Audio: Obama will bankrupt the coal industry
Sundy morning buzz: Everyone’s sending me the audio clip now up on YouTube of Obama telling the San Francisco Chronicle he’ll make it impossible for new coal plants to be built. The interview took place in January. The YouTube user is NakedEmperorNews, who uploaded Obama’s redistribution of wealth interview.
Bankrupty: The change Obama thinks the coal industry deserves…

love it ….sandyb
Bud! My Brother! If I had known that you wanted to pee on the NY Times I would have bought you the freakin beer!
sandyb:
.
Thanks! I needed that
Very good PK 185, very good indeed. Know your history and heritage-it helps.
Ryan Grant should be subjected to a thorough drubbing. Makes it hard to be a Packer fan here in Wausau
Looks like word IS getting out about this story. Now Drudge has it on his page, I actually saw it on ABCNews.com and Palin used it today against Obama, and it’s making the rounds in the WV papers (big time coal country) nicely nestled around PA and OH.
Too bad for all those idiots who voted early.

Actually, that is an example of you deliberately misquoting me. To find out what I actually said before you tried to twist it, see post #133.
A person true to the US Constitution trusts in his gun, and not in his government. If that were not the case, then there would be no Declaration of Independence, no Constitution, and no USA. History class dismissed.
The sad part is, many people probably think their rights come from the Constitution, when in reality, all the Constitution does is merely recognize the rights that we already have by virtue of Nature’s God.
This second amendment talk has me wondering, as I sit here waiting for the mailman to deliver my concealed carry permit (the sheriff advised spending the extra 20 bucks for the hard plastic, as opposed to paper). What do I want to conceal and carry?
Touche! ROTFLMAO
One thing I am not sure has been comment on regarding Obama’s plans for the coal industry.
In his plan Obama shows absolutely no concern for the lives he would rip apart. Acceptable casualties for the greater good. My is history filled with men who thought that way. All tyrants.
Klaatu
There are various opinions as to what to carry. In my opinion, as I have a conceal carry….. I believe to carry a weapon that is easy to maintain and use… has stopping power, and , in fact can be concealed. Above all, get familiarized with it as much as you can. I prefer the Smith and Wesson 6015 model 3 1/2 in barrel 5 shot 38/357/ Others will support getting an automatic… my response to them is.. you won’t get a chance to fire 8 to 15 rounds… and you’re not suppose to act like a Paladin in ‘Have Gun Will Travel” The choice is yours, but know how to use it better than anyone.
In his plan Obama shows absolutely no concern for the lives he would rip apart.
Wrong. These poor souls would become wards of the state. Democrats forever… dependent on the state, beholden to the state.
Paladin was an intellectual gunslinger. That would be a romantic notion for me to contemplate, except for the Islamic connotation of the name. But, the sheriff did say to get a revolver. Paladin’s did have pearl handles, didn’t they?
That’s what my Mexican GF keeps telling me! You must be sykic!
My apologies, and I don’t mean to sound critical, but I do wish the discussion about guns and types of guns could be taken off-line somewhere. This thread is about Obama and the coal industry. There were other threads that disolved into gun talk too, and it was unnerving. I say this with all respect, so please don’t take it the wrong way. I just think it goes way way off-topic.
This is true and fundamental to the success of socialism. The state breaks your ties with family and neighbors. It then redirects your loyalty to the state, the collective.
Klaatu possibly, but he only carried one… on his hip…. in a big holster…. not concealed…..lol
OT: Payback At a Biden Rally!
It’s about time but it looks like some loyal conservatives have treated Biden to the same thing his allies in Code Pink have been dealing out to our folks.
Damn I wish I was there - the signs alone look like it was worth a trip;
“It’s our dough, Joe!”
“Obama not ready”
“Barack Obama wants your money”
“Why so socialist?”
“Spread butter not wealth”
“Abortion is murder”
“Don’t tax me for working hard”
“Taxed to death”
and
“I wrote Joe’s speech.”
They say Biden was so flustered he couldn’t come up with someone elses words to use against the protesters.
happyscrapper,
the dialogue is connected with the thought process that is triggered by the knowledge that Obama, in light of his desire to have the power to bankrupt coal entities shows people that he plans on controlling and interfering with private rights and concerns. Hence, that diversion to the topic… no offense taken .. but I say that to explain the diversion.
Klaatu said:

