Yup, this paragraph sums it up.

The Solyndra debacle is rapidly becoming a White House scandal. It is far too symptomatic of an Administration that is founded not on principle, but on Chicago-style cronyism and political corruption in the worst sense of the term. With the passage of his Stimulus, Obama professed great pride that it was free of "earmarks and pet projects" that he said are fraught with "abuse." Apparently, it's only pork, a pet project, and abusive if somebody other than Obama does it.
 
While I dislike corruption if we cut the corrupt oil and coal financing over to corrupt solar and wind energy then at least we're working with the better of two options.
 
Sometimes those faceless government bureaucrats fiddling with their sums are much better at thinking straight than politicians and the entrepreneurs that like to hang on to their coat tails. I'd be willing to bet it's a bit more often than "sometimes".
