The overwhelming victory by President-elect Barack Obama (D-Ill.) signals a new day for American coal miners and all working families throughout our nation, United Mine Workers of America (UMWA) International President Cecil E. Roberts said today.
President-elect Obama has been consistent in his support for working families and our issues throughout his career, Roberts said. He has made it clear that as President, he will continue that support and will make our needs his priorities.
He will invest in the future of coal in America, Roberts said

So either Hussein was lying to his buddies in San Francisco or he was lying to the coal miners.
Either way, he is a liar.
LOL!
Save this one for the next election. If the mines are still open they will be shipping all their product to China, perhaps with Chinese managers overseeing them
Yes, he will give you all the welfare you can handle when your mines are closed and shut down forever because of Global Warming Carbon Cap & Trade schemes..........
Cecil,
I want some of what you’re smoking.
And I have some swamp land to sell them — if they can afford it after their union dues skyrocket.
I hope O destroys the US caol industry first.
News on the wires is layoffs are now mounting and the market is going down again today.
Everytime I convince myself that people aren’t that stupid I’m proven wrong yet again.....sheesh!!
one of two things will happen.
Obama will stay true to his views of putting companies that produce power out of business and these companies will not fight being blind to the dem party OR there will be the biggest political brawl ever seen as energy companies go full bore to bury Obama and his democrat allies that try to ruin this country with their extremely misguided policies.
High union dues? What union if there is NO coal industry?
LOL — shall we take up a collection and buy this guy a clue? Is there enough money in the world for that?
Cecil E. Roberts merely demonstrates that some degrees of stupidity probably can’t be remedied.
U-N-B-E-L-I-E-V-A-B-L-E !
Pennsylvania was the biggest shock of the election.
BO insults them.
Murtha insults them.
BO promises to shut down their main industry.
They overwhelmingly elect both of them to office. What would it take to open their eyes???
United Mine Workers of America (UMWA) International President Cecil E. Roberts”
When all the other coal miners are out of work, this union thug will still have a job.
I am still laughing.
where has this dude been lately?
He will divest invest in the future of coal in America,
Yes... bend over and grab your ankles.
delusional doesn’t even begin to describe these people.
I am so with you on this one. I really hope that the entire coal industry is destroyed and everyone of these idiots is out on their asses. What a bunch of total idiots.
By the way, Day 2 of the Obama World Market Melt Down!
Its all Obama’s fault!
