But things have come full circle for coal miners, who now see President Obama’s climate agenda threatening their livelihoods.

That makes sense. The permanent underclass (those never seeking work) plus government employees must make up a sizable plurality of the electorate. Add in the bundled money of Hollywood and other oligarchs (Silicon Valley, Wall Street etc.), and there is a recipe for making elections turn out poorly for everyone working hard and seeking to create wealth.
Also note how the membership is still being led by the nose into jail with their union reps when they should be going after the union in court for failure to represent (but that’d take them thinking).
You are so right. I’m glad that I don’t have school age kids anymore. They are going to be crammed into a 24’ x 24’ classroom with a bunch of kids that are carrying things our kids have never been exposed to.
I think by late September or early October things are going to be very bad for the health of our population. I can’t believe there aren’t more people worried about this.
Everyone has a story that has been redeemed by the Blood of the Lamb. I’m glad God is a God of the second, third, fourth. . . . .. chance.
No one is guaranteed a tomorrow. The end times could be in the next minute/second for anyone. Everyone has the choice where they are going to be spending eternity.
It’s simple Repent and vote Republican to PUNISH the DEMOCRATS that want to ruin your job, Union members!!~
There are some on-line schools available. . . .but then they may not “still” be available.
As many chances as are sincerely needed, to seventy times seven and beyond. Slow to anger, abundant in lovingkindness. It is people who are selling God way short, not God that is making His arm too short to save. Those who take God at His word find that He lives up to it in spades.
Anyone who actually works for a living and votes democrat belongs in a mental health facility.
It used to be a staple of Democrat practice that there would be special consideration for the rednecks, the working men. And so there was some sense in such loyalty. This has now given way to screaming raw demonic Marxism.
Bow down before the one you serve, you’re going to get what you deserve.
maybe Ted Cruz should start reaching out to this COal Union...perfect oppertunity to build a presidential team of support!
They are stupid enough to belong to a union. Which is more than enough proof IMHO they are stupid and easily led.
They’ll get no sympathy from me...
Just askin’. Thanks.
0bama announced during his 2008 campaign his objective to close down the coal industry. And, the coal miner unions supported 0Bamma??????? Well, they got no hope, lots of change, and they’re all screwed. Let me correct that: we are ALL screwed!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
These union people are just as much enemies of human civilization as are the muslims.
Anyone who votes Democrat need to be treated like the NAZIs that they are.
Well, then end times, it is.
No bad blood. Only the good blood of the Cross.
We’re 2000 years closer to it than were the New Testament authors.
Idols show their idol-ness by disappointing us.
