More on McCain's Climate Change Speech Today

We've already used McCain's record to throw some cold water on his big climate change speech in Oregon. Visit the Wonk Room to see why the location, the North American headquarters of the Danish wind-turbine company Vestas, is so hypocritical. The short version: Republicans in Congress, McCain included, have slashed the United States budget for wind energy since Carter was president, which is why McCain has to speak at a Danish turbine manufacturer instead of an American one.

Eh..., this is not extraordinary (McCain acting the advocate of wind energy), what gets me is how that GE TV commercial asks whether anyone really wants to see twenty-ungainly-thousand wind-turbines all lined up--OUT AT SEA!!!!!!!!

We're not seeing the forest for the SHEER AUDACITY of those SOBs...

No one can possibly rationalize here, how the out-of-control Africans, or the crazy dopers, mark such a travesty as being, in truth, SOCIAL SCIENCE (yet atually...??????)

No..., only a fool on a hill would think that the Maglev Wind Turbine (20% increased generation capacity, with 50% decreased operational costs, plus a low-center-of-balance (perfect for offshore wind farms and it's environmentally friendly)) and the new generation of solar cells (produce as much as 35% more electricity--See Squeezing More Juice Out Of Solar Panels) have been maginalized for some adequate reason--OUR POLITICIANS ARE CORRUPT, CORRUPT, CORRUPT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

INSTEAD OF DIRTY-DEALING POLITICIANS UNDERMINING THE SOLAR POWER INDUSTRY by deleting incentives from the last energy bill (all expire 08/08), in favor of tax breaks for BIG OIL, what we need are more left-wing rags like MOJo (we're counting on you here...)...

Or, were you too hoping for a nice piece of that Alaskan Oil Pie...
