Beware Big Wind (sarcasm)

This is an ad that popped for me on YouTube yesterday that I mentioned in another post. Apparently they are making the argument that MN "politicians" (Democrats) are in the pocket of "Big Windpower". Lots of misleading crap in there.

I especially liked the chart that tried to suggest an increase in use of wind power caused a lower decrease in CO2 emissions, like there isn't anything else that affects CO2 emissions (like a stronger economy), presuming their numbers are even legitimate. Someone will have to explain to me how a wind turbine causes an increase in CO2 emissions.
