that gave a price on the pending recession in America...that buy-in/bet was larger than Obama, or Clinton becoming pres...Obama may well be the pres, but it won't be because of that site, it'll be because of his backers such as the nuclear industry:
THE SPIN:
Clinton radio ad in Nevada: "The Las Vegas Review-Journal said Obama was 'hip deep in financial ties' to one of America's biggest Yucca Mountain promoters — nuclear giant Exelon."
THE FACTS: Indeed, Illinois' nuclear power industry, which has thousands of tons of waste awaiting the opening of Yucca Mountain, has backed the Illinois senator. Executives and employees of Exelon Corp., the Chicago-based energy giant and nuclear plant operator, have contributed more than $200,000 to Obama campaigns since 2004, according to PoliticalMoneyLine.com.
But the candidate who is attacking a rival for taking such money has enjoyed similar largesse.
Clinton has accepted thousands of dollars in contributions from the nuclear industry, including nearly $80,000 in this election from employees and a political action committee of NRG Energy Inc. That company is the first to file an application for a new nuclear power plant in the U.S. since before the Three Mile Island accident. http://ap.google.com/article/ALeqM5hULHaG6hV5VmzJbGe5NZZL10K-xwD8U8H84O3When I go gambling, I go to Reno or Win-River...that site is stupid. It's barely entertainment. Believe in the tooth fairy if you must; I stopped believing when my mother threw my Daddy out of the house and then had my dog he gave me for my birthday destroyed.
Good luck with that "LOL" thing, there'll be plenty of time for that as well :rofl:
