Try not confuse Nuclear Weapons Program cleanup (government created problem) with commercial nuclear power long term waste storage. Two different things. Oh that right you purposely confusing the issue. To make a political point, I suppose.

Thank you Obama and Reid for stopping completion of Yucca mountain after we spent 10 billion to have a nuclear waste depository there.

See my post #6. When the bomb went off our door rattled, and a drop of water fell into a pool in the Caverns.

The world did NOT end.

On the other hand, several years later, when an ICBM missile silo north or Roswell blew up, one of my co workers in Tulsa had worked on that project and was interrogated three-ways-from-Sunday about the blast by the FBI.

Time to open up the Yucca Mountain radioactive waste depository! It was constructed specifically for such use and Harry Reid will be gone soon.
