The Obama administration announced a proposal to grant 30-year permits for wind turbine facilities to kill bald and golden eagles, causing an uproar among environmentalist groups.

**SNIP**

The National Audubon Society, the Natural Resources Defense Council, the American Bird Conservancy, and the Conservation Law Center are some of the environmental organizations opposing the permits.

The National Audubon Society referred to the 30-year permit proposal as “a stunningly bad move.”

perhaps his imam told him that once we wipe out the Eagle...the Symbol of The Infidel....that his caliphate can begin?

But just let a little old lady pick up an eagle feather from the ground and see what happens.

Well, eagles shouldn’t either be wiped out or worshiped.

As long as there are enough of them to be able to afford to do this (and I’d still like to see eagle repellent measures used around these windmills if practicable) we shouldn’t be all uptight about eagle feathers either. (Actually the windmill kill ought to keep any eagle feather aficionado in eagle feathers up to their neck.)

Millions of taxpayer dollars were spent to save the eagles and now we’re going to allow them to be killed by the environmentalists’ goofy “Save da planet” reminders? (Windmills). That’s bull****!

Well part of it was lax oversight of government by “you and I.”

A constitution that starts with “We The People” is dangerous. If “We The People” get Sloppy (WHEN they do) then so will the corresponding government....

Doesn’t like the AMERICAN Bald Eagle.

Any surprise??? If it was called the Koranic North American Eagle, it would be a different story.

I feel the loss of these magnificent birds, and I would add Red-tailed Hawks to the list of impacted species that should be protected from permitted green avicide.

The National Audubon Society referred to the 30-year permit proposal as “a stunningly bad move.”

Marxists/progressives/Democrats never seem to understand that they really have no say, and they never actually had one.

(The term "useful" comes to mind.)

Maybe they should paint the blades orange to warn the eagles of danger.
