Radioactive Plume to Hit U.S. On Friday (President will be in South America avoiding Plume) - Vanity

[Scythian]

One thing is for sure. The president of the U.S. will not perform his job, he will not gather the proper experts together to formulate a best guess on the radiation heading our way. And he will not hold a press conference.

Instead, he's heading down to South America, well out of the way of the radiation plume heading our way. If his wife and kids go with him, then you know it's going to be far worse than they are letting on.

Imagine the outrage if Bush were in office and he did not go back to DC when the US was under attack.

[Scythian]

Hmmm, I guess you have a point there ...

[tsowellfan]

President Obama said that the distance between the United States and Japan is so great that radiation could never make it to even Hawaii, let alone the continental US.

"Tall and tan and young and lovely the girl from Ipanema goes walking and..."

I say the military should not allow him back.

Yep, when Barry gets back from Rio he'll not only be saying, “uh, uh, uh, er, uh”, but a new one, “ooh, ah”

[Lazamataz]

YAY!

[bgill]

How can Moochelle possibly leave her garden at this time?!?

[Freddd]

I for one will be looking forward to the ads of Japan’s beaches getting hit with radiation and the West Coast of the U.S.- and Obama on the beach in Rio...

Do you have a map of said plume heading our way?

Link?

Whom to blame for the bloomin’ plume of doom which looms in the room?

Do you have a map of said plume heading our way?

There is in fact an animation of the plume heading our way, it ain't pretty.

From your link:

The forecast does not show actual levels of radiation...at worst, would have extremely minor health consequences

Japan ain't the only place experiencing meltdowns, we've been getting a few on FR as of late as well.

The text from the NYSLIMES graphic link you posted:

A forecast by the Comprehensive Nuclear Test Ban Treaty Organization shows how weather patterns this week might disperse radiation from a continuous source in Fukushima, Japan. The forecast does not show actual levels of radiation, but it does allow the organization to estimate when different monitoring stations, marked with small dots, might be able to detect extremely low levels of radiation. Health and nuclear experts emphasize that any plume will be diluted as it travels and, at worst, would have extremely minor health consequences in the United States.

UGH!

Can someon please dump some thorazine in the water supply?

Is that Valerie Plume?

[massgopguy]

Ah, a “computer model”.

[swarthyguy]

There’s some bad joke here about Valerie Plame and radioactive plumes, but I can’t come up with it.

It would be really interesting to see something that mapped the radiation from all the land, sea and atmospheric tests conducted, hundreds and hundreds, by the US, USSR, England, France and China.

That would be something to freak out about.

Run all about, wave your arms, scream and shout. Its always amusing to watch how easily people can be manipulated by the anti-nuclear lefties.
