Some recent statistics from New Mexico where our little troll in charge is doing her damndest to turn us into a windmill and solar panel powered state. She is after the coal fired PNM plant at San Juan and wanted it shut down two years ago but it hasn't happened yet. Recently the numbers came out for electrical use this slightly hotter than normal summer and guess what? Green energy, aka windmills and solar panels, supplied just 5% of the power. If not for the PNM plant much of NM would have been without enough power to operate.
She is also determined to do away with the petroleum industry in the state although it generates about 40% of the state's budget. While in state she touts the industry's importance and also that of the generating plant. She gleefully undermines them with the feds and buys completely into their green agenda. The state even flies a fleet of helicopters to detect methane emissions in the oil producing areas and the feds are going to duplicate it. More wasted tax dollars.
Colorado is now known as California East and she is doing everything she can to turn us into California South East. We have a good opponent that recognizes the real world running against her in this fall's election. I fear the norther liberals though. They see the world thru TM7's ultra black glasses.
There is a commercial running on the Albuquerque TV stations that shows a windmill with the caption "100% percent emissions free". Um, has anyone ever seen the equipment to haul these things to their site, the equipment to erect one, the equipment to build, haul, and erect the power lines to carry the current they generate, power the factory to build them, or what it take to ship them to our country? 100% emissions free my happy rear end. try telling that to a greenie and yo just receive "duh" look.
