Yes, reading is fundamental. Read your post and it gives you some clue as to who is willing to sell out our beautiful community to a corporation who was convicted and now is being sued.
A letter is being passed around town by a local businessman who signed the petition that, I believe, wrongly claimed voter irregularities. A petition which I believe was directed toward and intended to prevent the seasonals from their legal vote on local matters in Cape Vincent.
He claims in his letter that wind is not the problem but the people who hate each other. I disagree with that and remind the letter writer that he is only getting one side of the political wind story since he has not been seen at town meetings of the past or the present and only seems to be getting the story from the voters for wind.
He also hints in his letter that this hate “of each other” changed the government. Again, let me remind the letter writer that the government was changed because the past public officials had become corrupted by their own wind leases. It was not hatred that changed the government. It was the majority’s understanding of government ethics violations and how they can impact a democracy.
I have been involved with friends on both sides of the wind issue. As for my anti-wind friends, I find that they stick to the issues such as the economic and health impacts. Personal hate is not in their vocabulary.
On the other hand, my pro-wind friends seem to always get right to the issue of who they hate and why those they hate, including the seasonals, should not have the same civil rights as they have.
In my opinion the community problem was ignited by industrial wind and fueled by the greed of the voters for wind.
More and more resistance to industrial wind develops every day. It is time for Cuomo, Owens, Russell, Blankenbush, Ritchie, the county legs and locals who want to keep their political jobs to recognize that despite what Bp says, the communities are NOT in favor of wind. As far as Cuomo goes, it is time he dump Darrel Aubertine and live up to his claim of integrity and ethics.

Many of us wanted to be proud of the former Ass.member, Senator and now Ag. man. But he signed wind leases and sold us out.

What the hell is Cuomo thinking off?
To me this is a letter from a man who has no concept of ethics, is not very smart, and ill educated in the concepts of American Democracy.
But then, I understand, at the time he wrote this letter he was already being paid money by wind developers.
