@markknoller A reverse GM! All about the campaign $$. The unions paid it in GM, investors had paid in Solyndra. Crony capitalism at its best

@markknoller Are any private investors in the Obama administration?

@markknoller Good thing they weren't GM bond holders.

@markknoller Poor negotiation by the US government...

@markknoller Doesn't that strangely look like the car maker bailout where holders of senior ranked papers got shafted?

@markknoller Thanks Obama!

@markknoller I'm still waiting to get paid back for Iraq
