Looks like Solyndra filed for IPO after getting the government loan. I don't understand why they didn't ask for $1.2billion so they could complete the factory instead of splitting it into 2 stages. seems kinda funky.

http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/c/a/2011/09/17/BULV1L4P3S.DTL&ao=3

In December 2009 Solyndra filed papers with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission for an initial public stock offering worth $300 million. For a company that had generated so much excitement, the filing's details were sobering. The company had an accumulated deficit of $505 million and expected to incur net losses "for the foreseeable future."
The second phase of factory construction would cost an additional $642 million.

'Wow, there must really be something going on here,' " said Stephen Simko, a senior stock analyst at the Morningstar research firm. "And then the S1 (filing) came out, and it was 'Holy crap, these numbers are really bad.'

Pretty much everybody had lost their fantasy that there would be a big IPO and we'd all be rich," Eastburn said.

I predict we are about to hear quite a bit about the top .3% of taxpayers. Just a hunch.

Has anyone sponsored the bill yet so they can pass it now?

Harry Reid. It's S 1549
Be sure to contact Susan Collins (Bangor Office (207) 945-0417) and Olympia Snowe (Bangor office (207) 945-0432) to urge prompt passage.

There goes an annoying talking point.

What's not shown is the video before where police were in front of them going on to the bridge.

Ooopsies. Guess they just happened to leave out all the lead up to that point out of their press release video.

And I'm not surprised as some posters response to what has been a peaceful protest. Why do you hate 'Merica so much?

Re: Obama XXI: Kenyan Muslins are ruining this country!

The police said there were repeated announcements that anyone who goes onto the roadway will be arrested.

Before or after they escorted them on to it?

I saw no "ooopsies" in that video. What exactly was the problem?

Peaceful != Lawful.

The whole POINT of civil disobedience is that it is illegal, and the people participating in it know that they could be arrested for it. That's the entire statement that they are trying to make - that they believe their cause is worth the price.

While we're on the subject of particular propositions, not all protests are civil disobedience, either. This one was. They got arrested. And now there's complaining?

I don't think they escorted. But then again, I'll let the lawyers sort that one out. All I will say is they were given repeated warnings (as shown in other youtube videos) to vacate the bridge. They didn't and were subsequently kettled and arrested.

Also, the people near the back of the crowd were allowed to leave since they couldn't hear the announcements. I'd say that's pretty appropriate and lenient.

They allow them on to the road (walkway is full) then arrest them for it. It's a situation of their own making.

Yes, never a reason to complain about police misconduct when dealing with US citizens. Like Mr. Happy Pepper spray.

What a great country! USA Today asked some of these people what they're protesting against. Two didn't know, but were having fun anyway and apparently hoping for some looting opportunities. One was "against capitalism". One was firmly against "greed". Make a stand, brothers!

I saw no "allowing" and definitely no "escorting." There were, what, 4 cops at the front of that crowd. They were supposed to stop the whole crowd on their own? They did the smart thing and retreated until they could regroup with a larger group of cops so they could start taking control of the situation again.

Yes, never a reason to complain about police misconduct when dealing with US citizens. Like Mr. Happy Pepper spray.

Yes, because I clearly said there is never any such thing as police misconduct. You really are having trouble with universal and particular propositions today. I saw no police misconduct in the particular video you posted.

Foxton, I think that's a bit silly. You can't claim that the police didn't stop you from committing a crime as a reason to commit it.

Oh, I was driving 150 mph down the highway but I didn't have a cop telling me not to go that fast.
