Shocking! Windmill Owner Wants More Wind Subsidies!

http://www.dcexaminer.com/opinion/columns/TimothyCarney/Shocking_Windmill_Owner_Wants_More_Wind_Subsidies.html

"Would a major newspaper editorialize with surprise that 'even Kraft Foods says we need to eat more macaroni and cheese'? Would guests on The McLaughlin Group get away with saying that 'even Budweiser is lobbying for more beer consumption'?

Then why do talking heads and journalists exclaim with surprise that 'even T. Boone Pickens,' is lobbying for greater U.S. reliance on wind power? Don't they know he owns the largest wind farm in the world?"

Great TV commercial (thank you AlGore...) to put hundreds of millions of taxpayer money into TBoone Picken's pocket.

And we sheep just follow the leader into the lamb-chop factories.....
