Ablogination

I’ll keep this brief due to the fact that I just scored a sack of stinky, sticky, stony, BUDS and I don’t want to waste too much time commenting on vermin while there’s tree to trim…

T. Boone Pickens is a piece of shit. But you knew that, didn’t you? For those who didn’t I’ll illustrate once again that my comments characterizing Pickens as excrement are spot on.

In an article from the Washington Post, we find that Pickens is scrapping his Mean Green Wind Machine plans for all sorts of lame reasons that prove conclusively that Pickens is the kind of Scum that will never do anything unless he makes millions from it.

From the WAPO:

Pickens Calls Off Plans For Vast Texas Wind Farm

T. Boone Pickens has temporarily shelved plans to build the world’s biggest wind farm in the Texas Panhandle because of tight credit markets and low natural gas prices, and his company Mesa Power is looking for other projects that could use the $2 billion worth of wind turbines already on order.

Pickens unveiled plans in 2007 for the 4,000-megawatt wind farm – big enough to power 1.3 million homes – at a projected cost of $10 billion. In May 2008, Pickens ordered 667 wind turbines from General Electric for the first of four project phases. Mesa is scheduled to begin taking delivery in 2011.

The project was a symbol of the oilman’s commitment to his high-profile campaign to slash the nation’s dependence on foreign oil with a combination of wind power and the use of natural gas in vehicles.

“Boone still remains committed and focused on developing wind energy in the United States,” said Jay Rosser, a spokesman for Pickens’s BP Capital Management. “The timing is not as aggressive as he originally outlined because of the collapse of the capital markets and because of the steep downturn of natural gas prices.” (Many utilities are choosing natural gas to generate electricity.)

Absolute bullshit.

In other words, Pickens no longer stands to make a billion on the project so it’s off.

This man is a joke. He talked all that crap while Repigs were running for office and now it’s no longer valuable as a project because McBush lost and can’t give him untold tax dollars to line his pockets with. Thought you were going to a big Halliburton style payday at the taxpayer’s expense did you, T?
The “Pickens Plan", his plan to Pickens the taxpayer’s pockets, was launched in July 2008.
The Scum lost. So what does Pickens do? He drops his sudden love for environment and clean air and the people of this country.
Imagine, to have all that wealth and still be a transparent, self-serving dirtbag.

This latest abandonment of duty to country (much like Palin quitting) is what we as a nation have come to expect from the Right Wing Fringe.

And of course, let’s not forget that T. Boone Pickens was the sack of horse turds that bankrolled the Swift Boat Cowards for Lies that unsuccessfully tried to smear John Kerry’s military record during the 2004 Presidential elections.
Pickens later ate his words. Better yet, Kerry folded them up and shoved them up Pickens’ yellow Texas ass.

Just another shining example of the fact that Republicans care for only two things. Money and money.

Build a wind tower, T. Then promptly climb to the top and jump if you would be so kind.

Here’s a vid from FUX News where Pickens get’s caught in his lies and his fellow son-of-a-jackal, Sean Hannity, tries to save him.

T. Boone Pickens. The environmentalist.

What a fucking snail.
