As we wind down to the 2012 elections, it is important that citizens have as much information as possible about those people for whom they will be voting. Therefore, we will begin posting information about individual candidates.
We will do our best to provide information that is outside the Main Stream Media — you can find that on your own. We do not say that we will give equal time to the candidates. Our purpose is to provide information that you can use in vetting a candidate. How much is provided for each candidate will depend on what we decide is informative and interesting.
We’re not in the “fair and balanced” mode – we will ”throw it all out there and let the chips fall where they may.” Candidates is a tough category because feelings run high either for or against — if you don’t like a post, be an adult and just move on. That’s what free speech is all about. And, of course, you are welcome to post a comment — just keep it civil.
We do not and will not ENDORSE candidates — that’s your job. May God bless this country and give us the wisdom to choose moral and wise leaders.

But what happens when taxpayers subsidize efforts that actually produce electricity? As people in the Pacific Northwest have discovered, they end up subsidizing green-power generation — and non-generation:
