Comments on target but bit late

By Ralph Damiani

We have to agree with Rep. Tom Udall, D-N.M., when he said that Los Alamos National Laboratory has a bright future.

However, it will not be due to any effort on his part. The congressman has been an opponent of the lab for some time, voting time and again to gut the facility and its budget. It is a bit disingenuous to come forward at the 11th hour with ideas and suggestions.

To be fair, he does dispute this, saying he has been a big supporter. We just have not seen it.
