Pres. Rehires Workers Prior to Renewable Energy Plant Visit

The National Renewable Energy Laboratory in Golden, Colorado, is getting back $5 million in funding, so 32 workers can have their jobs back prior to the President's visit.

Bush blamed a budget mix-up for the shortfall at the Golden facility, saying that sometimes when funds are appropriated, "the money may not end up where it was supposed to have gone."

Is a Bushian "budget mixup" any different from a Clintonian "bureaucratic snafu"?

No wonder the Warmonger-in-Chief has become such bosom buddies with the Whoremonger-in-Chief.

In fact, IMO the NREL should be abolished. If you want innovation and fresh ideas, the absolute last place you'll find them is in a nest of govt. bureaucrats.

Let the private sector work its magic. We'll get alternative energy faster and cheaper.
