    There is some cool new cement technology that addresses heat absorption and reflection and the release of carbon dioxide.

    </font>[/QUOTE]Once again, SMM, you choose to make inane statements rather than use facts. Do you have evidence that Sen. Kennedy would not be in favor of enviromentally-sound energy sources if it obstructed his view? If so, link please. If not, your statement is just a way to interject a slander into the discussion that has no bearing on the subject at hand.

    SMM, I read a few of the links from your Google search, and I found no indication it is about his view. Yes, it could be, and it would not surprise me if true, however he has cited other issues in the article Curtis linked to:
    You never know what another person really thinks, but so far I find nothing to sustain your accusation. If you can point to one, fine. Otherwise, I say you still have not given proof.

    Also, if you do find such a link, it is wise to include it in your initial post, so that you don't appear to be making baseless assertions.

    Complain? No. Poncho can believe whatever non-sense he wants to believe in. I'll use the freedom of this forum that we both enjoy and respect to tell him when I think he is wrong.

    The simple fact of that matter is that both parties do this and it isn't all that big of a secret. The GOP sets Democrats up to expose positions they think are vulnerable. Dems do the same. That's what Clinton did.

    FTR, I think many of the Executive Orders would have been signed had Gore won. For one, Gore is an envirokook and would have done much worse on his own. Second, Clinton and the Dems would have had no interests in setting another Dem up to look bad... unless you are a real conspiracy theorist and think they'd have done it to Gore to help Hillary's chances of becoming Prez.

    MP...

    There is *always* an excuse _NOT_ to practice or allow Evironmentally Friendly things in your own backyard...

    And, people in power will always find them to protect their own backyards and force it into the little guys backyard...

    It is easy to accuse the Republicans of such behavior.

    Why, do you immediately go to the defense of a Democrat as if they could never possible act out of self-interest?

    I think I see a pattern here? :D

    SMM, you are wrong indeed. I simply expect evidence to support your assertions. I would do the same if you made a claim like that against, oh, let's say Pat Buchannan.

    So first of all, politicians will be politicians, we all know that, regardless of their party affiliation. I never said they will not act on self-interest. Remember Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs? Self actualization is a high motivator.

    Secondly, I did say I would not be surprised if Sen. Kennedy did have self-interest in this, but you first made a statement without evidence. Then when asked for a link, your evidence fell short, and in fact, supported just the opposite.

    You should know by now that baseless assertions will be challenged, and that weak evidence will be pointed out. Your first post on this may have assumed we all were familiar with the story about Cape Cod, but we weren't (or at least I wasn't). Secondly, not everyone came to your same conclusion.

    If the "effect" is the issue then the reason he gave may be worse than if his opposition was due to a personal inconvenience.

    Here we have a "friend" of the environmental left who supports clean alternative energies (and spares no opportunity to cast stones at the GOP on the environment or energy) saying the local tourist economy is more important than clean renewable energy. IOW's, "someone needs to suffer... but not the people who might or might not vote to keep me in office."

    Meant to say "would not have been signed". Sorry, wouldn't let me edit.

    I read your article.
    Rep. Ted Stevens of Alaska (beneficiary of the multi-million taxpayer funded "bridge to nowhere") is the one who stuck this fast-track sweetheart deal into a Coast Guard bill, if I am reading this correctly. This windmill farm is likely to wreck Cape Cod's main industry, tourism. Now, do you really think that provision is about environmentally sound energy or is it a Republican out to spite a Democrat while deceptively cloaking it in Green?

    Yeah, me too.

    Also, if I am not mistaken, the VP casts the Tie Breaker Vote in the Senate

    Ah sweet angel, if you knew your facts, you'd know that Gore said,"During my service in the United States Congress, I took the initiative in creating the Internet." and that he actually did take the initiative in Congress.
    Enemy of rock 'n' roll? How so, by simply requiring labels? Are you saying that you oppose the labels?
