NBC: Hey, weak jobs growth beyond is government’s control!* Of course, if jobs growth were strong, it would all be because of the magnificent gubbermint efforts on the economy led by President Vacant Chair. NBC = Nothing But Cronies. (*When a false Democrat god NBC wishes to suck up to is in office.)

Mr. President? It's NBC. Just checking in to see if you have any water for us to carry today.
I can't believe this crap! The Lame Stream Media has out done itself on this one.
Weak job growth? Where should I start? How about EPA regulations. Federal, state and local regulations. Banning drilling for oil both offshore and on land. Refusing to permit building new pipelines and oil refineries. Refusing to allow new nuclear power generating plants to be built. Asinine restrictions on coal fired generating plants which led to more coal mines being shut down. Did I mention the jack-booted thugs at the EPA?
The list goes on and on. Gooberment is to blame for slow job growth and prosperity in our country and has been for years.
There were nuclear plants approved a few months back.. Georgia I'm thinkin
I for one am waiting on fusion out of NIF
Look at how badly we have screwed up other ides for alternate energy. Only this one will be around for some 40.000 years if there is a screw up. And that's only for half of it! The given that people make mistakes and that there ar accidents leads me to feel nuclear is not ourbest option.
Fission reactor failsafes have gotten better in the last few decades. Can't say foolproof but pretty darn near. Problem now is natural gas is so cheap it's hard to gather investors for nuclear. Disclosure: I own URA which I'd like to see go up in the next eleventy years
In the case of nuclear, "foolproof" (or Union idiot proof) is the only acceptable standard. The effects of a screw up are too severe and WAY to long lasting to mess about!
True.. but we got like a hundred reactors online.. with a little hiccup at Three Mile Island. Our record's pretty good. Maybe we can take cue from Navy and park them offshore
And destroiy the ocean when they collapse? No, we are just not ready for nuclear. Too many issues and npot enough answers to "what if." Simply too dangerous in the long run. In the future? Maybe, but not now.
I completely respect your desire for good stewardship of the planet. For example, I do not think it's worth any amount of coal profits to level entire mountain tops. But in the balance of energy security and environment, I think fission is a win, and fusion is such a big prize it's worth 12 figures of new debt
As a rule of thumb (without hurting myself with too much heavy research), I always figured if nuclear was so dangerous wouldn't the French have screwed up big-time by now?
Hey look! Government Cartoons!.AAh that takes me back

Can't say I have EVER seen such a thing. What did they call it in CHINA SYNDROME? Sunshine rays for radiation?
No bad news is their fault? Why they are certainly immature children, living in a fantasy world where they are in charge of all and everything works all the time. If facts are different, make up a fantasy where they are right and heros all the time. Now, if it is really adults doing this it just pathetic.
So.......if the poor economy is beyond government's control...why is every one of Obama's solutions based on more government? That aside - it was blatantly obvious during Obama's DNC speech he's has nothing left. He looked old, tired, limp, warn out and impotent. Pathetic - completely pathetic.
Things were supposed to be smoother than this. No one warned him there is actual WORK to be done as President, unlike "associate law professor" and "community organizer." You can't just delegate everything to the lemmings. Well, you CAN. But it will come back to bite you in the ass.

HA! Exactly.
Looks like MSPMS built another line of bullshit for "Dear Leader"
Oh, yeah? Just watch as Ben Dover, the chief administrator of Obamacare, continues to slow the economy if the amateur-in-chief isn't kicked to the curb this November.
