Obama Does Not Support Coal
Bloomberg is reporting that Obama will classify carbon dioxide as a dangerous pollutant that can be regulated should he win the presidential election.
Bloomberg says the move may halt construction plans on half of the 130 proposed new U.S. coal plants. New plants are being planned for Nevada, Utah, New Mexico, Texas, Montana, Minnesota, Illinois, Michigan, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Virginia, Georgia, and Florida.

IMHO, he wants us subserviant to other nations.
But help is on the way...
OH and PA just went full-bore for McCain...assuming this news is spread.
“Obama Does Not Support Coal”
Gee. Ya think?
Where is the more cowbell jpeg?
Well, it's not a deal breaker, at least he supports my 2nd amendment rights./s
Doesn’t McCain do the same though? He’s a global warmer cap-and-trade guy too.

McCain/Palin 08
Commercial time!!!
United Mine Workers are running anti-Mccain ads here in SW PA. I wonder if this news would matter to them? I know unions support Dems but aint no way no how Obama will help coal industry.
I can't believe nobody is talking about undoing THAT piece of garbage executive order. Utah is basically in two parts, i.e. a northern part which looks sort of like Switzerland, and a southern part which looks more or less like Mars. The coal resources are in the part which looks like Mars.
Obama Does Not Support Coal
Time for a new TV ad. Pennsylvania and Ohio will be a locked up for McCain. (If it isn’t already)
You bet it matters.
Obama supports whatever Daley tells him to. Murtha calling Pennsylvanians racists probably doesn’t help either. These thugs even being considered is ridiculous.
I would think it bodes ill for CNG powered cars as well.
Coal 2 and 1/2 cents per KW, wind 14 cents.

Obama does not support nuclear either. He plans to add additional regulations on the existing plants and prevent new construction until a new waste repository (not Yucca Mountain) is on line.
This will take more than a decade at best. The feds started looking at Yucca Mtn in '78, approved the site in 2002 and estimate the completion in 2020.
It is estimated that new nuclear plant construction could generate 350,000 jobs in the US.
To the point! Can I use it?
I don’t think Obama, or the majority of the population for that matter, know that coal produces CO2. So, he can blithely contradict himself and no one calls him on it.
