Apparently, the left will stoop to any level - any at all - in order to make a cheap political point. With the horrible accident ongoing and the fates of some miners still not known, the propagandists have already begun linking the West Virginia mining disaster to Tea Parties, global warming, and capitalism. Oh, and remember when President Bush somehow got blamed for the Sago mine disaster?! Surely, the Chosen One could have done something for these poor down-trodden workers...

All is politics to them. Everything must be filtered through their political/ideological biases.

Senator Byrd has no opinion about any location in WV that isn’t named for him.

Leftists live for politics 24/7. They love the stench of it.

Unfortunately normal people tire of the constant barrage of politics and tune them out giving them the room for their mischeif, thus another reason for them to play at their game.

The Left consists of a sick lot of self centered, and Politically corrupted criminals that are easily identifiable by what they project when they speak on most any topic. Listen to them, and understand they are speaking mostly of themselves as they accuse others of precisely that which they are doing.

I saw an interview of the Massey Energy CEO Don Blankenship on Fox News that embarrassed me, and I don't even like Mr. Blankenship. The reporter repeatedly baited Blankenship; but Blankenship answered in a calm and reasoned manner.

Blankenship was not treated in a fair or professional manner by the reporter. In my amateur opinion, the reporter should be fired.

I want to know why OSHA didn't shut the place down with all the fines and violations this company had. Now I have The Ed Show (PUKE) on and he's playing drama queen to the max. It's the Republican’s fault, we must have card check, unions would have saved lives, Teabaggers...etc. etc. Why didn't the government do their job and shut the mine down? They took over the ##@$*&)#*% car companies and the banks!!! Can't they handle a mine? (you get my drift)

That seems pretty obvious to me. What else is OSHA for? This can't be an opportunity for the loons on the left to run around making phony claims!

I’ll tell you what. My whole family is from Horsecreek WVa, my mother and her mother both went to Marsh Fork High school and half the men in my family were coal miners. Say what you want about any other union, coal miner unions were the only ones that play fair with the men and make things safe - Blankenship opens his mouth, he’s lying, and he is the worst of the worst. As long as coal is running, he could care less about safety of the men. He makes 18 million a year and let’s see exactly what kind of settlement he gives the kids of the miners. I despise that man, he is going straight to hell.
