From day one of the Japanese catastrophe, the news coming out of the nuclear plant has been confusing and contradictory. It was recently learned that the plant personnel had no or little communication with upper management during the initial days because lines were down. Since then, however, the Japanese have communicated enormously high radioactive levels and then said they were in error. They have reported radioactive cows and milk and now say that is a "miscalculation."
COMMENTS:
It could be an old trick used by governments everywhere when they get in trouble; confuse the public so that they don’t know what to believe. Whatever the reason, this issue is so vital that there is simply no excuse for putting out wrong information; lives depend on it. When it comes to the subject of radioactivity, you can't trust anybody.
TODAY’S QUERIES & ANSWERS:
Q. Why is AARP under scrutiny? (Hilda ~ Bethesda, MD)
A. Because they deserve it. They are flaunting the law and displaying a total lack of ethics.
Q. Obama is proclaiming the economy to be solved and back on the right track. The stats seem to back him up, with unemployment down and new jobs up. But, I don’t know of anyone who has gone back to work where I live and housing foreclosures are sky high. Gas prices are going up and inflation is really starting to skyrocket. What is the truth? (Ben ~ Reno, NV)
A. Don’t expect to hear the truth from Obama. Real unemployment is much higher, because people who are dropping off the unemployment rolls are not counted. With inflation, higher interest rates and rising gas prices, the bottom is due to fall out soon.
Q. The Libyan rebels are in trouble. Does that mean we are going to get more involved? (Kris, Redding, CA)
A. Obama wants to win reelection. Now that he has stuck his neck out and not informed Congress of what he was doing, he cannot afford to lose this war. But, his left-wing buddies don’t like being at war, either. Look for NATO to ask member nations for ground troops, supplies and training and for the U.S. to comply so that Obama can pass the buck... and duck.
