Jay Carney: George Kaiser Visited White House for Charity

Valerie Jarrett
"Director of White House Charities"


Yep. That's what White House spokesman Jay Carney told the White House press corps today. Believe it or not, ABC has this story below. (Maybe they believe Carney.)

So let's see if I got this straight. George Kaiser, as we know, was a bundler and contributor for the Obama 2008 campaign. He is also a major investor in Solyndra, the solar panel company that got $535 million from the government and is now bankrupt. Are ya with me so far?

"Uhhh.....yeaaaah."


In addition, we learn that Kaiser visited the White House 4 times in the days leading up to the loan approval and some dozen times afterward. He met with Valerie Jarret and her staff as well as others.

And it was all about charity.

Here is the important point to be asked by the media (if they care to): I am not prepared to call Carney a liar. According to his job description, if his bosses tell him to go out there and tell the press corps that the world is a big triangle, then his job is to state exactly that. The question someone needs to ask Jay is who gave him that bunk about Kaiser's visits having to do with charity?
