It’s what conservative bloggers are buzzing about: the financial relationship between Do-Nothing Nancy Pelosi and Big Wind pusher T. Boone Pickens.

#dontgo reports that according to disclosure statements, “in May 2007 she invested in T. Boone Picken’s clean energy fuels corp., CLNE, which is the sole sponsor of a proposal in California to funnel $5 billion in state funds and $5 billion in Federal funs to this corporation which will indirectly help them create a giant wind farm in the Texas panhandle.”

Follow the money.

Get the whole scoop here and here.

Know your eco-cronies.

Flashback: See-Dubya asks, “Why is T. Boone Pickens all over my Internet?”

I knew this was a scam when Pickens said "we can't drill our way out of this".

T. Boone is for T. Boone, not the US Taxpayer or Mother Earth.

Where does Kalifornia get 5 billion bucks for wind machines in Texas?

Kalifornia has wind in the San Joaquin Valley where they can use their own windmills.

The state is BROKE and they are investing in another state????

There is no question that Nancy is too close to Big Wind.

I was thinking more in terms of generation (I'll let you fill in the method). I also had subliminal thoughts on the term "Bosom Buddies"...

It has possibilities, but it needs a one liner...

“Nancy Pelosi and Big Wind: Something just doesn’t smell right.”

Are we getting closer?

“Nancy Pelosi and Big Wind: Something just doesn’t smell right.”

It's QUITE possible that you may have gotten a small whiff of her book!

Click on the reviews at Amazon.com and you'll SURE smell something! (That is, if Amazon.com hasn't WASHED all the reviews, like they've been doing)

We need a new topic for Breaking News on Wind Power. You’ll never guess what I think it should be called.
