Wasserman and Barton on DailyKos – not similar reading experiences

ByRod Adams

A friend sent me a link to a Harvey Wasserman comment about nuclear energy on DailyKos. As usual, he is pushing his lifelong anti-nuclear agenda by pointing to a Colbert Show skit with Jackson Browne – who is a far better singer than he is an energy solutions analyst.

If you have time, stop by for a visit and leave a comment. While you are at DailyKos, you might also want to read Charles Barton’s diary titled The Myth of Nuclear Subsidies. It’s a valuable contribution to the on-going conversation.
