$737 Million Green Jobs Loan Given to Nancy Pelosi's Brother-In-Law

Via III Percent Patriots

Despite the growing Solyndra scandal, yesterday the Department of Energy approved $1 billion in new loans to green energy companies -- including a $737 million loan guarantee to a company known as SolarReserve:

SolarReserve LLC, a closely held renewable energy developer, received a $737 million U.S. Energy Department loan guarantee to build a solar-thermal project in Nevada.

The 110-megawatt Crescent Dunes project, near Tonopah, Nevada, will use the sun’s heat to create steam that drives a turbine, the agency said today in a e-mailed statement. SolarReserve is based in Santa Monica, California.

On SolarReserve's website is a list of "investment partners," including the "PCG Clean Energy & Technology Fund (East) LLC." As blogger American Glob quickly discovered, PCG's number two is none other than "Ronald Pelosi, a San Francisco political insider and financial industry polymath who happens to be the brother-in-law of Nancy Pelosi, the Minority Leader of the United States House of Representatives."

But wait... there's more! One of SolarReserve's other investment partners is Argonaut Private Equity:

    That's because THE LATTER IS ALL THE FORMER REALLY IS!!

    "Green Jobs Program", "Stimulus Program", "Pick a Program" -- they're ALL just quid-pro-quo, using YOUR MONEY AND MINE to pay off their friends - and ensure a nice percentage gets passed through back to those who made sure the vig got payed to begin with...

    F***ing thieves.

    They're not even PRETENDING any more!

    Tell me again what banana-republic this is we're living in??!!

  3. MEanwhile, the sheep are all brainwashed that it's the RETARDLICANS who are "in bed" with the crony-capitalists and it's the DEMMUNISTS who are "looking out for the little guy"....

    Sure -- with money stolen from folks like me at the point of a .gov GUN! -- they give you just enough beans & tripe to keep you on the plantation while they're dining on filet mignon & champagne with Massa up at the BIG house!

    Idiots!
