So this administration, in my view, even though they talk about middle class America, they are not nearly as interested in middle class America as they say.

It is important that we all be aware of precisely what is going on in Washington and the impact of decisions being made there.

Everyone in America is very much aware of Solyndra, and Solyndra is troublesome for many reasons.

why would we be making loan guarantees to companies that strong financially?

And the American people are blatantly being misled.

if we were voting on that today, because of today's current financial situation in America, I do not believe the results would be the same.
