A Kennedy is on the board of the Chicago Climate Exchange

Do you see that graphic? It comes from the Chicago Climate Exchange's web site. Yes, those are photoshopped windmills. The Chicago Climate Exchange is one of those carbon-offset groups where supposedly, and I say supposedly, the CCX can "offset" their greenhouse gas emissions by allowing member firms that have achieved lowered their emissions to sell credits to businesses that haven't decreased them. Or something like that. They plant some trees, too, and the CCX is of course a supporter of renewable energy.

Dan Curry of Reverse Spin e-mailed me this bit of information after he read my post about the opposition from Sen. Ted Kennedy and the Kennedy family's house environmentalist, Robert F. Kennedy Jr., to the proposed Cape Wind project in Nantucket Sound near the Kennedy family's famed compound at Hyannis Port.

Cape Wind, as you probably guessed, is a wind farm.

Meanwhile in Chicago, as Curry discovered, Joseph Kennedy II, Robert's brother, sits on the advisory board of the Chicago Climate Exchange. Chicago's Mayor Richard M. Daley is the honorary chairman of that board, former WBBM-TV anchorman sits along Kennedy as another advisory board member.

This Kennedy is the former congressman who forced his ex-wife--she says--to accept an annulment so Joe II could remarry in the Catholic Church.

A just God would tattoo "Phony" on the forehead of every member of the Kennedy family.

As for wind mills, the Kennedys are for them. But they want the wind farms where you and I live, not where they live.
