This poison is more akin to the butchery of concentration camps of Nazi Germany when its compared to the environmental and human suffering, illnesses and losses the by products of coal fired plants produce.
How does this even come close to Nazi Germany you idiot!!!!!!!!!!!! The TVA is owned by the US Government and was set up by the God of the Dems. This is not about what side to blame, it's about energy. Coal and Nuclear are the only answer for the next 100 years. If anyone even thinks the U.S. population will accept a massive drop in their standard of living they are mistaken.

Why isn't there a disposal plan where the ash was created? It sounds wasteful to ship it anywhere for disposal. Who is paying for the disposal? If it is the taxpayer, we should be outraged.

"Both the Alabama and federal officials say the ash from the Tennessee Valley Authority's plant in Kingston, Tenn., isn't dangerous despite containing toxic materials like arsenic and lead."

Those officials can drink a gallon of that stuff and prove it.

I ain't no scientists but why not mix it with asphalt and repave America? Our roads were made with crude oil mixed with rocks to make our highways and that contained bad stuff. Economically is was our best option and rain run off carried away minimal contaminates in run off. Mix it with concrete to make buildings. Why not? It gets sealed with non-lead paint and poses no health hazard.

Why burry a good product? It's not like were giving aircraft manufacturers depleted uranium from the National stockpile just to get rid of it to use as balasts for aircraft.

Repave America with it. Start with the failing Democrat states. If they don't want it to create jobs, the Republican States will take it.

I' am a American no ties to either party, read my WHOLE post. I said BOTH parties are destroying this country with out of control spending.
Amazing how stupid people really are. If your against one party, your a extreme member of the other. I'M AGAINST BOTH PARTIES. Bush AND Obama are crooks.

Your attempt to throw confrontational politics does not blanket the fact that Republican policies over a 30 year span allowed the TVA to "temporarily" store fly ash stored as a thick gluey sludge in square miles of berms and dams for 30 years. Everyone living near this catastrophe knows it kills all life and now the TVA through remnants of the Bush administration is going to ship this poison to another state? This poison is more akin to the butchery of concentration camps of Nazi Germany when its compared to the environmental and human suffering, illnesses and losses the by products of coal fired plants produce.

Let's get our figures correct, so that you're not spewing the same, old, tired LIES......

The 2009 budget deficit is 46% larger now than on Jan. 20th, 2009.

The national debt is 5.6% larger than it was on Jan. 20th, 2009.

Neither one is hardly 2 or 4 times as large as you wrongly stated!

You must belong to the party of NO CLUE, since the federal reserve printing presses have been working overtime 24/7 for the past 8 years already! What's the difference?

Thanks for proving my point hiney, and showing the republican't NO CLUE propaganda.

President Obama was handed a $1.3 Trillion budget deficit on Jan. 20th, 2009, along with a $10.7 Trillion national debt.

Today, the budget deficit for 2009 is $1.9 Trillion and the national debt is $11.3 Trillion.

The size of the debt is an added $600 Billion and not even close to your fantasized doubling or quadrupling of the "size of the debt they are printing." We might be able to say that it is almost 50% larger than what the shrub handed him, but your saying it was 200% or 400% larger is simply ludicrous!

Appears that republican'ts are certainly mathematics-challenged, and that goes right along with their economically-challenged, non-thinking minds as well.

So you oppose Obama's plan to spend the money on America and America's problems, and you prefer the Bush plan which sent TRILLIONS to Haliburton, Blackwater, Iraq's new regime, Israel, Pakistan, etc, etc, etc?
