This admin is proposing to put all our plutonium into one facility -- and guard it on the cheap!

That is just one thing wrong with the whole deal....The whole thing stinks..

That's part of the reason they're such a disaster. If you pay for cheap you get cheap. A simple rule of life.

they've spared no expense in giving Halliburton and KBR huge, fat, no-bid contracts. And they still got cheap. Maybe that old saw should be amended to, "if you buy cheap or from a politically connected company, you get cheap". The bush administration hasn't skimped when it comes to fat, no-bid contracts with their political cronies.

Thank you for the heads up though... I missed this and it IS very important.

Please be careful; I know you meant well though.

Although I realize that "listening" and reading comprehension can occasionally be a problem it didn't occur to me that someone might think that this thread was locked from just my wording since there's no other evidence of that and I'm not a Mod. :(

::sigh:: Normally I'm very careful in how I word things but apparently I need to try and remember to finish my coffee and waking up process before posting here.
:hangover:

I'm truly sorry if you felt that I had messed things up and/or stepped on your toes... it certainly was not intended. :blush:

...and thank you for your considerate thoughts. :)

because everything the Bush Administration touches turns to shit.

I have some clear ideas, but want to hear others.

Strange How This Generation Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb

by Ron Fullwood

April 6, 2006 {snips} -- At the end of the decade support for nuclear energy was on the decline because of waste and safety issues and disarmament. Right before Bush II got in office, the industry, still fat from clean-up money sought to bolster their flagging industry. (INEEL gets 70% of their funding for waste disposal) Waste storage had become so controversial that it had soured the public to the idea of more nukes and more nuke plants. (Yucca Mountain, storage sites in New Mexico, transportation, safety issues, etc.).

So, they began promoting the view that the 'spent' nuclear fuel from decommissioned weapons and nuclear power plants could be broken down and reconstituted for weapons (depleted uranium) and a new generation of nuclear plants which would accommodate (recycle) and use the waste instead of immobilizing it in glass and storing it.

The industry makes the dubious claim that the recycled waste keeps it out of the hands of terrorists and makes proliferation more difficult. It will more likely disperse the waste and create more opportunity for abuse or mishap. But, they are pressing on, perhaps emboldened by the lack of effective opposition, or maybe it's just the last gasp of a fracturing plutocracy as they rape the Treasury to benefit their military industry benafactors.

The reinvention of our nukes is already well underway; and like every aspect of this admin -- secrecy prevails. Imagine the boon to the (now global) military/industrial complex!

Fortunately -- this admin bungles secrecy, along with many other things.
