Investing in Clean, Safe Nuclear Energy
February 18th, 2010 by
President Obama announces more than billion in loan guarantees for two new nuclear reactors as part of the Administration’s commitment to providing clean energy and creating new jobs.

take your partisan hackery and shove it! Everyone knows the two parties are controlled by the same puppetmasters.
The question most people make is do I vote for idiot #1 or #2… it’s a non issue. We are controlled by corporate elitists.
Please get a clue soon? This country is about to be collapsed and put into turmoil by these fuckers. I’m not just talking about Obama; Bush was also their porch-monkey enforcer from 2000-2008.
Become a real human, identify the slavers, defeat them.

I would be more concerned about our military using depleted uranium in their bullets!! They are used in proving grounds in the US as well as against unarmored targets in Iraq/Afgahnistan!!!!
You people really need perspective. Once this radioactive round strikes a target, it’s aerosol’d and put in the atmosphere! There has been some of this shit found in the atmosphere of Europe.
But all you monkeys would rather listen to this meat popsicle spit out feel good statements than view reality.

I wouldn’t expect an Obama cultist to pursue claims for themselves. So, sure I can oblige the location of my information. From: greenberkshires(.)org/wind_power_postings/wind_a_cost_benefit.html
40mil to power 9000 home/yr
Wind energy is a boondoggle hyped up as progress. I’m all about conservation, but wind power is not effective when it’s centrally implemented. It’s better to utilize small scale wind. Fact.
Facts like Phil Jones admitting that there has been no warming in 15 years?

Wow – bravo – the words are clear, no one could say it better.
The distress and misery of those affected can not be described.
All this is taken from a caste in the purchase, the public knowingly misinformed.
Only in recent years, we learn about the Internet and Youtube, as the reality actually looks like. Because many details have been suppressed in the media.
The facts about misconceptions about the nuclear power is overwhelming!

WRONG, WRONG, WRONG!
Nuclear “energy” has never been clearn. It has never been safe. It has never been anything but an infinitely expensive environmental disaster.
And it never will be.
Oil, Coal, and Nuclear are the old dirty forms of energy.
We need CLEAN energy for the 21st century.
Nuclear is just about as dirty as you can get.
Chernobyl still has not been properly cleaned up because too many brave people have died trying to close it.

Wind does not take more energy to manufacture than it puts out… where did you get that from?
maybe you should get “perspective” on some facts.
Obviously Wind energy is largely impacted by location that it is on. Maybe you saw a poll with some fudged numbers based only on low wind locations.
Otherwise I am forced to conclude you are simply talking out your ass.

Yes, the 3rd Generation is the latest. It is built in several e.g. in Finland, but the dates and costs can not be met. Perhaps some information are non-reliable?
February 18th, 2010 at 3:18 pm
I hope that the new power plants that you want to build Mr, President are the EPR nuclear reactor new Framatome ANP reactor design 3rd generation power plants modern up to date technology and not the old 70’s design.

This is a great move for the US! Need to grow more “homegrown” energy options here in the US, reducing our dependence on foreign oil and carbon-based fuel as well. This will be a stepping stone for an electric/hydrogen based vehicle/home fuel infrastructure. Let’s reduce pollution and stop sending money to the Middle East! Solar/nuclear/wind/hydrogen will make this happen!
February 18th, 2010 at 3:18 pm
President Obama is right about expanding nuclear power. We need more nuclear, more use of our nation’s vast supply of natural gas, more solar, more wind, more biofuels and more offshore drilling. There is no reason that the U.S. cannot attain energy independence.

it’s a desperate way to create new jobs & a step backward in time energetically speaking…

republicants are mad because they “CAN’T” take the credit of what he is doing,thats why they won’t help him do what he have to do for this country to succeed.
February 18th, 2010 at 3:18 pm
if he was white this wouldn’t be a problem,so stop fucking crying.oh we all have to die someday
February 18th, 2010 at 3:18 pm
you people are so full of shit,ya’ll keep letting these republicants brain wash ya’ll dumbasses.

I should mention – these short-term electricity price increase will take place in Germany where I live/ Chancellor Merkel has achieved its goal with the sup-g of energy , and some others.
additional, the complex of CERN LHC is repaired and equipped with much stronger magnets – some were penetrated 2008 by the energy beam.
He will soon be a new trial started and many ppl fear the worst.
Of course, each country has its own reasons for the nuclear plants, but they overlap so remarkable.

It is about 9 trillion dollars, and that is a CRITICAL estimate. Yes, our financial system sucks but you pulled the number 100 trillion out of your ass.
February 18th, 2010 at 3:18 pm
That was ONE mess up. As a result, a large radius of land is heavily irradiated and millions of people still suffer from it’s effects. Accidents happen, so I hope an accident means a crack in a solar panel or a quick hydrogen combustion rather than an EXTREMELY dirty explosion followed by fallout greater than that of Hiroshima.

9 billion dollars, the usa has no money- it is insolvent. The debt is almost a 100 trillion dollars. This he says is grand and important but seriously Americas financial system is terminally ill.

@CERNobyl2008 – You remember anything – No ?
We are talking only about “The Physicists” and politics !
The rest is easy – with France, Germany, Russia, England and the United States has assembled a coalition of interested parties in december 2009.
I am afraid it is not the interests of the citizen.
Oh, I almost forgot – today, an increase in electricity prices of at least six per cent was announced. Another price increase will take effect in May 2010 !
February 18th, 2010 at 3:18 pm
It can be better discussed when we know the background – the history!
In Switzerland, there is CERN/LHC the Large Hadron Collider. Germany and France are responsible in accordance with the European Union.
They try to recreate the Big Bang – they are failed in 2008 !!!
Then the Germans are the energy monopolies and France’s energy monopoly – they are cloth to cloth.
Then there is the German Chancellor Frau Merkel, She wants to be re-elected in 2009 with another coalition partner…

Your people will die from radiation?

We as Democrats are marching in a parade with people Harry Truman or even Jack Kennedy would not recognize – socialist (also know as progressives) who think that Western civilization began in 1969. Strangely, without meaning to, we the mainstream Democrats find ourselves representing this “socialist movement.” However, for the “socialist” within our Democratic Party, there is nothing so strange about it. Socialist have always sought to leverage corruption for the sake of power.

False promises from President Obama are not “Change We Can Believe In.”
President Obama diverted the legitimate anger and energy for real change and scuttled it under what has become known as the fraudulent tent of the Democratic Party. He led millions to the cliff, and they are now falling off in droves. Those who have not quite gotten to the edge now yell: “Wait! Give him time!”
February 18th, 2010 at 3:18 pm
President Obama has given our Democratic Party a terrible legacy that will live on for many years to come. He has shown those with any intelligence that anyone other than a corporate lobbyist should nevermore believe in a Democrat for any positive change. Our President Obama is clearly the false prophet of change. That is to say, except for given us a higher meaning of change in the form of gullibility accorded to Democratic Party demagoguery.

You are a fish… You are food…
Your argument is invalid.
