Republicans also reject green energy

Lee S. Gliddon Jr., in his Monday letter to the editor, put the blame for high energy costs on the Democrats. In particular, he blamed the Democrats for refusing to allow offshore drilling and wind farms off the coast of New England.

But the governors of the two states who fought offshore drilling, Florida and California, are Republicans, not Democrats. The previous Florida governor was the president’s brother, and he opposed offshore drilling.

And the governor of Massachusetts who opposed wind farms off the coast was Mitt Romney.
