Harry Reid: “I will say quickly that this document about which my friend from Alaska refers is not worth the paper on which it is…”

“I will say quickly that this document about which my friend from Alaska refers is not worth the paper on which it is written. It talks about 4,300 shipments on trains--they have no trains at Yucca Mountain, 100 miles from any train. This piece of trash--and that is what it is--is typical of what the Department of Energy has done. It is one big lie after one big lie. As indicated by anyone who looks at it, there are 292 reports that they did not even wait to see what the answers would be. The General Accounting Office said that, not some radical environmental group--the General Accounting Office. So the statements of my friend from Minnesota are directly on point. This means nothing.”
