Why do employees bother to embrace integrity when our elected leaders don't?
Tri-Valley Cares needs to be on this if they aren't already. We need to make sure that NNSA and LLNL does not make good on promises to pursue such stupid ideas as doing Plutonium experiments on NIF. The stupidity arises from the fact that a huge population is placed at risk in the short and long term. Why do this kind of experiment in a heavily populated area? Only a moron would push that kind of imbecile area. Do it somewhere else in the god forsaken hills of Los Alamos. Why should the communities in the Bay Area be subjected to such increased risk just because the lab's NIF has failed twice and is trying the Hail Mary pass of doing an SNM experiment just to justify their existence? Those Laser EoS techniques and the people analyzing the raw data are all just BAD anyways. You know what comes next after they do the experiment. They'll figure out that they need larger samples.

All good questions that Obama conveniently does not answer.

As for elected leaders, I believe many do have integrity, even if one disagrees with their approach to the complex issues involved in conducting national and world affairs in a democratic society. I believe Obama has integrity, although I think his answers to many of those issues are underinformed, parochial and counterproductive. I thought GW Bush had integrity, although most liberals would say the same of him. Both Trump and Hillary lack integrity--they are both power-driven egotists who will say anything to get what they want, and who believe that rules are for other people. Through all of that, I don't think my moral compass swings to match that of any particular elected leader. I believe that is true of almost all my colleagues.
