Rep. Cliff Stearns (R-FL) was for investing in renewable energy before he was against it.
Stearns took shots at green energy at a Wednesday hearing on Solyndra and earlier this week at the Heritage Foundation, where he said the “whole idea that the president is going to create jobs from this green technology is suspect.”“The president should realize that green energy isn’t going to be the solution,” Stearns said. “I’m convinced that there are more that are going to go bankrupt. I think the president is unwise to spend the government’s money on industries that are not viable.”
