ALWAYS REMEMBER WHO BROUGHT US ALL THIS SHIT. ALWAYS REMEMBER WHO PUNCHED THE OVERDRIVE BUTTON ON THE MARAUDING ENEMY ARMY EPA. IT WAS YOUR DEAR "CONSERVATIVE" BUSH SENIOR.

There is still a possibility the wind power tax credits could come through as a stand-alone bill or tied to other legislation. But Washington insiders say that is unlikely to happen before the election in November.
By then, the wind industry says, it will be too late to avoid massive layoffs and project delays, because wind projects slated for 2013 should already be far along.
The tax credit, which debuted in 1992,
