He needs a hole this big to sink a five-foot putt.

It is for a ‘small nuclear reactor,’ probably in the range of 1600 MWe. The White House cannot risk going without power or depending on generators in the event of an attack on the power grid.

The new ‘small nuclear reactor’ provides for design and physical size efficiency. Really kind of neat. The proper size will power a small village...like the critical apparatus of the White House.

Everyday this president surprises me from the ‘balls’ he has shown going after and assassinating our enemies to installing a reactor in the heart of DC.

Shale oil and oil sands.....

Frack like there's no tomorrow

(Fracking chemicals = salt water, acetic acid (vinegar for those in Rio Vista, and WD40)

“Can’t quite put my finger on it, but wasn’t there someone else who had a thing for large underground bunkers??
Hmmm.. Funny hair, silly mustache, spoke German a lot...”

You beat me to the punch. I thought exactly the same thing.

1600 MW would power a lot more than a shall village, and would be much bigger than that.

...and more than a “small” village also.

Let me guess... it’s a bigger septic tank to accomodate all the extra bullsheet the Obamas generate?
