney-Backed Solar Company Fails Days After He Faulted Solyndra

By Jim Snyder - Jun 4, 2012 10:01 PM GMT-0600

Republican Mitt Romney, who criticized President Barack Obama last week for backing failed Solyndra LLC, supported as governor of Massachusetts a different solar-power company that has gone out of business.
Konarka Technologies Inc. filed to liquidate on June 1 after getting state and U.S. aid, a development that may muddy his attempts to use Solyndra to try to show Obama’s broader economic failures, a professor said.

“It demonstrates the ‘problem’ of having a record, in that obscure decisions and circumstances come to light, often far removed from their original frameworks,” Burdett Loomis, a University of Kansas political science professor, said in an e- mail yesterday.
Romney, who on May 29 claimed enough delegates to win the Republican presidential nomination, has sought to use Solyndra to underscore his argument that he understands how business works and Obama doesn’t. Romney cites Solyndra’s collapse two years after winning a $535 million loan guarantee as a symbol of Obama’s failure to create jobs with government spending, and the risks of using taxpayer money to fund private companies.
Thomas Pyle, president of the Washington-based Institute for Energy Research, said in an interview that both examples appeared to be an effort to pick “winners and losers.”
“This is clearly not the way we should be doing business,” he said yesterday.

State Financing

Romney, a co-founder of Boston-based private-equity firm Bain Capital LLC, promoted state aid during a January 2003 press conference in Lowell, according to a statement from Ameresco Inc. (AMRC), a Framingham, Massachusetts-based company that also won state help. Romney took over as governor that month.
Romney gave Konarka of Lowell, Massachusetts, a $1.5 million loan, part of $9 million in state financing to clean- energy companies. Romney also announced that a restructured green fund would provide $15 million in support for renewable energy in the state.
Andrea Saul, a spokeswoman for the Romney’s campaign, said on in an e-mail yesterday that the subsidies were approved by a Massachusetts board before Romney became governor.
Asked to respond to the candidate’s backing for Konarka, Saul said Obama has “a lot of questions to answer about why he used taxpayer dollars to reward wealthy campaign donors for bad ideas like Solyndra.”

Kaiser’s Foundation

A foundation run by George Kaiser, an Oklahoma billionaire and Obama fundraiser, was a leading investor in Solyndra. An investigation by Republicans in Congress hasn’t found evidence the administration gave Solyndra the loan to reward a political donor.
The administration has said the award was based on its merits and had been advanced during the Bush administration.
“Every day we see a new example of Mitt Romney’s hypocrisy,” said Lis Smith, a campaign spokeswoman. “Just one day after he pulled a political stunt outside Solyndra, we learned even more about his record of picking winners and losers in Massachusetts when one of the companies he gave a loan to went bankrupt.”
Supporters of clean-energy programs said Konarka’s collapse shows Romney is being hypocritical for criticizing Obama’s support for renewable-energy subsidies because some projects fail.

Similar Efforts

“Romney and allies are attacking the president for efforts similar to his when he was governor,” Dan Weiss, senior fellow and director of climate strategy at the Center for American Progress Action Fund, which says it promotes progressive policies, said in an e-mail.
As president, Obama sought to make clean-energy support a central feature of the 2009 economic stimulus. The loan program through which Solyndra received its award provided about $16 billion in guarantees before ending last year.
In a May 2010 visit to Solyndra, Obama said the factory being built with taxpayer help was proof that “the promise of clean energy isn’t just an article of faith.”
Last week, Romney stood outside Solyndra’s shuttered facilities in Fremont, California, saying the company was a symbol of Obama’s failure to create jobs.
In 2003, then-governor Romney said the Massachusetts fund could become a “major economic springboard” by focusing on job growth in the renewable-energy industry.
One major difference between Solyndra and Konarka is the size of support. Solyndra filed for bankruptcy in September, about two years after it won its $535 million U.S. loan guarantee. The company also collected about $1 billion in private investment.

