Do you think you could ever try and make any kind of point without parroting hannity and pointing fingers?

I like Nuclear power as well, but don't act as if it's the holy grail of energy.

Hey TekDragon, you think your town would vote for a nuclear power plant right next to your towns schools and water supply?

I have no idea where you get the idea that the GOP has been going for more nuclear plants and the Dems have been filibustering on that point or something....

No, likely not. After decades of ignorant liberals parading around making it sound like Nuclear Plants are open systems spewing radiation everywhere - I doubt many people have a favorable opinion of them.

However, with more and more people getting educated in basic physics in highschool, which includes a basic coverage of nuclear power exploitation, the damage done by the left is finally receeding.

Eventually people will realize that US nuclear power plants produce absolutely zero air borne emissions and their only pollutant is a miniscule amount of solid source waste that is easily contained and stored and can later be used in an additional process that will extract more energy from it, reducing it's lifespan from thousands of years to a fraction of that.

I think on a personal level Bush really is a deeply compassionate person who cares about the humans who have to live in North Korea and Iraq.

I support the Energy Act of 2005, which devotes about 5 billion a year to alt. energy research.

Thats all I can think of.

Thanks. Yeah I'm from OT and I'm new there too so you probably don't recognize me.

I like Bush's immigration policy too.
