Environmentalists bleated for decades against using fossil fuels and coal for power and always said there were better alternatives. It doesn't get any greener than to use wind and yet they still are against it. It's plain to see that they are simply anti-American traitors and only want to weaken the free-est country in the world through their anti-job, anti-energy-independence protests and lawsuits because they are socialists and only believe in a controlled society with a communist system.

As usual, liberals demand others do things that they won;t do, like use wind power.

As I understand it, ol Walter Cronkite, a pathetic liberal, someone old enough to KNOW BETTER and surely smart enough to know how lucky he is live in the great nation, is leading the fight to stop the solar wind mills.
What a great big bunch of phoney rich liberals who don't want their cozy view messed with.....who prevent nuclear power plants from being erected but who only want the wind mills in the backyards of the poor folks....who obviously don't need a good view.

stop the construction of a test tower currently operating
Nothing has made sense so far today. Why start now?

That should upset the Nantucket Land Bank that now charges a 2% "transfer fee" on the sale of all property sold on Nantucket in order to purchase land on Nantucket for conservation purposes. I was watching a program where one of the Land Bank's representatives stated that they hoped to raise that to 4% of the sale because they needed more money. One developer was forced to sell his property to them under the threat that they would take his land by eminent domain if he didn't.
One plot of land bought by the Nantucket Land Bank was turned into a golf course. I guess they were concerned about tee conservation.

That's not it. It's just that these towers will block the views of the multi-million dollar homes of some the guilty rich liberals that live near them.
If they were to put the towers in a poor neighborhood where the libs really.... really... cared about the people and out of their site.
I'm sure that the rich liberal enviromentalist would be thrilled.

No, this isn't the only place they're protesting clean energy, they're also trying to stop them in the Pennsyvania working-class countryside. They simply are anti-American, anti-job, and anti-business because they want controlled society through communism. I'm sure that there are rich liberals that are against these by Cape Cod because of the view but these protests are going on in more places than this.

No, like I said, check the Pennsylvania wind projects and you'll see them trying to stop them there too.

Those windmills are ugly, take up a lot of space, and are harmful to birds and the environment. An oil well that can produce the same amount of energy takes up far less land and is far less destructive to the environment.

The Swimmer(D) and his family have been fighting windmills with high priced lawyers for years.

I like those big windmills myself, by the way. I wouldn't mind living by one.

I'd rather see oil wells. I did like the cute oil wells in CA that were put in agricultural fields and decorated to look like giant grasshoppers.

A lot of those in southern Illinois. There were several around the house I grew up in. We always heard the boom boom boom when they were running. Our property had 3 inch oil lines running here and there in the woods. Maybe that's why I don't mind these mechanical structures, I'm used to them.
