Weird attack post related to Daily KOS claims about Bernie and Jane.

[Ford_Prefect]

I'm having a hard time teasing out the facts and details on this one: Claims that Jane Sanders is profiting from Sierra Blanca oversight board and that Bernie was part of the deal to put Vermont nuclear waste near a low income Latino West Texas neighborhood.

The Hillary group is getting all kinds of righteous over this claiming Bernie is a sham. http://www.democraticunderground.com/1107124800

I am not stirring the pot here. I believe in Bernie. But this is a bit strange to read even if it is from KOS.

Does anyone have a better take on it, please?

P.S. The Hillary group is all kinds of righteous every day.

9. Safe radioactive storage.

Please read my reply #22 for a very simple explanation.

There are nuclear experts available to fully explain the storage of mass and energy of radioactive sources. There is plenty of information in a chapter on Nuclear Chemistry in any high school chemistry book. Hopefully some will go to the library to read up before making statements that are not verbal.

3. Everything Hillary says is a lie. Everything!

4. Keep your eyes on the prize

and ignore the HC group. I have that group in the trash and many of her supporters out of my consciousness. I may take them out of jail once the election is over.

5. It was referred to in a counter post to remarks I made yesterday.

I had pointed out that Wellstone would spin in his grave to see the poster, a self proclaimed Wellstone progressive, supporting the ultimate war hawk.

6. Everywhere you turn she spews some sort of crap out of her mouth

On Sunday or Monday some story was posted here claiming, quote, "I've always been against (SHAFTA) NAFTA". Now how ignorant a statement is that? For it before she was against it? Give me a freakin break.

And Daily KOS is a Killary web site. Dropped my name from their e-mails several weeks ago. It's just plain "group speak". Just like in the movie THX1138.

7. fake Sanders posters may actally be paid sock puppets sometimes

working for the other side or known funders of huge armies of fake posters such as the ******** industry

present company excepted of course.

8. 80% of the low-level waste *originated* in Texas, and the Sierra Blanca repository was never built.

The area in Texas was chosen for environmental reasons concerning groundwater levels and geology. States shared repositories (Vermont's share of the repository was about 10%).

10. Sierra Blanca was already storing New York's toxic sludge

To me, it makes more sense to go ahead and use an area that's already tainted than to foul a new pristine area. They pick areas that are sparsely populated and accessible by road and rail. The population density on the east coast pretty much rules out local storage. So they go out to the arid, desolate west. And they PAY FOR IT. My guess is that someone in Texas' state government actively went after this stuff.
