Cape Wind Approved

At a press conference today in Boston, Interior Secretary Ken Salazar and Massachusetts Governor Deval Patrick announced approval of the long-disputed and litigated Cape Wind project on  Nantucket Sound off Martha's Vineyard and Nantucket.  Kudos to the Obama administration for making energy independence the priority it needs to be.  And thanks to Deval Patrick who supported Cape Wind while others in political office in Massachusetts did not.

This is the first major U.S. wind farm to be approved, over the objections of "environmentalists" like the Kennedys and Kerrys who didn't want their waterfront home views affected.

Read more about Cape Wind and environmental hypocrisy from a previous post, A Mighty Wind.
