So sad. The Solyndra employees had to work over Christmas to steal taxpayer money:

Solyndra LLC’s founder, seeking $535 million in U.S. loan guarantees, said he was appalled when the Bush administration delayed action on aid to the solar-panel manufacturer.
“Many people worked through the holidays to make sure we were doing our part to stay on track,” Chris Gronet said in a post-midnight e-mail to an Energy Department official on Jan. 12, 2009. Gronet, who was also the company’s chief executive officer, spurned an apology from an Energy Department official.
The collapse of Solyndra has brought criticism by Republican lawmakers of President Barack Obama, whose administration eventually approved the guarantees. Solyndra filed for bankruptcy protection on Sept. 6. E-mails released by the Energy Department today, showing Gronet as an unhappy applicant, documented that the guarantee was delayed although not rejected under Republican President George W. Bush.
“I was appalled to learn on Friday that our application is being delayed yet again,” Gronet wrote in the 2009 e-mail to Steve Isakowitz, the Energy Department’s chief financial officer.

But, yes Virginia, there is a Santa Claus and his name is President Obama.
