It’s unlikely that United Mine Workers of America president Cecil Roberts thought he would be arrested protesting the energy policies of the very politician his union supported in 2008. But things have come full circle for coal miners, who now see President Obama’s climate agenda threatening their livelihoods.

How could the be so stupid? Obama had previously announced before the election he was going to declare war on coal.

IBEW did the same thing. My, how the worm begins to turn.

It does take a God to forgive them. I am not a God, and am unable to give a damn about his ilk anymore.
How do you spell Manchin . . .o-p-p-o-r-t-u-n-I-s-t.
Some union boss likely told them the same crap they always tell these guys.
Democrats are for the “working man”, and Republicans are for the rich.
It’s amazing how even in age of the internet, you can still have idiots that just go with that line of bull.
Tagline.
Cast stupid votes - Win stupid prizes.
He told you, before the election, that he wanted to destroy the coal industry and you nitwit union lemmings voted for him anyway....PATHETIC....you have only yourselves to blame....
bump
Glad to see that some Otards can finally grasp the consequences of voting for that communist, now they can go down with the rest of the country.
