this is an excellent "wedge issue with the" LL's. they don't want any wind mills messing up the view or the sailing where there third and fourth big energy hungry homes are located.
If they weren't guarded by the MMS..the energy usage of such mansions would be underattach just like SUV's.

I WISH President Bush had made this an issue during the campaign as he signed into law one of best "Renewable Portfolio Standards" as Governor of Texas. In the debates he could have turned to Kerry and said, "As Governor I talked the talk and walked the walk. You say you want energy independence and more renewables yet you won't show leadership in your own state. How can the American people trust you with the energy of our country?"
