Bottom line:

"A Heritage Foundation analysis found that implementing Obama’s proposed regulation on existing coal plants would destroy more than 500,000 jobs, slash the income of a typical family of four more than $1,400 a year, and increase electricity prices at least 20 percent."

>>Obama declares a War on Coal<<

That should read, War on America.

[ilovesarah2012]

Obama declared war on coal before he was ever elected. This isn’t news.

[BitWielder1]

Yes they did vote for this. He said it very clearly before the 2008 election.

[CivilWarBrewing]

"This is not what the American people voted for."

Knowing what we know now about the shut down of the Tea Party by the IRS, the DOJ gathering intelligence on conservative media by eavesdropping on Fox News, Holder suing Voter ID states, and various cover-ups of other events by team 0bama, the American people were denied a free and fair election.

Zero is using the words “carbon pollution” for carbon dioxide...all while he speaks in his rolled up shirt sleeves and wipes his brow with his little hanky.

What a load of bull****.

Next up: A program to pay the utility bills of the lower and middle classes (now one and same), by taxing whoever is left.

By inviting millions of undocumented immigrants to stay here, Obama’s enlarging our carbon footprint.

I wonder if West Virgina voters are proud they sent Machin to the Senate to provide Zero with all the support necessary to destroy West Virgina.

[himno hero]

Is he taking his war to China? India? Brazil? any of the fastest developing nations, which are co incidentally the largest and dirtiest players?
For them it is simple economics, and for us too.

All he wants to do is insure America is not competitive.
By removing America from trade, he is jeopardizing the world.

That is the stuff global wars are made of.

Here’s to hoping that coal mops the floor with him.

Cheers!

measures are necessary to drive demand for OPEC oil high
and to drive the production of America's coal and oil down."

This clown is only into six months of his second term, and it is one fight with leftist extremism after another. It’s going to be an interesting 42 months ahead. Will America survive?

“Obama declares a War on Coal”

Again?

[bassmaner]

Oh, the schadenfreude, when some Volt-driving hairy-underarmed lefty Obama lover is stuck at home because she can't charge her car's batteries. So she stays home, and picks up the remote to watch her MSNBC favorites Rachel and Chrissie. She presses power button, and nothing happens because the coal-fired powerplant down the road that powers her car and her flat screen has been shut down.

Oh, I just can't wait ...

[newfreep]

Another communist lied?

I'm shocked!

[bigbob]

You don't just pull the plug on coal without pulling the plug on the US economy:

[JimSEA]

My, my, my. Lets see, we can no longer use any fossil fuel (oil based, natural gas or coal), nuclear fuel (how would anyone like a Fukushima disaster in their back yard - all it would take is a little old 9.0 earthquake and related tsunami hitting the plant), hydraulic power destroys stream and river habitat, wind and solar power doesn’t work, and finally magic is unreliable even with Obama unicorns helping.

What we have got here is a real live conundrum. Obama will figure it out. Maybe, the destruction of our economy will lower demand to the point where four old ladies on stationary bikes will supply all our real needs.

[USFRIENDINVICTORIA]

Well, at least shutting down American coal-fired generating stations will free up more coal for export to China.

(I’m being sardonic, not sarcastic.)
