Since 2009, the Obama administration’s FWS has allowed wind power developers to apply for five-year permits to kill eagles as part of normal wind farm operations.

How about shooting one if it's headed for the killer blades? Same thing - no?

Like the government is going to listen to them. The government screwed them decades ago.

Injuns, eagles, and green energy. This one’s a PC trifecta.

The liberals’ heads are exploding trying to choose between politically correct wind farms and saving the eagles.

Where is the Schadenfreude art?

I love how all the groups liberals create turn on each other all the time.

I have a solution to this problem. Change the Indians’ most revered bird and our National Symbol to the bed bug. After all, 0bama’s America is descending into the perfect environment for the blood sucker.

Yet there are several tribes who are alowed to kill protected animals for spiritual purposes. “Do as I say, not as I do.

Uh, like NO.

Windfarms like so many other liberal “alternative energy” schemes are phoney and not worth the death of one bird.

I side with the Indians against the Obamabastard.

Can you imagine any private development that would result in eagle deaths ever being allowed to be built? How many private developments at the cost of millions have been stymied because they might even encroach on the habitat of some endangered critter. This is hypocrisy.

What happens to little baby Eaglets when their parents don't return to the nest with food?

So the gophers are building their dens at the base of the windmills to lure the eagles into the deadly blades. Those smart little sons of .........

“We have a contact at zero five zero. It is positively identified as an eagle.”

“Sound the alarm, but have section 7 remain upright in their holes. We’ll see if we can lure that bast**d into the blades. Tally-Ho!”

No such thing as Native Americans. The DNA tests prove they are Chinese who took a wrong turn on their way to get some General Tso’s Chicken (He outranked Colonel Sanders).

Double kudos. For fighting the fight and for calling themselves American Indians.

If a company had made these wid farms economical enough to not need government subsidies to stay in “business”, and the government wasn’t trying to exert more control by “helping to save the planet”, it would be shutting the deal down and imprisoning the folks who put them up.
