Obama Bundler’s Husband Awarded Over $1 Billion in DOE Guaranteed Loans

Jason and Arvia Few are Obama bundlers. (Black Tie)
The husband of one of Barack Obama’s top bundlers has received $1.2 billion in federal loan guarantees from the Obama Administration.
The Free Beacon reported:
New disclosures show that one of President Obama’s bundlers is the wife of an executive at an energy company that received a more-than-$1.2 billion Department of Energy (DOE) loan guarantee for a solar power plant.
Arvia Few is a bundler for the Obama re-election campaign who has promised to raise between $50,000 and $100,000. She began bundling for Obama in the first quarter of 2012. Her husband, Jason Few, is an executive at a company that has benefited handsomely from the Obama administration’s clean energy spending, records show.
The U.S. Department of Energy granted NRG Solar a $1.237-billion loan in September 2011 to help build NRG’s California Valley Solar Ranch, which is described as “a 250 MW alternating current PV solar generating facility” by the U.S. Department of Energy.
Few became senior vice president of Houston-based Reliant Energy in 2008. He was named President of Reliant in May 2009 when NRG Energy acquired Reliant for $287.5 million. He currently serves as executive vice president and chief customer officer of NRG Energy.
“This investment and its outcome represent a pattern in which the Obama Department of Energy took promises of technological development with an undue amount of credence,” says energy expert Kenneth P. Green, a resident scholar at the American Enterprise Institute.

[If the announcement took Marin by surprise, it was nothing
compared with what came next. Mr. Lucas said he would sell
the land to a developer to bring “low income housing” here.
“It’s inciting class warfare,” said Carolyn Lenert,
head of the North San Rafael Coalition of Residents.
[..]
Whatever Mr. Lucas’s intentions, his announcement has unsettled
a county whose famously liberal politics often sits uncomfortably
with the issue of low-cost housing and where battles have been
fought over such construction before. His proposal has pitted neighbor
against neighbor, who, after failed peacemaking efforts over local artisanal
cheese and wine, traded accusations in the local newspaper.
[..]
In a telling fact, a family of four with an annual income of $88,800 can
qualify for housing assistance in Marin, which has about 6,500 income-
restricted housing units, according to the county.]
tee hee, indeed, uppiteehee at that..

Where is Senator “Campaign Finance” McLame on this abuse of the Treasury? Is he “reaching across the aisle” to put a stop to it or reaching up his A$$ to try to find his head?

he’s only doing the job he was groomed to do, or do you believe
Obama is all alone and acquired the highest office in the land by
hopey changy chance?? /s/
[you meant generically to make a point, not to be taken personally]

Obama Years Ago Helped Fund Carbon Program
[In 2000 and 2001, while Barack Obama served as a board member
for a Chicago-based charitable foundation, he helped to fund a
pioneering carbon trading exchange that is likely to fill a critical
role in the controversial cap-and-trade carbon reduction scheme
that President Obama is now trying to push rapidly through Congress.]
much much more here & here & in all of the connecting links, ie:
[In 1953 Strong was hired out of the UN Security section and sent
to Kenya by the Sidley Austin law firm acting for New York-based
Rockefeller Family trusts which now handle university endowment
funds and $55 trillion in the Carbon Disclosure Project.]
