I thought no. Can't be right. So I did snopes. It IS a misquote, but not by much.

Quote: "Wind is God's way of balancing heat. Wind is the way you shift heat from areas where it's hotter to areas where it's cooler. That's what wind is. Wouldn't it be ironic if in the interest of global warming we mandated massive switches to energy, which is a finite resource, which slows the winds down, which causes the temperature to go up? Now, I'm not saying that's going to happen, Mr. Chairman, but that is definitely something on the massive scale. I mean, it does make some sense. You stop something, you can't transfer that heat, and the heat goes up. It's just something to think about."

So there you go. Stop building wind turbines, you might slow down the wind.

I... I... I don't even...

Fucking WHAT?! People voted for this guy?!

The guy is from Texas, a notorious low IQ State. The voters there will vote for a cow chip, as long as it's a white Repub cow chip.
