  1. I don't know about you, but I get the feeling that President Obama is playing a little two-faced here. It seems that he is promoting nuclear power to the nation and working to get new plants approved for construction, but at the same time the EPA is cutting down the plants in the background. Maybe I am mistaken, but I would appreciate a little more information on this if you have any.
