Former Maryland Gov. Martin O’Malley called global warming an excellent business opportunity and doubled down on creating a “100 percent clean electric grid by 2050” at Sunday night’s Democratic debate.
The presidential hopeful wrote an editorial in June saying if he becomes president in 2016, he will use his executive power to transition the country to renewable energy.
“I believe, within 35 years, our country can, and should, be 100% powered by clean energy, supported by millions of new jobs. To reach this goal we must accelerate that transition starting now,” O’Malley wrote.

Alas, I thought that was the whole point of the Global Warming myth... all the potential profits!
Solyndra, Mr. O'Malley.
Now go away.
Who actually cares what he has to say?
He is so Stupid
Doesn't he know each green job cost $1 million dollars???
Raise taxes to create green industry subsidies.
Hand out subsidies with zero accountability and no plan for repayment.
Money disappears.
"Green" project fails.
Where have I seen this before?
That's right a handful of people make all the money while the rest pay for it.
We see "green" failures all the time. It's now at our back door with the 150MW solar project being built in Somerset County. "Free money" seems to disappear because no body is accountable. I wonder how much Somerset officials and their families are collecting from this one while nearby property owners pay the price.
What a Tool !!!!!!'!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Pay the sales tax on the furniture you bought from the State and WE won't have to pay as much.
I am really enjoying everyone's comments here ! Agreed on all accounts. Funny how the truth pops out when Martin least expects it. "A great business opportunity" sums it all up entirely from all of these like minded kooks. Just one "real" question about this great opportunity..... since when did political partisanship meet environmentalism? Sadly, you all can look to the wise words of a native American Indian for the answer.
By our standards he would have been deemed illiterate at the time of his statement, "Man did not weave the web of life, he is merely a strand in it. What he does to the web, he does to himself." -- Two Moons Cheyenne Chief
Why does he keep talking. It hurts my ears.
James Mathias is next in line for green freebies selling out his own precious beachfront for junk turbines.
There is something really really wrong with this guy
4:41,if you were a developer you would understand the link between politicians and environmentalists, the rules and regulations they put on our land so only the ones who can pay to play develop.
Omallet mad a bunch of money from the Solyndra deal! That's why he's for this crap!
If he had "executive orders"at his dispatch, we'd be in tax hell as a nation!
I don't know if any of you watched 60 minutes last Sunday but they were talking to a guy who ran the company that developed the hardware and brain of these windmills. They partnered with a company from China to build the fiberglass body of the windmill and the blades. The Chinese company paid an employee off to steal the hardware and software files. The Obama administration bought these windmills from the Chinese company with the stolen "brains" for a green energy project. American company will probably go under.
Most of the components are made overseas and that's is where the bulk of our taxpayer dollars go farther destabilizing our economy.