Private Capital

Konarka attracted $170 million in private capital and $20 million in government research grants, according to its website.
Howard Berke, chief executive officer of the company, said June 1 Konarka had been unable to obtain financing and was unable to continue operations.
The company, which said it would lay off its 85 workers, listed $100,000 to $500,000 in assets and $10 million to $50 million in debt in its Chapter 7 filing in U.S. Bankruptcy Court in Worcester, Massachusetts.
At least four other U.S. solar-panel manufacturers filed for bankruptcy in the past year as the price of the products fell 50 percent on an oversupply and expanded production in China.
Pyle said Romney’s past support for state subsidies to clean-energy companies shouldn’t deter him from criticizing Obama’s more generous aid.
“It’s a little bit of a stretch to say, ‘He did it too, so let’s call it a draw,’” Pyle said.

Corporate Cronyism: Solyndra and Evergreen Solar If pleading the "Fifth" smells, the Solyndra drama will prove the stereotype applies in this instance. A good old-fashioned scandal in an election year pumps up the media juices. The timeline on Solyndra tells only part of the history. The linkage of corporate cronyism dodges the real world result of "Green Energy" frauds. These shams can be traced back to the Enron schemes, especially their industrial wind model that defrauds the public. The miserable record from the shovel ready stimulus spending should alarm every American. The distorted idea of using public funding as seed money for private startup companies goes against every aspect of free enterprise. Heretofore, such government nepotism for campaign and climate change supporters was reminiscent of a fascist economy. Now it is sold as a post-industrial initiative to save the planet. Popular climate expert Paul Driessen laments in Climate Prostitutes, Charlatans and Comedians, about the nature of the favoritism corporate welfare game. "Rather than developing our nation’s own vast natural resource and human resources, America is wasting billions on politically correct technologies and companies, like Evergreen Solar, which got $486 million in taxpayer subsidies before going belly-up this month. As Al Gore likes to say, that is unsustainable." The corruption in the Obama administration needs dissection under a microscope. Andrew C. McCarthy in National Review sets the stage on the continuation of this insidious pattern of bipartisan abuse of the taxpayer. "The Solyndra debacle is not just Obama-style crony socialism as usual. It is a criminal fraud. That is the theory that would be guiding any competent prosecutor’s office in the investigation of a scheme that cost victims — in this case, American taxpayers — a fortune. Although Solyndra was a private company, moreover, it was using its government loans as a springboard to go public. When the sale of securities is involved, federal law criminalizes fraudulent schemes, false statements of material fact, and statements that omit any "material fact necessary in order to make the statements made . . . not misleading." And we’re not just talking about statements made in required SEC filings. Any statement made to deceive the market can be actionable." With the FBI raiding the offices of Obama’s crony capitalist financiers at Solyndra, we may finally be moving toward acknowledging the obvious: "green energy" is a multi-$billion swindle warranting criminal prosecution. From the Wall Street Journal: "Congress has been investigating the company, which received a $535 million government loan guarantee in March 2009 and announced August 31 that it is filing for bankruptcy. Yesterday’s FBI raid is the first hint of a larger government probe, which is being conducted in cooperation with the Department of Energy’s Inspector General." Obama apologists use their standard playbook excuse as ABC News reports. "By the time the Obama administration took office in late January 2009, the loan programs' staff had already established a goal of, and timeline for, issuing the company a conditional loan guarantee commitment in March 2009," said Jonathan Silver, who heads the Energy loan program.” Climate Progress publishes this timeline (during the Bush years provided below) — verified by Department of Energy officials — that shows how the loan guarantee came together under both administrations. May 2005: Just as a global silicon shortage begins driving up prices of solar photovoltaics [PV], Solyndra is founded to provide a cost-competitive alternative to silicon-based panels. July 2005: The Bush Administration signs the Energy Policy Act of 2005 into law, creating the 1703 loan guarantee program. February 2006 – October 2006: In February, Solyndra raises its first round of venture financing worth $10.6 million from CMEA Capital, Redpoint Ventures, and U.S. Venture Partners. In October, Argonaut Venture Capital, an investment arm of George Kaiser, invests $17 million into Solyndra. Madrone Capital Partners, an investment arm of the Walton family, invests $7 million. Those investments are part of a $78.2 million fund. December 2006: Solyndra Applies for a Loan Guarantee under the 1703 program. Late 2007: Loan guarantee program is funded. Solyndra was one of 16 clean-tech companies deemed ready to move forward in the due diligence process. The Bush Administration