AMERICAblog: From a Salon Interview of Ron Reagan Jr Last month

] "And the weapons of mass destruction? Whatever happened
] to them? I'm sure we'll find some," he laughs. "They're

] be, a lot of people killed over there. And if you don't
] care about the Iraqi casualties, what about the American?
] We stand to lose more people in the next months of
] occupation than we lost in the weeks of war. One of the
] reasons we escaped largely unscathed so far was because
] our military moved so fast. But now we're sitting targets

AMERICAblog: Because a great nation deserves the truth
Topic: Miscellaneous 10:21 am EDT, Jun 10, 2004

] In three separate press conferences over a three year
] period at the beginning, and well into, the AIDS crisis,
] Ronald Reagan's chief White House spokesman joked and
] laughed off questions when reporters tried to make
] serious inquiries about the AIDS epidemic.

Fantastic transripts here. I told myself that I wouldn't get involved in the counter-revisionism that is going on right now with us liberals (TM) but I had never actually seen the active oppression in the administration. I suppose its at least a partially unfair lens given that 50 years ago racist jokes were acceptable. But still. Not everyone was a saint just because you choose to selectively remember them that way.

Well, from what (little, admittedly) i have read, it is the only means by which to produce the uranium to be used. you MUST, currently, have petrol to refine the uranium (and hydrogen, for that matter). I don't know if there is a POTENTIAL to not use it, but that has yet to be seen. And with 40 years left, how quickly do you think it can be rolled out...
