Obama Chooses a New Template for his Administration

Lying to Con­gress, with­hold­ing cru­cial infor­ma­tion.  Out­side of the Global Warm­ing Estab­lish­ment, where have we seen this before? From Paja­mas Media:

The report from Spain’s Uni­ver­si­dad Rey Juan Car­los — which was the sub­ject of a George Will col­umn in theWash­ing­ton Post on June 25, 2009 — showed each “green job” that had been added by Spain’s aggres­sive wind energy pro­gram cost Spain nearly $800,000 and resulted in the loss of 2.2 jobs else­where in the economy.

Eight times, Obama had pub­licly referred to Spain’s pro­gram as being a model for a U.S. wind energy program.

The 900 pages of emails, obtained by the Com­pet­i­tive Enter­prise Institute’s Christo­pher C. Horner, show staff mem­bers from the DoE’s National Renew­able Energy Lab­o­ra­tory (NREL) and the EPA devel­op­ing a response to the report. They also show them coör­di­nat­ing the response with the Cen­ter for Amer­i­can Progress, plus the Amer­i­can Wind Energy Asso­ci­a­tion (AWEA) and the Global Wind Energy Coun­cil (GWEC) — two wind indus­try lob­by­ist groups.

What the emails show runs con­trary to state­ments made to Con­gress by the Assis­tant Sec­re­tary of Energy Cathy Zoi — the Obama admin­is­tra­tion response to the Span­ish report was in fact insti­gated at the request of the AWEA. It was then writ­ten with the close coöper­a­tion of the AWEA, the Cen­ter for Amer­i­can Progress, and the Union of Con­cerned Scientists.

The emails con­cen­trate on the polit­i­cal impli­ca­tions of the Span­ish study — and how to dis­credit it.

Cathy Zoi again. So she’s not just the Win­dows Czar. She cer­tainly seems busy. Con­flicts of inter­est. Rich shadow fig­ures fund­ing agen­das which have to be lied about to Con­gress.  Can suit­cases of cash and 18 minute tape gaps be far behind?

Hot Air is spot­light­ing a Time arti­cle contending

You know, Obama acts a lot like … Bush

But, you know, if we think REAL HARD, an image from days of yore starts to form of a pres­i­dent whose admin­is­tra­tion Obama’s is rapidly com­ing much more closely to resemble.
