Don't worry, the media will downplay the Fiskar boondoggle as well.

Obama might be pretty good at pissing money away, but I have yet to hear him just straight up loose Billions of cash stacked on pallets...

So he can keep doing that until he loses a pallet of money?

Everyone knows two wrongs make a right so as long as Bush did something wrong there's no reason to hold Obama accountable for anything.

"A Fisker Karma luxury hybrid, purchased brand-new for testing by Consumer Reports, embarrassingly broke down this week before official testing even began. Consumer Reports paid over $100,000 for the vehicle and was perplexed that it stopped working just a few days into the check-in process.

Consumer Reports said that they had owned the Fiskar Karma for only a few days with less than 200 miles on the odometer. It was during a speedometer calibration run on their test track, when an error message appeared and the car would only shift into Park or Neutral. After letting the car rest and attempting to restart, the same error message reappeared. The testers let the car sit again and went through the process a couple of times before calling the dealer to get the Karma towed.

“We buy about 80 cars a year,” says Consumer Reports tester Tom Mutchler, “and this is the first time in memory that we have had a car that is undriveable before it has finished our check-in process.”"

That sucks.

But what is Blue_Balls talking about, "Obama's proposal increase from $7,500 to $10,000 for GM’s Volt"?
