They don't have to talk Eric Holder and the social justice dept. swept in with the FBI to save the day. Buy taking good care of all the evidence no one in Congress will ever know what happened and who knew. The only way would be if someone squeals. And we all know what Chicago politicians do to them.

If this was a Republican administration, this scandal (half billion taxpayer dollars lost, CEO & CFO taking the 5th, White House involvement, etc.) would be on a 24 hour news cycle on every media outlet for weeks. The Solyndra deal may dwarf every other previous scandal we've known.

Obama is a dirty crook from Chicago.
This is what you get!

Given his personal involvement in this ever-widening scandal, doesn't this appear to make obama a conspirator in a possible criminal case?
