venture capital. why are we providing cash. >> since solyndra lost half a billion dollars in bankruptcy and looking more closely at this, is now the time, given that we're doing belt tightening and have such a problem with deficit and debt to invest in these. i feel like these came up during the debate and the fact checkers made a point, you only hear about the failures and don't necessarily hear about the ones going forward. and this company had to layoff or plans to layoff 800 workers because they were counting on a tax break that will expire the end of this year and people aren't buying this product anymore if they're not going to get a tax break for it. >> clayton: they get incentives to get a hybrid car and mitt romney made a point during the the debate, a friend pick winners and losers in this thing, but you tend to pick losers, referring to the failed companies and stimulus, his line during the debate, you recall. >> alisyn: good line. and. >> clayton: a zinger. >> alisyn: what else is happening. aspiring actor and martial arts expert has been charged with the killing of missing

bag after the failure of solar panel maker solyndra. now a pair of government agencies trying to make sure lightening does not strike twice. >> 20 minutes after the hour and time for quick headlines. governor mitt romney getting support from renowned evangelist billy graham. he told romney he would do everything he can to help him out. romney met with graham and his son at graham's home in south carolina. they all prayed together at the end of their meeting. more bad news for american airlines. they are cutting back on the flight schedule. it effects 31 flights a day. they are blaming the cuts on pilots calling it maintenance issues. they are embarrassed over seats coming lose on several flights. >> let's go to stories you can bank on this smoerng. uncle sam saying no way to the company that lost millions of tax payer dollars. they cut 5 # $50 billion. what's the trob with the plan? >> the irs as well as the ende department opposed the bankruptcy plan of solyndra the solar company that got half a billion dollars from taxpayers before going bankrupt in the fall. the irs says solyn

million. that's how much solyndra may have cost us. the number more than doubled what you, the taxpayer, originally invested in the failed solar company. a court recently okayed it's bankruptcy despite objections from the government. next. and finally, 2%. that's how much you will make if you are pop har in high school. a person found people like ferris buehler, who can adjust to any social relationship, have better relationships in college and in the workforce and end up making 2% more money. now you know. brian, mr. popularity? >> in many ways mitt romney succeeded last night by shifting the debate to one issue that americans care most about. >> in order to be able to fulfill our role in the world, america must be strong. america must lead. and for that to happen we have to strengthen our economy here at home. you can't have 23 million people struggling to get a job. you can't have an economy that over the last three years keeps slowing down it's growth rate. you can't have kids coming out of college, half of whom can't find a job today or a job that's commensurate with their

can't shovel hundreds of millions of dollars to companies like solyndra. we just can't do it. leave that money in the private economy for companies that are meritorious who can really create jobs. >> you say that the third key issue is religious freedom. what do you mean? >> well, it's this whole phony war on women that i believe my opponent and the democrats have cooked up just because their records on jobs and the economy is so bad. she says things like well, because we don't have 51% of congress filled with women, we have to spend all our time talking about contraception. but if only congress were full 51% of women we could talk about debt and deficit and jobs and the economy and taxes. we don't have the luxury of waiting until there are 51% of the seats in congress filled with women to talk about the main issues in this election which are debt and deficits and bringing those down. getting the economy freed up. getting taxes down, regulation. but she always talks about the fact that we need more women. and this is kind of a central centerpiece of her existence. >> yet, there was

. you tell me why it is that this administration, which could come up with $530 million for solyndra to reward political cronies cannot come up with $20 million a year to open these voting information centers that are required by federal law? and this administration, the justice department has sued states like florida trying to enforce the law against illegal immigration voting, alien voting that has done nothing to insure the protection of the right to vote of our military men and women. i find it absolutely appalling. >> steve: and if you look -- i believe it was in july that the administration sued -- what was it? in ohio to block early voting for military members. >> yes. the administration and the democratic national committee took the position that giving military voters three extra days for early voting discriminated against nonmilitary voters. and they won that suit in front of a liberal federal judge. so this administration and the department of justice under eric holder have been very aggressive in claiming that any efforts to protect the integrity of the election somehow d

