During the first presidential debate between McCain and Obama on September 27, McCain said:
Senator Obama opposes both storing and reprocessing of spent nuclear fuel.
But according to Obama’s energy plan, McCain is wrong:
In terms of waste storage, Barack Obama and Joe Biden do not believe that Yucca Mountain is a suitable site. They will lead federal efforts to look for safe, long?term disposal solutions based on objective, scientific analysis. In the meantime, they will develop requirements to ensure that the waste stored at current reactor sites is contained using the most advanced dry?cask storage technology available.
McCain’s lying - Obama supports plans for the storage of nuclear waste.
