Wind is great, as long as it doesn't mar the view from the Kennedy compound.

Where are all these oil fields. Sorry to tell you but the Republicans have delayed research into alternatives sources of power. You can attempt to blame political parties but they sleep in the same bed and most of the representatives were businessmen before they began to play with politics. California is the most energy hungry state, with a swelling population, and the northeast is one of the most industrialized areas but neither political party has made any major attempt to use hydroelectric capabilities, there are no substantial tax-benefits from wind generators or other alternative energy sources. We haven't attempted to utilize geothermal, solar or tidal energy because it is against vested interests in the government.

Wind is great but does have its limitations, as does solar. Nuclear power is the way to go. The rest of the world is eclipsing us on a technology we invented.

Some wells in Texas and Oklahoma have a maximum amount they can pump per week.
They are considered part of the federal reserve.

Yes, Kennedy wants wind turbines but not in his back yard. Hypocritical to say the least.

It doesn't surprise me at all, if you look into your politicians investmentsthey are probably shareholders in big oil companies or taking money from powerful lobbyist's.