DOE moves forward to develop a conditional commitment. October 2008: Then Solyndra CEO Chris Gronet touted reasons for building in Silicon Valley and noted that the “company’s second factory also will be built in Fremont, since a Department of Energy loan guarantee mandates a U.S. location.” Objective analysis must acknowledge that the race to paint the landscape "Green" has done little more than burn greenback notes in a ceremonial ritual to the climate warming gods. The Solyndra prototype for disaster is not an abnormality. Reuters point to the similarities of another solar company that took the public for a ride with government backing. "Prior to Solyndra, Evergreen Solar was the most high-profile U.S. solar company to collapse. Evergreen was once at the forefront of U.S. renewable energy technology and had planned to produce its solar wafers in Massachusetts. Ultimately, even a plan to shift manufacturing to Asia could not save it." Jarrett Skorup from the Mackinac Center for Public Policy states, "The bankruptcy of "green jobs" darling Solyndra is in the news because it could potentially cost U.S. taxpayers $535 million due to a federal "stimulus" program loan guarantee. The Silicon Valley solar-panel maker’s failure comes on the heels of another "green" corporate welfare beneficiary also going under, Evergreen Solar (with a factory located in Midland). These deals were big losers for Americans. Both businesses repudiated claims that company management or the current market for "green" energy products were the cause of their failure. Instead, company officials cited intense competition from lower-cost Chinese manufacturers: "The solar power market is intensely competitive and rapidly evolving," wrote Evergreen Solar’s chief executive officer, Michael El-Hillow." Mr. Burns of "Evergreen Solar" Brian Caffyn of First Wind Infamy? The Boston Globe adds the sorry details. "Evergreen Solar Inc. will eliminate 800 jobs in Massachusetts and shut its new factory at the former military base in Devens, just two years after it opened the massive facility to great fanfare and with about $58 million in taxpayer subsidies. Evergreen itself has a factory in Wuhan, China, built in collaboration with a Chinese company, Jiawei Solarchina Co. Ltd., and with money from a Chinese government investment fund. The company had previously said it would shift some production from Devens to the Wuhan plant but yesterday was the first time it said Devens would be closed." The State of Massachusetts wants answers. The Boston Globe reporting continues in Auditor to look at Evergreen incentives. "State Auditor Suzanne Bump intends to review public subsidies for Evergreen Solar, the energy company that recently announced plans to shutter its Devens plant and move more 800 jobs elsewhere despite receiving millions of dollars in public funds, as part of a broader review of the state's entire system of tax incentives." Will the Obama administration seek the same in the Solyndra episode? Ms. Skorup concludes, "Those favoring these energy subsidies may disagree, believing that sending taxpayer money to politically connected select companies is actually a "jobs creator." Disregarding the mountains of evidence that government is notoriously bad at picking economic winners, just looking at these two solar companies should show that this is a bad argument: The companies combined to employ about 1,500 people at the time of their bankruptcies (a few hundred for Evergreen Solar and 1,100 for Solyndra). On top of the federal funds, Evergreen Solar received $58.6 million from the state of Massachusetts and millions more from Michigan sources, while Solyndra got $535 million in federal aid and more from California. This is, in the words of my colleague Michael LaFaive, an expensive game creating the illusion of jobs." What is the lesson from these two defunct ventures? Mixing public subsidies as a source of venture capital is obscene. Allowing green industry swindlers involvement in writing the rules for the government programs guarantees that only the insiders will benefit. Accepting campaign contributions from slick promoters that seek government funding for their projects is out right criminal. The blame game between the two political parties of the same tree begs the real issue. The parasitic diseases that infect the party political system is like a heart rot. Heart rot in living trees is caused by fungi which have the ability to decay wood. These fungi gain entrance to the wood of the tree through wounds, branch stubs, etc., which expose the bare wood. The fruiting bodies, mushrooms or "conks," are common on trunks of decaying trees. The Enron culture underpins the "Green" corporate cronyism that wastes public money, drives up the cost of energy and perverts the entire political process. Industrial Wind and the Wall Street Cap and Trade Fraud is the step elder sister of the Solyndra and Evergreen Solar failures. Scam rackets between corporate/government partnerships breed new generations into the corrupt system of heart rot. The financial fungi are spreading because the parasites are using public monies to pay for high price lawyers, so their Solyndra clients can take the Fifth! As long as "Green" subsidies exist, the sun will not shine on the tree of life, in a country of climate prostitutes. SARTRE - September 25, 2011
