Peter DeFazio's Repub opponent Art Robinson: Nuclear waste best stored in foundation of homes

[stevedeshazer]

Rep. Peter DeFazio, D-Ore., has quite an opponent this November.

http://whoisartrobinson.defazioforcongress.org/2010/09/09/art-robinson-nuclear-waste-best-stored-foundation-/

"While ocean dispersal would have long ago turned the radioactive waste disposal issue into a non-problem had pseudo environmentalism not intervened, the best place for that waste is in the concrete foundations and insulation of homes and buildings. Suitably diluted, radioactive substances in our homes would provide a hermetic radiation dose and significantly prolong our lives."

:wow:

More wackiness here: http://whoisartrobinson.defazioforcongress.org/archive/

He's on the record...

-Wants to abolish public schools
-Public education is "child abuse" and should be abolished.
-Secondhand smoke warnings are an EPA power play
-Close all public schools, free market will provide better opportunity
-Doesn't like plans to reform Wall Street
-Social Security and other programs should be ended by attrition
-Renew Bush tax cuts and expand them
-Revoke all taxes for energy industry
-Nuclear waste best stored in foundation of homes
-People shouldn't complain about free trade agreements

Just a sampling.

1. Gives new meaning to the term "toxic mortgages"

:rofl:

2. Ok, starting with Art Robinson’s house and all of his relative's homes, and all repuke homes

The worst contamination needs to be stored under Dickhead Cheney's house.

3. We've gone over to

the Twilight Zone of politics. Where the hell are they finding these people?

4. Wow, that's a really good idea.

I'll go and do that right after I piss on this electric fence and stick my dick in a pencil sharpener, but before I powder myself with asbestos dust and stare into an electic arc welder for a couple of hours.

5. Well, we always knew they were out there.

6. A credit to DeFazio

No sane Republican would spend the effort or money to run against him.

7. And there are signs all over town

:crazy:

I think I'll reduce that into a flier and go visit some business owners. I can't believe the intelligent people who are backing this guy, and yes they are intelligent. I think they just don't know about him, or don't think anybody will have the guts to embarrass them to their face.

8. "Hermetic radiation dose" could mean an "occult and abstruse" radiation dose. Huh?

[TwilightGardener]

9. Oh, what the hell, let's add it to the radon and asbestos.

Might be some interesting synergy down there.
