Apparently everyone is against that wind farm. It's an eyesore and a hazard to birds. Why don't you admit you're pimping for the big polluters by making the phony "limousine liberal" claim, as if it's in any way wrong or hypocritical not to want solar and wind farms anywhere and everywhere.

Any smart person would agree that the best place for such farms is in remote areas where they do not affect property values or migratory birds.

The real intent here by the corporate rightwing is to discredit the champions of environmental sanity like Gore and Kerry by pointing to very minor hypocrisies. Indeed, if the location of such a wind farm made sense, Kerry would back it 100%.

The rightwing also likes to lie that Gore is tied to Occidental Petroleum and some polluting phosphorus mine just because his parents owned some stock or something. This kind of phony baloney "limousine liberal" nonsense needs to stop. Even Bill O'Reilly ranted against such stupid finger-pointing excuses by the corporate rightwing. Indeed, it makes no difference who drives an SUV or owns stock in Exxon. We ALL ought to be backing a cleaner environment and clean renewable fuels, including Exxon, no matter what. It should not be a partisan issue except the Bushie rightwing is in the pockets of big oil and polluters. The real crime these days is the outrageous energy gouging and corporate corruption amongst the big energy thieves, and how they'vce corrupted both our White House and congress under Bush-Cheney-Delay. That is the issue you should be focvusing on, not where a wind farm should go. Also, be aware most of the rich property owners in the area who oppose this are Republicans. The vast majority probably.