administration insists that all loan guarantees given to green energy companies like solyndra were based on the merits and not on political cronyism. >> brian: new e-mails obtained by the washington times paints a different picture. stuart varney is here. last night he said the success of the green companies were better than the average investor on wall street. >> ryan had some good points to be made if joe biden would let him without interruption. but that was not going to happen. look. these e-mails from the washington times show that a contract award, awards of taxpayers' money to green energy companies are not based on merit. no. they're based on political string pulling. if you're a green energy company and you want to get your hands on some taxpayer money, how do you do it? you go through the political process. you ask for mittcal strings to be pulled in your favor. these e-mails demonstrate precisely that in the case of bright source. that is a solar energy company with a big project in california. that project was in some trouble. they wanted more government money. so out w

before people of one state. we report you decide. solyndra you thought cost half a billion dollars. the new bill is in. you are on the hook for a lot more dough. this bible changed the world. i'm kirk cameron. four hundred years ago our forefathers risked their lives to bring this bible to the shores of america. because it contained the principals for economic liberty, political liberty and religious freedom. the 1599 geneva bible. it was the first complete english translation, complete with chapters, numbered verses and 300,000 utterly unique study notes. it actually came out before the king james version and because the government didn't authorize it, it was outlawed. but it was a bible by the people, for the people, the book that built america. and now for the first time in 400 years it's available again in a beautiful leather edition. i have one, i want you to have yours too. please visit genevabible.com and get your copy of this rare and historic version of god's word today. thank you and may god bless you. >> president obama said cut travel expenses b the inspector general sa

to lobby for obamacare. separate accounts used for solyndra program. when it was dicey, they moved off line -- remember, the taxpayers are paying for the e-mail accounts for these people. so we had a record, we have access to the record. we know who is controlling it, you can't just slip slip and fall on delete. they didn't agree and moved over to private e-mail accounts for certain things they didn't want us to know about. >> steve: sure. and speaking of hitting the delete button, it sounds like shortly after the benghazi attack, they put one thing up and then next thing you know, it disappears. here is a full screen of what they had put out on their web site and it says, oftentimes these concerns are the result of increased mediattention to the issue rather than credible evidence of a terrorist plot. you know, in the beginning they were trying to blame the movie and it was spontaneous. next thing you know, within 24 hours, the government knows it is terrorism and poof, that thing just disappeared, chris. >> yeah. i think rewriting history is just a twist on what i've proved which

to solyndra, and fis car and tesla and i friend of mine said you don't just pick winners and losers, you pick the losers, this is not the kind of policy to get america energy sescure. second topic you said you get a deduction for taking a plant over sea. i have been in business 25 years and i have no idea what you are talking about. maybe i need a new accountant but the idea for getting a break for shipping jobs over seas is not the case. we do have to bringg money from over seas back to. >> gretchen: that line happened to her. i got to hear that was to me, that is the mitt romney that a lot of people didn't think existed and wanting to see more of which is calling out the factings. >> brian: i lot of people sing nursery rhymes or talk about greenn energy. >> steve: put an eight year old in front of that thing because they don't understand what is going on. it is interesting wall street journal said that was the best debate effort by a republican nominee since ronald reagan since 1980. what happened to the united states. michael moore got on twitter. this is what happens when you pi

breaks into solar and wind, to solyndra and fisker and tesla. and i had a friend that says you don't just pick the winners, you pick the losers. >> peter: and what do you say about that? >> i think it a fantastic quote. i think that mitt romney when responding to barack obama talking about exxon, and making tons of money at the pump. and in quebec the government was making so much off the gas at the pump and people got mad and put up a pie chart on the gas station and showed you the profit margin for the gas company versus revenue to the government. i would have pro cussed on that, young people probably want cheaper gas, it not about free stuff, but keeping the government in constitutional parameters. big bird, and you go everyone where young people are saying mitt romney wants to kill big bird. he doesn't. he want him to operate on a-- i grew up with big bird, ab big bird lunch box and kids love that one. if big bird can't make profit with merchandise and big bird should probably be defrocked. >> peter: a lot of folks under 30, about 12% of americans that don't have a job. and they'
