Harry Reid Doesn't Get It

Senator Harry Reid once again shows that he's not operating with a full deck:\

Those costs that you don't see on the bottom line. That is, coal makes us sick, oil makes us sick, its Global Warming, its ruining our Country, its ruining our World.”
Harry Reid - nutcase.

Perhaps the nation would have a nuclear alternative, but Reid opposes the opening of the national nuclear waste repository at Yucca Mountain, so the nuclear industry flounders.

Then again, Reid appears to ignore the fact that the medical industry relies heavily on plastics for everything from pipettes to IV bags and tubing. Plastics help ensure that medical devices are sterile for treatment. Plastics made from petroleum.

I guess Reid has never been sick or needed treatment or medications.

The world's health relies on plastics to deliver critical care, and yet Reid wants to demonize coal and oil as an energy source. At the same time, he and his fellow leftists thwart other potential power sources due to fear mongering (nuclear) and NIMBYism (hydro, wind, and tidal).
