The best way to PREDICT RAIN rain is to WASH your CAR?

2011 has FOUR unusual dates: 1/1/11, 1/11/11, 11/1/11, 11/11/11.

Additionally, take the last two digits of the year in which you were born and then ADD the age you will be this year. The results will be 111 for everyone in the world.

The idiotology of ideology?

[id·i·ot·all·o·gee]

Compare:
Between 2003-2010, the U.S. spent $21.3 billion on rebuilding Iraqi security forces.

Contrast: Under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009, better known as the Stimulus Bill
$1.3 billion went for the construction of military hospitals, $6 billion for the cleanup of radioactive waste (mostly nuclear weapons production sites) & $600 million for hazardous waste cleanup at Superfund sites (EPA). 

When this blogger read that $6 billion was allocated for the cleanup of radioactive waste, my first thought was "where is it & how long has it been there?" 

Why did it take a so-called stimulus package to address the issue of nuclear waste in this country?
