From ‘Cap and Trade’ to ‘Smoke and Mirrors’ — Obama’s Radioactive Feint to the Right

James Hudnall "...Except nuclear power plants are already safe and sound in the US and have been for over 50 years. The 104 nuclear reactors in operation in 31 states provide only 20 percent of the nation’s electricity. But they are responsible for 70 percent of the power from pollution-free sources, including wind, solar and hydroelectric dams. Nuclear power is only eclipsed by fossil fuels as a source of power as this chart reveals. But unlike fossil fuels, it’s a clean source of energy. And we’re evolving the technology to better and even safer versions."
