| Is it true that Sharon Angle is for prohibition on alcohol and Yucca Mountain nuclear waste? |
|
Instead of facing a more mainstream Republican in November, his opponent will be Tea Party affiliated Sharron Angle who wants to privatize Social Security, abolish Medicare and replace it with vouchers, restore the prohibition of alcohol (in Nevada no less), eliminate the Departments of Education and Energy, and store the nation's nuclear waste at Yucca Mountain, not too many miles from Las Vegas.http://www.huffingtonpost.com/robert-creamer/three-lessons-from-tuesda_b_605885.htmlThis broad is an ad-maker's wet dream.

I once worked at a bar that served a drink called "Yucca Mountain Nuclear Waste." Like a Long Island Iced Tea.

All the other things mentioned are current position - Social security, Medicare, Dept of Ed and Energy.
Had not heard about Yucca Mountain. I can believe it though.

| 10. How does being a US Senator relate to banning alcohol in NV? |

Perhaps Nevada is not the best place for her to be a public servant.
