Obama Not Parting Sea For Cape Wind Project Putting Kennedy cronies on the review board for the Cape Wind project Kennedy opposed, as it would ruin his view, seems to be a strange move for a black Green president allegedly committed to alternative energy, don't ya think? Its all an evil GOP plot! What powers Cheney has - out of office but can still dangle Obama on his string. Just words - aka hot air, just not when it comes to wind turbines near the Kennedy compound. Change! BOSTON -- The fate of a controversial wind farm off Cape Cod that's been reviewed for eight years now rests in the seemingly friendly hands of the Obama administration. But Cape Wind's prospects remain uncertain. Obama is pro-clean energy but he's never publicly mentioned the project, which would be the nation's first offshore wind farm. Some Cape Wind advocates say Obama's silence is out of respect for one of his early backers, the late Sen. Edward Kennedy, a fierce Cape Wind opponent. Obama's interior secretary, Ken Salazar, has called Cape Wind "a good project," but two high-level Obama appointees to agencies connected to the project's review have links to its chief opposition. Salazar has said he would decide on Cape Wind by the end of April. riehlworldview.com I am still waiting for an example of Republicans killing an alternative energy project .... like MA Democrats did with Cape Wind and like Feinstein did with 13 solar projects in one swoop.
