John McCain: Four Score and Blah, Blah, Blah
From Indecision 2008…
Over the weekend, John McCain drew laughter and applause for mocking Barack Obama's position on nuclear energy…
"We talk about offshore drilling and he said he would quote, consider, offshore drilling. We talked about nuclear power, well it has to be safe, environment, blah, blah, blah."
Here's you: That's a puzzlingly reckless and flippant thing to say.
After all, we certainly want to explore as many alternative energy
sources as possible, but who doesn't favor responsibility and safety
when dealing with anything, let alone something as unstable and
potentially dangerous as nuclear power. Does John McCain want us to
plug our refrigerators directly into radioactive isotopes or what?
Here's me: Shut up, pussy. What has nuclear safety and environmental
responsibility ever gotten us? I don't know, but I know what it hasn't
gotten us: Superheroes. We can't win the war on terror without more
superheroes and we can't get more superheroes without freak nuclear
accidents. I know that, and John McCain knows that. Also, flipper
babies. We need lots more flipper babies.
