A mighty wind blows off Nantucket – From the Boston Globe – “Congress reaches pact on wind farm”: “Congressional leaders reached an agreement on the proposed Nantucket Sound wind farm that would give the head of the Coast Guard -- but not the governor of Massachusetts -- the power to order changes to the project or scuttle it entirely if he finds that it would interfere with navigation.” This is a setback for Ted Kennedy who has fought against the wind farm because it will hurt his view of the ocean.

good. its a little hypocritical to attack republicans for not being advocates of renewable power and then oppose renewable power just because it is close to home.

Curious...

Does the wind only blow off Nantucket when Kennedy is there? All the hot air he spews must be a contributor.
