I think they are talking about diesel generators to supply power for the cooling pumps. It’s possible one of our military installations in Japan have generators mounted on a truck.

She jumped the gun – tried to look good.

This is a sign of incompetence.

At her level she must make sure she speaks on facts not guesses.

Does Hilary really know anything that’s going on? what a train-wreck of an Administration.

Like all amateur diplomats and like all politicians, Hillary wanted credit and publicity. An experienced diplomat would quietly assist Japan rather than causing them public embarrassment as needing help from Big Brother. Her haste to get credit and the carelessness of her staff in knowing what is actually going on combined to produce the usual — the term from World War II is SNAFU.

Thought the coolant was water. Something they have plenty of.
What is this coolant they speak of? Another example of Hillary talking about something she knows nothing about and the media talking about something they know nothing about.

Oh please, naive people. Of course we’re (US) helping to deliver coolant. The US wants to allow the Japanese government to assure people that they have things in hand. Good idea. Promotes confidence and stability in the Japanese gov’t and prevents panic. Delivery of coolant will come from where ever it has to come from and get there the fastest. Don’t be daft, and look for an excuse where we (US) didn’t or wouldn’t help. We are. Get real.

Guess Hillary “misspoke” again. I mean c’mon…sometimes you actually think you DID have to dodge sniper fire in Bosnia, even if you really didn’t. Sometimes you think your government DID deliver coolant, even though they didn’t. Give her a break, it’s not her fault she never knows what’s going on, she’s only Secretary of State.

Just another example of our witless, inept, lying* SoS trying to make herself the center of attention when she’s really just the least important person in the room – next to Barack Hussein Obama.

* E.g., her patently false claim to have been named after Sir Edmund Hillary; her claim to have been caught in enemy crossfire in Bosnia; among other whoppers that she’s told over the years.

Why in the heck are they using something that Ex-President Hillary has said? He doesn’t have a clue about anything going on ….. may not even know that Japan is another country, not a U.S. state.

Or is the Obama administration just trying to make nuclear power look bad. Nothing a little coolant shortage during a catastrophe wont cure.

Never forget 9/11 lies.
Study prevailing winds.
Traditional cooling not possible.
Containment has been breached.
Dishonest governments never tell the truth.
Corrupt controlled media never tell the truth.
