Courting the West

Today President Obama comes to Colorado, after visiting Arizona and Nevada, three states he needs to win in November. His more-of-the-same agenda includes opening up public lands for clean-energy private investments, spurring the military to go green, and doling out more tax incentives to the domestic clean energy sector. That worked well with Solyandra, you may recall. I like this photo of Governor Jan Brewer of Arizona pointing her finger at the Prez. Obama does not do well with women with whom he works, as reported in Ron Suskind's book Confidence Men.
Update: Iowahawk notes that the Sunday Washington Post has recognized that Solyandra is a "scandal," even though the Post's liberal perspective misinterprets who are the real victims of the scandal. http://iowahawk.typepad.com/iowahawk/2011/12/journalistic-sun-stroke.html
Update 2:  "This country needs an all-out, all-of-the-above strategy that develops every available source of American energy," and "except the Keystone pipeline." That's what you call an "internal contradiction." http://onecosmos.blogspot.com/
