Good read, good points...too bad The Regime and the rest of the Left won't reach the same conclusions!

 

[trapeze]

It doesn't fit the narrative.

The narrative is that technology in general and nuclear technology in particular are bad. So they take any opportunity to move the narrative along regardless of how far from the truth they have to go.

The MFM has lost all of their credibility in order to advance the liberal agenda.

And they appear not to care.

John Edwards phrase "there are two Americas", was correct.  If they were more geographically aligned D.C. would be more inclined to listen.



Not withstanding, I think we are more geographically aligned than most; we have them surrounded. Leadership and chain of authority have not evolved, that's all. Taking back power requires asymmetrical action; defeat them before the primary. If they pick the candidates in the primary we lose.

Yes one that is dumber than dogsh*t and one that is plain stupid. It's like watching The Three Stooges, you just know something will go wrong. With the media, you just kow the reporting of such things will be heavily slanted to the thinking of "yes, they deserved it because they were dabbling into something that was dangerous." Of course they continue to fly, drive, and ride elevators, trains and well, breath.

Unfortuantely, we're all going to be lumped together by future generations that regard this period in history as "The era of man caused ignorance". Again I reiterate, we're screwed!

I think nucular power should be our "Øbamcare" when we regain power. Look the lefties right in the eye and say "I don't give a tinker's damn if you like it or not. Sit down, shut up, and do what you're told". (not unlike what they said to us).

Nucular power is good for you!

And we have to make sure we pronounce it "nucular" because it really pisses them off.

What's the difference. most don't or can't understand the concepts of the technology to begin with. Most are still under the delusion that reactors are in fact in danger at all times of uncontrollable chain reaction akin to that of a fission bomb.

I would say to them that if they want to live under a rock without the benefits of the power provided to the grid and they refuse to ue hydrocarbon based fuels then they really need to move t the jungles of Africa or mountains of Afghanistan to eak out their existance.

So I don't know if any of y'all caught chuckie's latest spew: Krauthammer: "Nuclear Energy Is Dead' After Japanese Crisis"  http://newsbusters.org/blogs/noel-sheppard/2011/03/20/charles-krauthammer-after-japanese-crisis-nuclear-power-america-dead


(that felt good - I think I'll do it again)     

OK, I'm better now.

As the Left and their media minions love citing conservatives when one of them says something they agree with, it seems a metaphysical certitude Krauthammer's comments will make the rounds in the coming days.

...

The Left and their press are already opposed to coal due to the dreaded carbon dioxide. Oil is hated for similar reasons and is already over $100 a barrel.

Yes, as a young student I would ponder what a thrill living in the Dark Ages would have been.  You know, walking along the boardwalk as someone from the third floor tosses the night pot contents out the window.  It's really going to be something else.

 Good God! I'll put a gun to my own head before I go there again.

By the way, that's how high heels were invented. They weren't originally for fashion.

[Sectionhand]

I'm against nuclear from the standpoint that I've seen some of the electric bills from companies powered by nuclear . It's enough to take your breath away ... your wallet too .
