Just like Obama's plan to eradicate 123,000 Lockheed-Martin and contract jobs in the defense industry after the election (covered yesterday, scroll down), he's going to make you bend over and take it, too.

http://www.redstate.com/jasonahart/2012/11/01/epa-regulations-wreak-havoc-on-ohio-coal-electric-companies/
IF YOUR POWER PLANTS WERE COAL FED, YOU'D HAVE HEAT TONIGHT. IF YOU'RE A COAL MINER OR DEPEND ON COAL FOR ELECTRICITY, YOU'D BETTER HOPE OBAMA DOESN'T WIN.
OBAMA AND THE EPA WANTS TO SHUT THE MINES.
Maybe he should stand on the Capitol done and huff and puff - part that water, and heat your homes with his hot air.
SEND HIM PACKING -

OBAMA: THE DEFENDER OF COAL, OIL, GAS AND ROMNEY RIGHTLY CALLS "FOUL"
http://cowboybyte.com/13778/obama-fashions-himself-as-a-defender-of-coal-oil-gas-romney-calls-foul/
The news the night of this second debate, which is posted somewhere here, was that Obama closed half of Alaska down to drilling.
He wants us energy dependent on foreign resources. We will then be almost completely controlled by the government.

WHO NEEDS A FEW BUCKS FOR THE LENGTH OF THE SWEETGRASS COUNTY FAIR IN MONTANA?
Thanks
again for your interest in our project, and your willingness to help us
out. If you would like to read more about our project, I will link you
to our website. http://www.countoncoalmontana.org/.
Like I said, yesterday, we are an organization that is advocating for the development of Montana's vast coal reserves. Coal development would mean tens of thousands of well-paying jobs for Montana in general and Eastern Montana in particular. It would also mean hundreds of millions of dollars in revenue for the state, both from the coal tax AND coal royalties. Also, money from those coal royalties goes into the School Trust Fund. The problem is that environmental groups and the current administration in Washington are strictly opposed to any further coal development in our state, and, through litigation and regulation are seeking to shut down the coal industry. Our presence at county fairs is to help raise awareness to the battle that is already occurring. It is very important that voters elect leaders who are pro-coal development, and that we begin to change the political landscape of Montana so that being anti-coal would receive that same response from voters as being anti-gun.
What I am looking for is someone to man a booth at the Sweetgrass County Fair.
We will pay between $10-15 an hour. Hours are flexible, though we would prefer that our person man the booth for the majority of the fair.
I will send them all of our info (signs, literature, etc.)
I will also send them reading materials to educate themselves on the issues, and I will personally give them some training via a conference call.
We will pay for all related expenses via an expense report that the employee can submit to me after the fair.

INTRODUCING A NEW CONTRIBUTOR AND AN ARTICLE ON GREEN VS OUR OWN ENERGY RESOURCES
Introducing another Yankee with a big conservative mouth. Let's call him "Mr.J". He has agreed to contribute to this blog. Thank you, Mr. J!
At the rate he's going, we should all invest in candles and candlesticks. Think how romantic our country will be as we slip back into th 18th century..

EDITORIAL: Obama Undermines Coal
It’s lights out for growing number of power plants
By THE WASHINGTON TIMES | The Washington Times | Monday, March 5, 2012
The genius of the free market is that it provides consumers with more for less. That principle is turned on its head in the Obama era, as Americans face the prospect of getting less for more when it comes to powering their homes and workplaces. In a poor economy, that’s bad news for folks who’ve already tightened their belts to the final hole.
Cheers went up last week from the self-proclaimed green lobby, including the Sierra Club and Greenpeace, as they reached a milestone in their quest to drive up the cost of America’s fossil fuels. On Feb. 29, two utility companies announced the shuttering of nine coal power plants in the East and Midwest. That sent the number of plants slated for deactivation since 2010 beyond the century mark to 106.
GenOn Energy said it would shutter seven coal plants and one oil-fired plant in Pennsylvania, Ohio and Illinois with a total generating capacity of 3,140 megawatts. Midwest Generation followed suit with an advisory that it would close two coal plants serving Chicago.
The shutdowns represent a victory for President Obama, who in a 2008 interview as a candidate signaled his intention to run the coal industry into the ground: “So if somebody wants to build a coal-powered plant, they can, it’s just that it will bankrupt them because they’re going to be charged a huge sum for all that greenhouse gas that’s emitted.”
The president has made good on his promise. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has squeezed coal producers in its campaign to halt carbon dioxide, the same “greenhouse gas” all animals produce when exhaling. In December, the agency announced new regulations limiting mercury emissions that will force many power plants out of business within four years.
The EPA estimates utilities across the country will need to shell out at least $9.4 billion in 2015 to meet its new mandate, but House Republicans put the true cost at $84 billion. Companies that stay in business will have to install expensive equipment that will drive up consumers’ monthly electric bills. The average retail price of electricity in America already has climbed 46 percent since 1997, says the U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA).
Cleaner-burning natural gas is touted as a viable substitute for coal but the transition can’t be completed overnight. In the meantime, the nation’s net electricity generation is falling, down 7.1 percent from 2010 to 2011, says the EIA. Demand for electricity is projected to rise by 35 percent by 2035.
Green-energy enthusiasts look to windmills, solar panels and vegetable oil to save the day, but these trendy energy sources combined generate less than 5 percent of the nation’s energy - despite billions in subsidies. The net result of this policy could be electricity shortfalls when usage peaks in the summer. The energy brain trust has a remedy: Millions of homes across the country have been equipped with “smart meters” that can be instructed to hold back the juice. Brownouts might dim the future as Americans in the Age of Obama learn to get by with less.
Remember, Crisis is the tool of the tyrant!...m

EPA'S SCARING YOU: GET READY FOR A WAVE OF COAL PLANT SHUTDOWNS
http://cowboybyte.com/380/getting-ready-for-a-wave-of-coal-plant-shutdowns/
That means a surge in energy costs to the consumer/taxpayer.
ELECT A CANDIDATE WHO HAS THE BALLS TO DISMANTLE THE EPA!
Its claws are poisoned with the filth of corruption and a death wish for our freedoms.

HE PROMISED! All of you in the coal industry - in the mines - he's got one plan for you.
Die.
Die of hunger, just "disappear", die of depression, die of anxiety.
It'll happen to the rest of us, too.
People will not listen or understand.
