Study: Plenty of wind to power East Coast?
Liberals talk a good game when it comes to alternative energy sources. The following study basically states that the East Coast can be powered by the wind.

However one of the most powerful Democratic Senators, Edward Kennedy, is blocking the establishment of a wind farm on the east coast in the waters off Cape Cod. Reason being is that he can see if from his house.

Is this a not in my back yard issue or does Kennedy really support wind power?
People, this is not a personal attack against Kennedy. He does a lot of double speak about topics and this is one of them. Its great somewhere else, but not in the Cape where his family has a house.
Argle...it is not really a personal attack...it is fact...Kennedy does not want it because it would be in his back yard...The person asking this question is just pointing out the hypocrisy of the senor Democrats...it could have just been as easy a Republican, but if it had been it would have been all over the Liberal Media...this situation is just like a City Counsel wanting to put a new land fill in your county...it is always anywhere but where they live...
