CapeCodToday is reporting that high placed advisor’s in the McCain campaign were involved in trying to stop the Cape Wind renewable energy project.
Charlie Black, Senior Political Adviser to McCain: Senate lobbying disclosure documents reveal that lobbying firm BKSH
& Associates was retained in January 2008 by the Alliance to
Protect Nantucket Sound to “Defeat the proposal for 130 wind turbinesâ€

Sound from 2003 to 2005 to lobby against Cape Wind. The Loeffler Group

This after yet another of his advisor’s was forced to quit after it came out that he had been working FOR the government of Myanmar, and his other adviser from his ties to the Saudi government. It would seem to me that McCain is shaping up to be a puppet character that is being advised by a whole series of high priced power brokers for a variety of shady organizations and governments. Bush 2.0.
I can’t tell you who to vote for in the upcoming presidential election, but I can tell you that if you are thinking about John McCain because you for some misguided reason think he is any different than Bush, or any other republican, think again. This man has surrounded himself with the the dirtiest of dirty tricksters, people who’s only job is to shill for dictators and big carbon. Don’t be fooled, John McCain is NO maverick. In fact it is shameful that anyone would have every applied such a label to him.
(Ironic…)
