Reply #22: Bush overlaps them in his energy bill [View All]

[bigtree]

Bush insists that the next generation of nuclear weaponry be included along with your supposedly benign nuclear ambitions.

Please read the bill

Bush has inserted proposals which may not be dangerous alongside a mad escalation of the nation's nuclear arsenal.

These "non-explosive nuclear power sources" depend on nuclear fuel from some source. You can't pretend that the production of the fuel is benign. Recycling the fuel invites more proliferation.

I don't have to be an expert to see that Bush is hiding his new nuclear weaponry behind projects that may be supportable.

By the way uranium is evil. Keep it out of my rivers, lakes and streams. Protect the workers who handle it. Give them and others in the community the right to sue the companies who use it for abuses.

Don't divert scarce tax dollars for nuclear space boondoggles. It just gives the industry free reign to compound the waste, and madness.