So, why ask the question to which you know the answer… the question is what to do next?
happyscrapper, don’t worry about it. If this information about Obama’s position on coal gets out to the people in OH, PA, CO, etc., we won’t have to worry about an Obama presidency.
The coal industry affects the price and availability of electricity, and thus, the entire economy.
Obama’s energy position: “Let them eat cake.”
That encapsulates my earleir comment regarding Obama not caring about the lives he rips apart.
His focus is all about achievemnt of an ideology. He is oblivious to the human impact. Rush has commented on how “cold” Obama seems.
Cold, calculating, and devoid of compassion.
What do we do? Short term, Job 1 is get to the polls and ge as many like minded people to go with you.
Flyoverman said:
How can you say such a thing? Have you seen the price of arugula down at Whole Foods lately?!
Looks like his comments are getting out. Problem is it is probably too little,too late to make much of a difference. Considering some of the other bombshells that have been out there he should be seeing numbers in the low thirties. People just don’t want to hear the truth, don’t care, don’t believe it and are swallowing the MSM whitewash whole.
I have too wonder what Sen. Robert Byrde really thinks about Obama after this latest revelation? And why can’t union workers see that Democrat policies detroy or force oversees the large companies that provide those jobs. Will they be happy flipping burgers knowing that the evil corporation that was supposedly exploitng them was finally brought to it’s knees and destroyed?
And what do we do? It is impossible to rationalize with an Obama supporter now. But after the econonmy tanks, people start losing their jobs and those with good jobs start complaining about their higher taxes I am going to be very vocal in pointing out the Democrat policies that are causing their pain. People start to come to their senses when faced with economic realities, as opposed to the MSM manufactered suffering of the Bush years. I will remind them of the prosperity of the Bush years endlessly and harp on about every moronic gaffe by The One. Wait, forget that last item as I don’t have nearly enough time. I’ll do what I can but hopefully M. Malkin will be able to keep up.
He is probably up in the attic, digging into the old footlocker seaching for the white robe and hood.
In Flyover Country arugula ususally ends up having atrazine applied to it, along with all of the other broad leaf weeds. Can’t degrade the corn and soybean yields here.
jsr said:
Who cares what Byrd thinks.
I’m not worried about WV, there is no way WV will vote for Obama (it is a socially conservative state, and there is no large, liberal urban centers). I think PA is the state to watch. My guess is, whoever wins PA wins the presidency.
There is a hard lesson for the blue collar voters to be learned here. By voting for O they are cutting their own throats. McCain wants to build nuke plants and drill for oil which would create millions of construction and manufacturing jobs, Obama pays lip service, and doesnt have an energy plan except gov handouts to help his core constituents pay for their energy bills with your tax dollars. The union bosses are pushing hard for O because they want to organize the workers at wall mart. Big deal. Soon the trade unions will find out that a lot of the ACORN goons will be showing up at the hall for their share of dwindleing contruction jobs because commercial building will go into decline. Only then will they realize thier mistake.
MNDavid…Thanks for the explanation. I wouldn’t want a fellow Minnesotan to get mad at me!! Now, I just heard the coal audio replayed by Sean Hannity about 15 minutes ago…he gave credit to Michelle Malkin for the information and said, “good job, Michelle”. They had a democrat pollster on there who said, “Was that Barack’s voice on there?” Sean said “yes”. The democrat said something like…”My God, where has this been? I can’t believe he actually said that!” Yeah, we know where this has been. Hidden by the MSM so as not to hurt their Chosen One. It is pretty much too late for any of this now. Thanks to MSM, they have just purchased an election with their jounalistic corruption. What I don’t understand is…WHY??? What does this empty vessel have to offer anyone??? He is less than nothing. He will hurt so many people in the country…how can they not see that? Sorry, this happyscrapper is not happy. I think my username should more appropriately be “angryscrapper”.
He’s still alive?
If you afford them, the SOG guys I know love the Kimber line. 1911 Pro Carry II isn’t bad. I like .40-.45 chambered weapons, but well-placed 9mm’s work just as well. Conceals well in the pants, especially if you have one of those pager/cellphone contraptions I’ve been seeing more and more of at the shows.
Glock’s not bad, pretty stupid proof, and will take a lot of abuse.
Thanks, but ouch!
These guys are idiots. Obamabiden. They’re just idiots.
The good news is that is pretty unlikely they will actually be elected.
send this one far and wide, people—even if you’re like me and you don’t know anyone in said states, OTHER PEOPLE DO and can spread the word. So send to everyone you know—SOMEBODY will know someone who lives in OH, PA, IN, VA, CO etc.!!And these are KEY SWING STATES, Y’ALL!
I think the Republican party knew they were in trouble this go-round, but not how severely. I’m not just speaking of this campaign, but of the entire party. I suspect we’re going to see some major re-framing in the next couple of years. What this campaign did was highlight just how behind the curve the Repubs are. They sold themselves to the religious Right and now are experiencing a severe backlash. Not to mention, they have not done enough to distance themselves from the images of bigotry and ignorance. That does not mean that all Repubs are redneck bigots. It simply means they have not actively engaged enough in separating from that portion of the population (which admittedly exists in both parties). Through their rhetoric, they also tend to feed that portion of their members. Along with the expected return to the philosophy of small government and low spending, I suspect we’ll see them trying to redefine their image as being for “all Americans” instead of the White faith-based Americans (with a few token minorities) reputation they currently have.

