The White House has now been subpoenaed for documents concerning Solyndra. Republicans want answers and democrats want to stall. Of course, the democrats are saying this is all premature and there is no reason for a subpoena.
Click title of post for full story.
Mr. Waxman, a past chairman of the House's chief investigative committee, said he issued many subpoenas, but never against a White House. He said he was always able to reach an agreement with administration lawyers instead, and said that’s what Republicans should try to do in this case.
Yes, but before there was a Republican in office.
The administration offered $535 million in loan guarantees to Solyndra, which borrowed $528 million. Documents the GOP has already obtained show approval was sped up despite the concerns of some officials.
Solyndra went bankrupt in September.
There is a deadline for next Monday for the Energy Department to produce all of the documents.
