Coal is the backbone of our power supply in this country, and Obama can only intend to weaken us by destroying that. We're still mining coal now, but we are shipping it to China by boat! China likes our coal enough that they are willing to pay the shipping cost. |

| Anonymous Coward User ID: 24811937 United States10/08/2012 07:28 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Major pisser for me about Obama & coal too. Those coal mines and coal plants are in some of the most economically depressed areas of our country and the people need the jobs and the electricity. Using EPA regulations to shut them down over some stupid cap and trade carbon tax derivative trading scheme is not only anti-American it lacks common sense. I support Romney, but neo-con rule and Israeli ass kissing makes me sick of both sides. |

He has a company in sinking Spain that is going to count the votes, and they will report that stinky BO wins not matter how big a landslide Romney wins by. This is why the Associated Press just stated that they will not do exit polls in 19 states. For if they did, the cheating would be obvious. Now, without the exit polls, the votes that Spain counts will show BO as the winner; and there is nothing anybody can do about it but start a civil war. Don't get caught with your panties down.

I meter primary and secondary lines for our customers. So thanks for keeping the plants up and running. The thing that pisses me off about my union (IBEW) is they always promote Democrats and support them with my union dues. If ever there was a war waged against our jobs it is now and by the very people who we are lead to support. My fellow workers see past the b.s. Thank God.

| anonanon User ID: 4148733 United States10/08/2012 08:56 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | The only union workers that might have had some gains from Obama are the auto workers. The rest are mostly out of jobs with no jobs in sight. People need and want full time work and all he talks about are the part time jobs that people have been getting this year. It takes two or even three part time jobs just to provide the bare minimum for a family. Thanks to his no drilling policies, the price of a gallon of gas is going through the roof along with the price of everything we use that gets trucked in anywhere. So we can all expect the price of all foods and household necessities to rise every week as well. Don't know if Romney can do better, but at least he does know something about running a business and keeping people employed. |