People, people . . . please wake up, the core of this election is very simple. It is a struggle between the retention of a free market, capitalistic democratic society and the establishment of a Marist/communist state. Elect Obama and the Republic will disintegrate.
All Democrats may not be socialists or Marxists but they are “true believers” who are so obsessed with the thought of total power that they are willing to sell their souls to the devil . . . or anyone else that can give them what they desire.
What makes me a conservative, among many things, is a sense of history. Not the short term, liberal memory of history that starts with their first joint in the 60’s, but rather a view of millennium.; governments once thought invincible; nations that thought they would last forever…
Voting for Obama because you marched in the 60’s and want to “feel good” about a black guy in office no matter his plan, with no attempt to look at the long term picture, is just foolish.

Keltec P3AT. Small, easy to conceal, sufficient stopping power and usually less than $300.
After McCain and Palin have won I think we need to collectively petition John to charge Sarah the with the specific task of organizing a national dialogue to fully reveiew and evaluate the scientific basis for and the extent of the concept that ‘humans cause global warming’.
Sarah is the only one in the campaign to give a scientifically correct response when she approached the conclusion that WE SIMPLY DO NOT KNOW HOW MUCH humans contribute to global warming and that it could be 99% or it could be less than 1%.
The liberals jumped all over her for that but I was VERY heartened to hear her say it and hope that all people with a background in SCIENCE feel the same way.
The most recent IPCC summary stated that humans VERY LIKELY contributed to global warming - but they NEVER indicated HOW MUCH! Hey, it’s a scientifically CORRECT statement to declare that spitting in the ocean very likely contributes to a rise in sea level.
And regardless of how much or how little our GHG emissions contribute ‘global warming’, from 100% to nil, if that is true then what about those TERMITES who contribute MORE GHG than we do? That’s right, TERMITES ALONE emit more GHG than human fossil fuel combustion! Does the word INSIGNIFICANT mean anything to the moonbats?
In New Zeland, the environazis have a firm grip on the country. They have coal down there but are about to shut down the coal power stations due to eviromental concerns. These same environazis refuse to let anything to be built to replace said stations. Result? Rooling blackouts during last winter. (And yes the environazis did complain) Now New Zealand in the area of the blackouts doesn’t get to the freezing point, but this is where we are heading under obama and we do.
happyscrapper…. ah not to worry. My question is how Minnesotans consistently entertain and vote in whiny nasal voiced nimrods all the time to office, the latest being Al Frankenstein. How does a Minnesotan even think for a nano second this is a good thing?…. I’m a transplant from PA so I’m continually amazed.
Wasted post, watershed. We conservatives knew we were in trouble when the MSM decided to completely decouple from objectivity.
Everything else that you wrote is wrong.
He’s going after the agricultural industry as well. Nothing or no one is safe. More here.
I pray you are wrong about Franken being voted in. It was heartening to see the Star and Sickle actually endorse Coleman. I am no big fan of Coleman, but Franken? OMG! I’m envisioning a Congress full of creepy, left-wing nutjobs who have no morals, swear like drunken sailors, lie, cheat, take bribes. This could end up being the most corrupt congress in U.S. history. Oh wait…we have that now! One problem the Republican have is, too few good candidates!!! Where are they all?? The next four years MUST be a re-tooling of the republican party and get it back on track. Our platform has been so diluted, we are no longer republican, but centrist democrats. Drastic changes are needed if we are to survive.
I sure wish this kind of information had come out sooner, when we had time to get it out to the people. Thanks again, MSM. For those of the MSM who have been complicit in the cover-up of the truth, may you rot!
I couldn’t agree more.
Read this from the Ohio Coal Association:

He hates coal but waddayabet that BHO wants to mine more Naquadah?
The lateness of this is proof that we allowed ourselves to be comfortable with the idea that Hillary was a professional at digging up everything we needed.
yes, and take into consideration BHO’s push that people vote early.
Happyscrapper
I share your concerns. All I can say is, we can only get people out to vote and vote ourselves, then let God handle the rest. I’m an election judge so I will be busy tomorrow and I will be SO vigilant.
