how do you compare wind energy to fuel efficiency in cars?? Sudi Arabia of wind energy? Are we going to export wind to the middle east? Paying more per kilowatt is not an efficient use of money.

Anyone talk about how millions of wind turbines would effect the wind patterns? Talk about damaging the environment.

How about nuclear power? That is carbon free energy!!!

He can be a communist or socialist or what ever, but when any person uses an agenda like climate change to push his own agenda on other people then it becomes a problem. My neighboor might be a nazy or a satanist, but I don't care, as long he doesn't force his idea on me.

When wind energy becomes competitive, there will be no need for govt encouragement for companies to buy them.

This actually happened for a time when oil prices spiked. Giant fields of wind turbines were erected in the plains. The govt shouldn't be in the business of putting in 15 billion dollar purchase orders in for power generation. Leave that to power companies which will, and to some degree have, switched to wind because it is a superior investment, not because a bureaucrat forced them.

Global warming myth!? hHAHAahAHa
It's funny and sad.
I don't even know what else to say.
You'd believe anything.
Maybe you'll change your mind when your house is flooded. Maybe you live around Atlanta and your house flooded since you made that comment. Wouldn't that be proof that god has a sense of humor?!
I bet you don't believe in evolution either. Or the heliocentricity of the solar system.
I dub thee, General Douchebag!

Why can't he be a communist? We live in a "free country" don't we?
And as for racist... I bet you're wrong. Most black people have a general mistrust of white people, but I wouldn't call that racism. Maybe there's even a reason for it...
Now I ask YOU, why can't you have rational public discourse without resorting to ad hominem attacks? Does your brain have trouble thinking?

FYI magicred3 ... the state of our environment has a direct relationship to the state of our health. If you want optimal health you need a clean environment and food sources otherwise you are just going to be another victim of a "health care" system which is designed to keep you sick and poor!
