When NJ governor Chris Christie made a big state of emergency announcement last week, one of the first things he said was that he was ordering the casinos to close. Never heard him say a word about the nuke plants. Now if Christie had ordered the donut shops closed, then we would have known for sure that he was taking Sandy seriously.
And regarding the earthquake that shook northern New Jersey yesterday morning, well, it was just Christie jumping up and down in frustration.

Just how many tens of thousands of people take weekend junkets to nuke plants rather than casinos?
Can you understand why Christie would want to keep people away from the affected coastal areas?
Can you understand why a decision to shut down the nuke plants should be left to the professionals who run them, rather than some random politician?

NPPs are heavily regulated by the NRC. Every potentially affected NPP had at least one NRC regulator on site.

ReplyDeleteThe Governor is a man of parts unrivaled since the good and great President Taft,
Split off a whole clone and there's still be enough left to abstracta couple of Bloombergs and a Hillary.
Well, it seems that Obama well and truly whipped Romney's arse.
ReplyDeleteI wonder where the GOP will go to from here?
