"Waxman-Markey seems dead, and Europe's southern periphery is bankrupt. But the wind-subsidy proposals being floated in Congress suggest that American political leaders have yet to understand that "green power" means generating electricity by burning dollars."This is from a website I was reading yesterday, I think it was from the Heritage Foundation. I found it very apropos. Then the following article showed up in my mailbox. Very interesting, but you know it will elude the MSM. The article also pointed out how the wind industry has cost the taxpayers with basically nothing to show for it. I decided to link that article as well: http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424052748703630404575053781465774008.html?utm_source=Newsletter&utm_medium=Email&utm_campaign=Heritage%2BHotsheet This is not the article I went looking for, but it's a good read. I will continue to look and post a link. It was mostly on wind turbines.
Years ago, Rush said something I'll never forget...I'll have to paraphrase but essentially, he was aghast at the arrogance of people, to believe that we could actually do something to harm the planet. Like he said at the time,we may be able to destroy ourselves, but not the planet. But you also know, there's no one more arrogant than HO.

I'm often reminded of this when I travel through my home state, North Carolina. In the eastern part of the state, there are abandoned tobacco barns, standing in fields and near houses, slowly being retaken by nature. I may have mentioned this before. There's an old WWII air base south of my hometown. It's now a nature preserve. Three paved runways, all of which nature has reclaimed.
The picture at the top was taken last summer. I used to get ice cream there, but now it's an eyesore, and as you can see, is being reclaimed. It'll take a while, but whether it gets bulldozed or just disintegrates, it will eventually disappear. Just like us, if we don't change out Washington.
Thanks for reading.
