twitterLetter: Abraham’s intelligence, motives suspect
Wednesday, Jan. 16, 2002 | 8:51 a.m.
So our energy secretary, Spencer Abraham, recommends Yucca Mountain as the place to be the recipient of our nation's nuclear waste. Not only do I disagree, I also question his intelligence and his motives. I'm stunned by the mere thought of transporting nuclear waste in the first place.
Our energy secretary apparently finds this particular mountain capable of safely storing lethal material that will arrive from various sites via our nation's roads. Isn't anyone paying attention to all the ongoing, incomplete, conflicting reports pertaining to just about every phase of having Yucca Mountain as a nuclear repository? How can a valid decision be made?
And how many more billions are going to be poured into this hole before common sense, backed by irrefutable statistics and facts, puts an end to this ludicrous plan once and for all!
By the way, where does politician Spencer Abraham hang his hat when he's not jetting in and out of Las Vegas and Washington?
