“I am scared to death for our country”:energy CEO says Obama destroying low-cost energy with EPA
foxnews copy on therightscoop.com ^ | June 20, 2014

Posted on 06/20/2014 5:23:29 PM PDT by Whenifhow

Murray Energy CEO Robert Murray says he is scared to death for this country, for poor people, those who live on fixed incomes and for people who are retiring.

Murray says Obama is illegally using the EPA and the Clean Air Act to take over the US Electric Power Grid and in the process he’s destroying low-cost energy.

Murray points out that coal is only 4 cents per kilowatt-hour and Obama wants to replace it with renewable energy sources, wind and solar, that cost 22 cents per kilowatt-hour.

By 2030, according to Murray, we will be down from 40% coal-fired electricity to 14% coal-fired electricity.

I voted for Romney against Obama.

But your guy, Obama, won. Is that what you wanted?

“On my ballot there was a check for Obama, Romney or a write-in.”

Oh? Who did which votes get counted for?

And you could have written in anyone. You did not.

Tom:

Cut the crap.

You want to be president, right?

Tell us how we can take it away from Obama.

I don't want to hear what you believe...I want to hear your strategy for taking the country back.

people who were too stupid to figure that out then are still completely clueless to that reality now. Romney sucks donkey balls, any good FReeper knows that - but that obama thing is hell itself.

He’s a liar as usual. Georgia had a 3rd candidate listed on the ballot, (former GOP NM Governor) Libertarian Gary Johnson. Write-in was the 4th option.

Obama’s term-limited out. So I don’t know what you’re talking about.

As far as taking the country back, there’s only one way, which is for folks like you to start matching your political actions to what it is you say you believe.

You’ll have to leave the deceptive allure of political expedience behind, which is hard for a lot of folks to do, I understand. But there really is no other way.

Finny, I think we solved the energy crisis, I really do.

Between the backpeadaling after Jim replied, Attacking tom then backpedaling a Boss, and the rest, I see no other possibility. All we need is to hook him up to a treadmill and a dynamo. The math major can do the equations for hooking it all up himself ;)

WINNING!

Reading is fundemental. Who did which votes get counted for? Whose votes did Romney voters have their votes apply to? Whose votes did Obama votes get applied to? And whose dit the write in votes apply to.

Hilarious...

You think we got here in a few election cycles? The Dems have been outsmarting even conservatives for a LONG time but especially the GOPe.

Our current situation is the culmination of 100 years of “progressives” in every aspect of our lives.

Without “winning a few”, slowing the tide & regrouping, we’ll get Obama-like candidates forever... until the collapse...

Sleep well...

The first thing you have to do is find something that is non-negotiable.

Here’s mine:

We’re one nation under God, and our rights come from God, not men.

The first sworn duty of every officer of government is to equally protect every individual person’s God-given, unalienable rights to life, liberty, and private property, from creation to natural death.

The God-ordained institution of one man-one woman marriage must be preserved.

The right of the people to Keep and Bear Arms shall not be infringed.

Our national sovereignty, security, and borders must be defended.

Our republican form of representative self-government must be upheld.

The sacred oath of office to support and defend our Constitution must be fulfilled.

Why is that too much to ask?

Odd. I never said or implied that.

What the f*ck are you talking about.

Votes for Romney were attributed to Romney, votes for Obama were attributed to Obama, and write-ins were tossed in the trash.

You are beginning to scare me.

FR is a place of greater understanding. This last election was binary.

There were 2 candidates and the rest were canned.

What do you think happened to those votes caste for Tom Hoefling? Do you think they made the evening news...or were just tossed in the can?

Good Lord...no wonder our country is in trouble. Our voters have become idiots.

“There remains the one standard that has not yet been universally used, namely, the choosing of candidates on moral grounds. A nation always gets the kind of politicians it deserves. When our moral standards are different, our legislation will be different. As long as the decent people refuse to believe that morality must manifest itself in every sphere of human activity, including the political, they will not meet the challenge of Marxism. Contemporary history proves that modern political leaders, devoid of a moral inspiration and relying solely on a mass basis (might makes right), proves ineffectual in time of crisis.”

— Fulton Sheen, “COMMUNISM and the CONSCIENCE of the WEST” -1948

But you told the class that the votes tossed in the trash elected Obama! Now you say they did not. Several times on this thread alone! Which is it math whiz?

OOPS!!!!

That’s a GREAT list...

Outside of FR, I’m not sure many even know what those things mean...

That’s the BIGGER battle we fight. Unfortunately, we fight each other because we are passionate about our positions and convictions. Dems (lemmings) engage in group-think and vote as a block and defeat us OFTEN... More often than we really want to admit...

I live in GA where we have almost super-majorities of republicans in both houses. BUT... We are about to replace Taxby Shameless with a clone... But the alternative is a Nunn who will vote like Chuck Schumer... For ME, the choice is clear...

Norm...get a cup of Joe and listen.

Votes caste for write-ins were irrelevant since there were two candidates vying for victory.

If you voted for PeeWee Hermann or Dick Cheney...your vote was tossed in the can.

The only votes that mattered were those for Obama or Romney.

Can you get it?

The guy with the most votes wins (still recalibrated within the electoral system).

If you voted for Tom H or whomever...your vote did not count.

It might have counted, but you chose a write-in who was not on the ballot.

And America is the worse for your stupidity.
