Not content with BP's destruction of the oceans, Obama calls for big expansion of nuclear power By Lori Price 02 Jun 2010

Obama: Oil spill another reason for 'a clean [sic] energy future' 02 Jun 2010 ...Here are excerpts of the economic speech Obama delivered Wednesday at Carnegie Mellon University. 'The time has come, once and for all, for this nation to fully embrace a clean energy future. That means continuing our unprecedented effort to make everything from our homes and businesses to our cars and trucks more energy efficient. It means tapping into our natural gas reserves, and moving ahead with our plan to expand our nation's fleet of nuclear power plants.'

If George W. Bush made such a call, in the aftermath of the largest ecological disaster in US history, the so-called 'left' would be up in arms, would they not? Instead, under cover of a sycophantic, conciliatory media, Mr. Exelon aka Barack Obama gets oh-but-another pass.
