Joe Barton On Los Alamos

By Vince Leibowitz on Feb 6, 2007 in Texas Congressional Delegation

I had to post this quote simply because it is more amusing than than anything else I’ve read all week:

“It seems you can always hold a hearing on security lapses at Los Alamos,” said Joe Barton (R-TX), during this week’s hearings. “Well, enough is enough. This is not some fast food restaurant on the corner somewhere. I don’t have words to explain how frustrated I am.

“If there was a way to start over, I would say, ‘Shutdown Los Alamos. Fire everyone out there and a build a new laboratory somewhere else.’”

The fast food reference should garner Barton at least as much criticism as did the ad with K-Fed.
