Another win at the buzzer against deniers

update Kansas: ALEC, Grover Norquist, Heatland, the Kochs, Coal and Gas, we fought them to a draw again.  A temporary victory perhaps, but we won, they lost.
These pricks offered a ready to vote law to make it less attractive to build new wind energy farms.  With money, and lies, they fed gullible legislators, and GOP sheep, the false idea rates would jump $640 or more.  The most recently installed wind farms are actually lower than conventional sources.  More wind will instead moderate, perhaps lower our rates, and these numbers came right off the states own records from the corporation commission and rate commissions filings.  Boy nothing gets a state senator pissed off faster than when I set in his office and showed him the numbers,  suddenly the argument was government telling the industry what to do and we should let the market decide.  Fine I said, with these numbers the market will build more wind, it's cheapest, as long as you don't pass this law which will make it less likely.  Of course he and I both know that is it's purpose, to stall, give coal another decade.  Instead we stalled them when by all count they had the votes this time, another win at the buzzer.

3 weeks ago farmers, industry, wind operators, treehuggers, jerks like me, rallied and the senate defeated it, lower house pulled it, passed a rule that no discussion of climate change or global warming could occur during new hearings and a rewrite.  Yesterday the house committee, in a room full of movie cameras and interested parties, and a shower of emails and calls, tabled it.  Most likely it's dead, but we are posting a death bed watch just in case.  Schwartzenager and some documentary makers came in to record the fight for a movie on global warming.
