alternative energy is for the little people

environmentalist and liberal types in general tout the promise of renewable or alternative energy while lamenting the lack of movement towards it.

the nationral review online's jonah goldberg describes the drama surrounding a proposed cape cod wind farm which could be filed in the "actions not words" category. massachusetts senator ted kennedy leads the opposition to the project despite the fact that it may provide a significant part of the area's energy needs.

at best it's the old nimby problem, but smacks more of the old "do as i say not as i do"

[L]et's not hear fossilizing liberals like him, Kennedy, and Huffington talk about the need for the wealthy to make sacrifices anymore. And they better not get caught with one of those "Think globally, act locally" bumper stickers on their SUVs, either.
