Someone ought to check the recent budget legislation to see if Congress Critters slipped in language and appropriations to exterminate bald eagles. Everything else dear to our nation is dying. Eagles may be next.

A writer for the WSJ put it:

“There are two scandals here First, wind turbines are killing legally protected eagles in the name of climate change, but whatever reductions in carbon dioxide may be occurring is equivalent to a baby's burp in hurricane.

Second, the wind energy industry is lobbying to extend the 2.2 cent per kilowatt hour subsidy that has fueled the turbine building craze. Last year, this subsidy from taxpayers rang up $12 billion (that's right, BILLION.)
