I wonder if Duke Energy will receive a refund of the $1 million fine it agreed to pay last month for killing eagles at a wind farm.

Just “how” will Obama “allow” this? Is there a Federal Statute on killing eagles or not? Did he do this by Executive Order to the Department of Justice? They won’t ‘prosecute’ these crimes for 30 years (or the wind turbine’s lifetime)? Or is it all just one big stick pulled out of his ass.
The point to this is that his Executive Order could be rescinded by the next President - I certainly hope so. Further, if they’re truly just ignoring the law, perhaps a true next President could appoint a special prosecutor to indict complicit DoJ personnel for conspiracy and collusion to subvert Federal Statutes.
The moral bankruptcy of the left shifts into overdrive under a desperate President.
I swear to GOD: I thought eagles could fly!
The regime’s “wind farm” continues unabated.
What does the eagle represent? I rest my case!
Where is the outrage from the Left?
Oh boy! Now I can go back to shooting spotted owls from the sunroof in my Prius!
First the Government is admitting that the lifespan of the windmills is 30 years. Personally I don’t believe they will last that long and then only with a great cost in maintenance, but I won’t argue the point.
After 30 years the cost of putting these things up will have to be spent to replace them. Well Maybe by then America will be building them and not buying them from the Chinese. Or maybe by then the Chinese will have foreclose on the United States and we will all be Chinese.
Living in obamaland is living in the Bizarro World!
In truth, there is no plan. This is just one more of those issues that liberals push out of view and ignore.
Because I lack the ability to embrace mutually incompatible positions I'll never be able to be a liberal.
Results matter. Truth matters.
The only eagle I want to see killed are the Philadelphia Eagles - on the field of play but not literally! LOL! Go Redskins!
Delusional lunatic psychopath liar.
UNBELIEVABLE!! Our state of Oregon and to some degree Washington and California are economically dead due to a bird that had to be saved when we harvest our #1 resource, trees.
The saving of the spotted owl has devastated our state economy for 20 years!
Killing a bald or golden eagle is a federal crime. I know sheep ranchers that have been fined $2500 for killing an eagle with a baby lamb in its mouth, good God what is happening to our country!!
Her imperial edicts will make Commie/Libs heads explode.
Eagles are stupid. Crows lure them near wind farms then go eat their remains.
My guess, the cleanup crews for the birds will be those that can handle the feathers legally...
Look for Crony-Statist Contracts with ties to the Regime in this arena?
Brietbart are you lurking?
The War on Birds continues unabated........
