Debate #3: McCain vs Obama - The Reckoning

[quote name='DJSteel']McCain Has NOT figured out how to end this war and WILL NOT make us energy independent.[/quote]

Sure he has, he want's to build 45 nuke plants in 20 years to make sure the terrorists have loads of targets, or places to get dirty bomb materials.
 
[quote name='mykevermin']This. Their constant bickering was so repetitive, tired, and droll, I thought I was watching a promo battle between a feuding John Cena and Triple H. Yuck.[/quote]

So is McCain gonna drop it to Obama to help put him over, or is Hilary gonna interfere in the last few seconds?

MAH GAWD!!!! HILARY WITH THE STUNNER!!!!

I thought Obama did great conjuring the trip to the moon in pushing what's possible with energy.
[/QUOTE]

About that. My eyebrow raised a little when Obama said that. Because here on CAG I have conjured the moon and Manhattan project analogies several times when arguing against the "it will take ten years to extract oil" excuse. I guess that analogy to point out Americans can work "miracles" only applies to alternative energy though.
 
[quote name='SteveDaWonder']McCain is who I am voting for.

Obama is just to arrogant.[/quote]

Come on now Stevey, just by this one post we can all tell that you're to intelligent 2 get fooled by the too candidates.

Outstanding misuse of all three forms of "to".
 
[FONT=verdana, arial, helvetica]Looks like Mccain is having flashbacks.. He says "my fellow prisoners" instead of my fellow Americans.. That senile dementia must be kicking in..

People don't understand the dangers of wind and solar power.

If you ram a 747 into a wind or solar farm, it takes weeks if not months to make repairs.

If we learned anything from "The Nuclear Comeback", it is that nuclear power is incredibly safe.

The problem is that no matter what when people hear "nuclear power" they automatically think Chernobyl or 3-Mile Island. It's hard to explain to some that America has infinitely higher safety standards for nuclear energy than the Sovet Union ever had, and that techology has come a long way in that ensuring that no disaster like those could ever be repeated.

Oh you mean the sirens that don't work around Indian Point in New York? When I lived just south of there, there were newspaper articles all the time about how the sirens wouldn't kick on even when they were testing them. Please don't point to our current nuclear policy and say that something can't happen.

How about Sweden? Those damn, dirty Swedes were 20 minutes away from a meltdown. Of course, that type of accident was calculated happening once every 10 million years. That's comforting.

Chernobyl? What's the big deal? The "no living" radius is only 30 km. That's not even 20 miles. Foreigners and their damn metric system trying to make things look big.
 
I can't give blood because I lived in Germany when Chernobyl went critical. That has nothing to do with this race but it shows that I don't trust and won't commit to nuclear power being our answer for energy independence.
 
I'm against wind turbines. Terrorists could convert them into airplanes and crash them into our buildings again!

Solar panels? No way, buddy. Some of that light could be reflected into the eyes of pilots. Then ... they'd crash their planes into MORE buildings.
 
[quote name='depascal22']Your humor never quite hits the point, FoC. You can't really deny that nuclear is less safe than wind and solar, can you?[/quote]

Nukular power will be safer than everything once John "The Deregulator" McCain gets all mavericky on it.
