Nuclear energy is actually pretty safe, minus the tiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiny risk of Chernobyl #2

He gets a good mark for his alternative energy sources......IF he follows through with the funding!!!

I think that's fair to say. With how many nukular reactors there are around the world, how many have had issues?

Yeah? With the likes of Alito on the court?

They usually don't overturn fairly recent precedent, and I don't think the conservatives will support expanding the power of the executive.

I disagree - the main reason for opposing Alito was his deference to executive power. Although his position might change if a Democrat president were exceeding his power.

If you can cut your consumption of oil significantly enough that you can supply yourself without relying on unstable regions, that's good enough for me!

So we're going to increase American competitiveness while simultaneously cutting tens of billions of funding for higher education?

Rrrrrrright.

There are fewer abortions because people are being educated about contraceptives, nucka.

So, let's keep abortion LEGAL people! (oh wait...)

Welfare cases have dropped - is that because of the budget cuts?
