One day one of these idiots is going to succeed in shutting down Indian Point and the lights are going to go off in Manhattan. Then what are they going to do?

“The Indian Point relicensing application wholly fails to address a number of crucial issues, and it should not be granted in its present form,” said Governor Spitzer. “I have repeatedly stated that we should close Indian Point as soon as there is sufficient replacement power available, and in the interim we will continue to insist that all environmental, safety and security issues are fully evaluated and addressed, in order to protect the health and safety of the communities surrounding the plant.”

Spitnitwit left himself an out.

Steets said, “fear-based rhetoric cannot alter the fact that, depending on seasonal demand, the 2,000 megawatts produced by Indian Point supplies between 18 percent and 38 percent of our region’s electricity needs with zero greenhouse gas emissions that cause global warming.”

That lying weasel always leaves himself an out. It kind of goes without saying.
