Letter: Miss Nevada tells it like it is

Kudos to Miss Nevada for expressing a "nonpolitical" answer to the unfair question on Yucca Mountain. Regardless of the pandering and self-interest of our many local politicians, I'm tired of them speaking for all of us on this issue.

From Gov. Kenny Guinn to good old boy Sen. Harry Reid, they completely ignore the fact that they've been a part of the whole issue from the beginning and haven't supported any alternative. You don't spend the funds from users and federal funds (tax dollars) for this period of time and then politically decide it's a bad idea.
