So Much for Yucca Mountain - Nuclear Waste Storage On Ice

Well, Obama's new budget cuts out funding for the Yucca Mountain in Nevada, where most of the U.S.'s nuclear waste is stored underground. That's good, since burying our nuclear waste is kind of like pouring a barrel of used motor oil into a lake and calling it "clean."

The problem with this is that there's no alternative. What is Obama's plan for all that nuclear waste? Stack it up and hope it just kind of goes away on its own?

See, while Obama is getting all kinds of kudos and praise in the usual "green press" outlets for this decision, I have one big question that needs answering:

WHERE THE HELL DO WE PUT ALL THE NUCLEAR WASTE THEN?

See, those "green" nuclear power plants they love on the East Coast are kind of, well, producing nuclear waste. So...where do we put that stuff now?

I propose that we store it underneath the White House in that bunker they've got. When that's full, we'll move to the bunker under the Capital Building where Congress sits. Works for me.

Two birds with one stone and all that.

Who's with me?
