"I wish it need not have happened in my time," said Frodo.

"So do I," said Gandalf, "and so do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us."
- J. R. R. Tolkien

What is the difference between Pope Francis or any random wacko Hollywood Communist, like Joy Behar, being the Pope? I don't see any difference at all. They all say the same things. They all think the same.

I seriously think that JFK would be mortified if he could see what the democrat party has become.  I have no doubt that he would instantly change parties, the same way that Reagan did.

@Kamaji

JFK was a punk,and would do anything his daddy told him to do.

Serious question. HOW do these things wear out? There are several "wind farms" around here,and those big-ass blades turn too slowly to get damaged by birds,and in case of big wind or something similar,they can be disengaged. Hell,for all I know,they can even be locked down so they don't move.

Sooo,WHAT is it that damages them and causes them to be replaced?

Well,not ALL of them are white. Some are black. Mostly preachers being pimped-out by their white paymasters,but there must be at least one more sub-category of soulless,selfish,greedy pig at play.

The ONE absolutely true thing that can be said can be said of all of them,and that is that they are ALL evil bastards.

The goal is to turn the people into obedient serfs,not serve them.

And there are many,MANY people all over the world would would gladly trade their freedoms and independence for "free" food,housing,and medical care,even if it IS second-rate.

The REAL "selling point" to communism in MY mind is that it warms the hearts of the lame,the lazy,and the jealous by making everyone equally powerless and miserable. Under communism,NOTHING is YOUR fault,it is EVERYBODY's fault. It is the "system that is failing,not YOU. YOU are still perfect in every way,just like your mama told you  when you were still an actual baby,and not an adult baby looking for a free ride.

Serious question. Has there been ANY point in Joe Biden's life where he HASN'T been a totally corrupt incompetent mental feeb?

Part 2: WHO has been his behind the scenes "handler",if he HAS been a feeb his whole corrupt life?

SOMEBODY has to be "pulling the strings" for that dummy or he would have never even gotten elected at a local level,so WHO is it?

What perverted 'nasty' old man.  I'm sure Biden, Epstein, and Weinstein, were very good friends. They are all the same.

BTW: Normally those dirty old men who act overtly sexually aggressive toward the women/girls they meet are compensating. They try too hard to give off a sexually bold demeanor to compensate for their inability to actually perform. I've seen it first hand many times.

[Out to lunch with a gray hair senior while in the military. He started aggressively hitting on the college age waitress. Worst of all, he was asking for her Facebook/Instagram name. I doubt this guy has even the slightest idea what "Instagram" is. I wanted to crawl under the table, so embarrassing. But he was seemingly serious and laughing his head off. The girl ran away and never came back, and so did I.]

@Kamaji

Thanks!

I still find it hard to believe those blades are spinning at 150 MPH,though. Yeah,I know they are HUGE,but even being that big,150 mph is still 150 mph.

I am a little shocked that rain causes them so many problems. First of all,WTH are the operators even allowing them to spin when it's raining? Ride by one of those "wind farms" and at least 30 percent of them aren't even turning,regardless of the weather.

On top of that,they have storage batteries to provide electricity for times when conditions are too rough for them to operate.

Also,there are some pretty freaking tough metals out there that could be used IF they aren't too hard to be used in such applications.

I was thinking that if there was anything vulnerable about them,it would be the bearings in the blade shafts and generators. Talk about systems taking a load!

AND......,given what it costs to buy,ship,and install blades,it might even be cheaper to use something like industrial diamonds on the leading edges to reduce wear and downtime.

Or is the real problem the fact that blades that last longer would eat too deeply into the manufacturers profits? After all,it ain't like you can order new blades for those things from amazon.

BTW,is there any reason the old ones that are buried couldn't be dug up and have new "leading edges" attached to them so they can be re-used? If NASA can glue tiles on rocket ships and space shuttles that stays in place,WHY can't this or similar glues be used to rebuild these blades at a much cheaper cost than manufacturing a new one?

At the terminus,  those blades they are going a lot faster than you think.  100-150 mph.

Which in turn is the biggest lie and falacy of this as being a green industry.  What they fail to tell you is that though estimates vary, somewhere between 400,000 -600,000 birds are killed annually by these these monstrocities.

In fact one of my son's earlier girl friends (a biology major graduate) was offered a job to enumerate bird and bat deaths (number and species)  from these devices.

That is the part I find the hardest to believe. Birds fly for a living,and it's hard to believe they don't/won't/can't avoid those big-ass spinning blades. I guess it is possible that the spinning blades create a vacuum that pulls them in if they get close enough,but it SEEMS to me that birds would just naturally avoid something that big that is moving.

The end of that blade is going 220 ft per second. Not faster than a speeding bullet, but getting into "muzzle velocity" for an arrow.
I would think the air current around the blade might be enough to do some damage, too.

As for any bird that scavenges, there's plenty laying about to draw them in...

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.
