He is kinda obnoxious and loves the cameras but he truly cares for the miners and their families. I hope he wasn’t one that was lifted earlier to the hospital. Here’s some political info on Bob: http://newsmeat.com/ceo_political_donations/Robert_Murray.php

Bob Murray is 67.

Why are some saying he is 80 plus?

“Bob Murray is 67.”

“Why are some saying he is 80 plus?”

Dunno.

Sounds like normal coal mine politics.

If they are illegals, send Murray and company executives to jail for a long time. The company should be fined. Employers need to be held accountable for their actions.

From CNN:

“We are in an emergency situation,” Bob Murray, president and CEO of mine co-owner Murray Energy Group Corp., told CNN.

I see it as you do. I feel terribly for the man.

Some people think he was crass for challenging the assertion the the mine collapse produced a 4.5 quake instead of the 4.5 quake producing the collapse. I think he had every right to challenge it. The USGS is hardly infallible. And I’m sure it’s up to its eyeballs in partisan politics like every other tentacle of the federal hydra.

Unfamiliar with seismology? That is the world's most prestigious siesmology lab.

I don’t know if they are illegal.

It would not surprise me, but it is possible they are working here legally. They are from Mexico though. But they could be legal!

Yah yah yah. And if Murray is an illegal alien from outer space, deport him to his home planet.

Maybe because he looks it. On the other hand he has those telltale raccoon eyes. Pomar?
