McConnell: “This EPA has turned the coal permitting process into an illegitimate, back-door means to shut down coal mines permanently."

[rktman]

I could have sworn that someone said something about energy prices skyrocketing a couple (maybe 4 & a half) years ago. Hmmmm. Anyhow, Happy Mothers day to all the mothers out there.

from the article: “There is no debate within the science community, based on the peer-reviewed literature, about the large changes occurring in the earth’s climate and the fact that these changes are occurring as a response to human activities, mainly burning fossil fuels,” said Dr. Donald Wuebbles, a professor of atmospheric science at the University of Illinois.

Really? I wonder if Professor Don Easterbrook who recently addressed our state legislators here in Washington State would agree that there is no debate? Maybe Dr. Wuebbles can explain why their has been “no statistically significant” global warming for the past 15 years despite rising CO2 levels. Oh wait... none of his “climategate” buddies have been able to do that.

Most of U.S. energy is from coal power plants or was recently before the EPA crack down

this is gov tyranny ,proves that government doesn't work

The EPA should be abolished

U.S. has unlimited supplies of coal which could be used to lower our energy bills, and the bills of businesses which in turn could power an industrial revolution

Obama’s EPA is shutting down coal for a hoax called global warming

Obama’s EPA is shutting down coal for a hoax called global warming

Obama’s EPA is shutting down coal because they are anti-capitalists.

[PoloSec]

The EPA and IRS are the dominate two of the top tier mafia style criminal gov’t organizations.

McConnell: “This EPA has turned the coal permitting process into an illegitimate, back-door means to shut down coal mines permanently."

Yeah, and...? The POS said he was going to do this, so quit whining and mumbling about it and DO SOMETHING!

Dr. Donald Wuebbles

Wuebbles wobble, but never fall into the truth.

[rktman]

This nonse has everything to do with cap and trade, leading to the Chicago Climate Exchange, the largest scam in the history of mankind.

Al Gore, the Clintons, Goldman Scahs, Soros, all the usual suspects are hip deep in this. this is their holy grail. Establish “carbon credits” as a new commodity, a purely fictional asset. This takes fractional reserve banking to a whole new level. Currency based on... Well ...Literally thin air

And if only there such a thing as a Legit media, this would be common knowledge.

Meanwhile, the very poor, hard working people in Appalachia an other coal areas are being destroyed, and it really pisses me off...

[rktman]

Too bad some of us have principals. Otherwise we could have made a fortune like algore and his fellow liars did. And some people actually believe this garbage. “Got some nice land to sell you about 30 miles west of Miami.”

We do outreach in eastern Tennessee and Kentucky.
These people are not like the dead beat inner city blacks, asking for a hand out. I they are generations of proud folks wanting to earn their keep.

Many younger families are getting on with the gvmnt dole, but many older folks refuse to.

And additionally, as one would expect, the drug epidemic is rampant, well beyond what it already was historically happening.

People have no ides what is happeningto the families in this region due to our Marxist dirtbag in chief.

I would encourage everyone and to ask their church to pray for this overlooked part of our Great land

Rant off>
