Why not invest in time machines?

The Obamunists list of failures continue to mount. I don't want this guy anywhere near me, I'll probably go blind.

None the less, I decided to keep score of the failed "green" companies that Obamunists feel are so crucial to our future.

Solyndra
Evergreen Solar
Elephant Pharmacy
Think Global AS
VeraSun Electric
SpectraWatt

For those who believe that solar and wind power are our future let me introduce you to this concept called "reality".

See, there have been TRILLIONS invested in these technologies. From private companies to governments worldwide, people have been trying to make this work. How much more money will it take to make these technologies work?

If were only a factor of money, we could invent a time machine using the same business model.

There are venture capital groups (rich people) out there sitting on GABILLIONS of dollars to invest in something that would yield the kinds of returns green energy could yield yet they're not investing. Why? Unlike the government, that's their money. One of the reasons rich people are rich is that they don't like to throw money around on boondoggles.

As an aside, how did Daryl Hannah get her rear end to Washington to get arrested for protesting against the Keystone Pipeline? I'd bet my life savings that she used fossil fuels.

So, in her mind, it is environmentally more friendly to purchase oil from a middle eastern dictatorship, ship that oil via tankers halfway across the world, and use existing pipelines to move that oil from port to refinery?

And these people proclaim that they're so much smarter than those knuckle dragging conservatives?
