John McCain on coal, (not so) clean coal, and nuclear

Fascinating. After a feeble statement against mountain top removal (not even as strong as the one Obama made years ago), McCain comes out strongly in favor of nuclear and the non-existent clean coal technology.

I'm also confused... are coal companies doing much better today than the used to? Perhaps in making profits they are. When it comes to protecting the environment... not so much.

John McCain still doesn't say where he's going to store all that new nuclear power plan waste he wants to create. Tell him its not welcome in West Virginia.

Sign the petition: Tell John McCain, No Nuclear Waste In Old Coal Mines!

McCain's new statement (4.00 / 1)
McCain's new statement on MTR is stronger than this one - so of course the campaign immediately tried to disown it.

So if he denies wanting to bury nuclear waste in our old coal mines, is his campaign going to deny that too? Why should we believe them.

When a man embarks upon a crime, he is morally guilty of any other crime which may spring from it. Sherlock Holmes.
