Getting scorched by Green energy scandals and now the -- -- fiasco is growing.

Manufacturing.

And in Finland that's correct but those -- you think that's a good use -- endless taxpayer money yep.

Well one congressman said it boils down to taxpayer dollars going to finish carmaker to make -- and electric cars for Hollywood stars.

Joining me now is Wyoming senator John Barrasso thank you joining us horrible we talked about this briefly this morning but here it is -- -- a half a billion dollar loan.

There's another car company Tesla it moves is gonna make a 125000 dollar sports -- and delivered a -- either.

And then -- we talked about there may be three or four other solar companies with the same issues what's going on at the Department of Energy.

That you can walk up to them and say I need a half billion bucks an experiment and try something and they get the check.

And it seems that's the magic number 500.

Million taxpayer dollars -- the president said well we made it you know bad bet.

This isn't the president's money to bet this book about money belongs to the American taxpayers and you know the president early on promised five million new Green jobs if He wants but jobs did.

People back to work I have the the western -- Caucuses jobs frontier this is about red white and blue jobs energy jobs and we know or in America American energy and opportunities to put people work -- good paying jobs.

It you just have to scratch your head and say what do they not did you write about the math.

So we need all the sources of energy and making this administration keeps picking.

Winners trying to pick winners and losers and it hurts every -- talk about then once again that western caucus.

Issued under the idea head of -- guys please see nine for me this is Jay Carney.

Defending this -- -- The modeled it will be built in the United States will be built in the United States and that the -- the loan program that was provided.

Will assist in that endeavor.

Not only that the model that is being built in Finland relies on suppliers and others.

Here in the United States.

This plant is doing exactly what it said it would do much sure they told us they're going to be building these cars and in Finland -- -- No -- the president said new units is all of this so called stimulus money timely temporary targeted get Americans back to work in the United States.

I don't think anybody that I know that supported -- didn't support and -- I voted against the so called stimulus package.

I don't think anybody saw this coming but the administration doesn't seem to care they wanted to -- shovel the money out.

Show the money out the door and get sort of thing's gone.

What about -- now we've we've learned as since we did little investigating that Al Gore may be involved in in one in in which way -- perform an investment into the into fiscal motors.

We've learned that another Obama Butler was involved in this linger in the we've also learned that.

But Elon Musk who founded Tesla Motors in the West Coast.

Was a huge Democrat and Obama.

Donor in 2008.

Is this sort of -- -- here.

Well.

You have a lot of concerns being raised by all of the things the American people are.

Are seeing which is writing the president's approval numbers are down so low and why people think that the country is heading in the wrong direction.

And the upcoming election 2012 is going to be basically a referendum on this president and our economy.

And at this point the president deserves an F for great for our economy front before bringing -- to the panel tell -- jobs we can create if we opened up I guess drilling and tracking across the country.

For American jobs -- three million jobs we can create we gotta get rid of the regulations we need a regulation moratorium.

American.

Job providers and job creators are -- -- this is it's killing us the regulations the cost of health care in the threat of ever increasing taxes and if you.

We we know what doesn't work and what doesn't work is more borrowing more spending over regulation and threatening to increase taxes on the -- -- those people to create jobs.
