What if they had a solar auction and nobody showed up? Obama finally had his first federal solar auction, with the BLM opening up millions of acres to installation of solar panels. The auction was Thursday. There were no bids. As in zero. Zip. None.

I wonder if they were autioning land for oil if there would have been bids? and maybe acual energy production?
Actually, that might have been another reason nobody wanted to bid. Under Obama's Administration, when you lease federal land for oil production, after you've paid millions for the lease, they won't give you a permit to actually drill. It would be the same here.
What? No lines of green-loving Hollyweird people waiting to buy these? What about Al Gore? No media retards that push this green monsense? And what about Obama - shouldn't he be the first one to purchase one of these Electric lemons?
If Obama did buy them, he would be using our money, so I'll give him a pass on that one.
From reading the headline, I honestly was expecting to find they were auctioning off the equipment from defunct solar companies.
Of course not, that would have actually made some sense!
"sniff, sniff" I smell another government multimillion dollar "incentive" program ramping up. Of course it will be a boondoggle, and be "awarded" to an old friend of the Mooch, but what the hell....it's only (taxpayer" money, right.
Perhaps mandated solar hats on everyone and you have to stop every so often and plug in so you can help charge the grid...that would be typical libtard thinking..like Harry Reid saying everyone wants to pay more taxes, yea everyone wants to wear a solar hat..fucking libturds...I really have the urge to buy a used army truck and start running over libturds on the freeway......
Years ago I was a truck driver, I used to wish I had one of the plow blades they use at the airport to clear the runway to push people out of my way.
That would be a great tool to dispose of libtards.
Just make sure it's always set to kick them to the left side. We don't want them over here.
Looks like they've reached the point of diminishing returns on this scam, now watch them make somebody buy this land with a generous bribe. With Taxpayer dollars of course.
Man talk about a kick in the balls. Just maybe the solar power pushers will get the hint that their pipe dream is a screwy idea and worthless.
Where are the environmentalists who should be complaining about all these reflectors screwing up the pristine desert?
Oh they complain, trust me. It's funnier than hell. Environmentalists trying to save the planet with solar panels being stymied by other environmentalists trying to save the planet. The two sides are in court constantly hurling invective at each other. Then when they told the solar energy plants in southern Nevada and eastern California they had to move the stupid desert tortoises to new homes, they discovered the damn things peed all over themselves in terror when you pick them up, which resulted in dehydration and death because they're supposed to save that pee for dry spells. Then at the other end, where they tried to relocate them, the coyotes in the new area said, "Hey, what are these things, are they edible?" and quickly learned to flip the tortoises on their backs and eat them. They could only get to the feet and a bit of the legs, but hey, coyotes aren't fussy, they'll take what they can get. It's an easy snack.
Leftists would be funny if they weren't so destructive.
It's those f*cking Republicans again!
