"The FBI has confirmed to ABC News that federal agents are conducting a search this morning at the offices of Solyndra, the now-bankrupt California solar power company that received $535 million in federal loans under a green energy program touted by President Obama...."

".......One of the lead private investors in Solyndra was an Oklahoma billionaire who served as an Obama "bundler," raising money during the 2008 presidential campaign.

The bundler, George Kaiser, has declined to comment...."

I wonder if they are truly 'executing search warrants' or policing the scene to clean up incriminating evidence?

Great..the government is right on this AFTER THE FACT.

It was money given to a contributor, not a solid, promising business venture.
Just one of many taxpayer funded failures.

They get to walk away and we get stuck with the bill.

Oh and now the government is going to give 2 more solar companies money..to the tune of another $500 million.

Bingo again. The damage is already done, though - they can't erase that embarassing clip of Obama's tour and praise of the place. He can't wipe that egg off his face.
