When a News Journal article begins with the following, one just has to laugh:
Trouble is, they [Renewable Energy Credits] may be the next target for Delaware tea party activists, who see them as wasteful government intervention into the free market system that just end up costing consumers more for electricity.
Next target for Delaware tea party activists? Did they sleep through the embarrassing tea party loses in Delaware back in November? Even better is that the right-wing Caesar Rodney Institute is latching on to this nonsense. And could it get any more nonsensical than this:
But [John] Nichols [member of First State Patriots] is among a growing contingent of skeptics. He questions whether buying more renewables will lead to “green jobs” and calls them an unreliable source of energy, dependent on whether the wind is blowing or the sun is shining.
Facepalm.
