ATTN: Coal states Virginia , Ohio, Pennsylvania, Colorado, Indiana and more guess what Obama told San Francisco about you.
San Francisco Gate Interview January 17 2008
If the windmill malfunctions, somebody has to climb up and fix it. New ones aren’t that different from older ones.
Ooooooh. Now you made me think of Madelyn Albright. She’s eager to help Obama wreck the country.
Wonder why.
Obama has a Madonna crucifix behind him. It’s just more blasphemy. (pardon me while I cling to my religion while this fraud tries to buy this election).
I hope Bill Cunningham reads Drudge before tonight. He better.
That isn’t righteous wind! It’s hot air. He’s using AYERSPEAK again. Wind, water, nautical metaphors are ALL AYERSPEAK.

Fox was upset about the 3 newscaster thrown off the plane by Obama for Jet, Essence and a Documentary journalist...Bill expressed it on radio...let them see what Obama thinks of Coal industry, because Obama said he would do clean coal technology...and this says otherwise.
Factoids
* Coal provides America’s railroads with more traffic and revenue than any other commodity.
* A typical train car holds between 115 and 117 tons of coal.
* Wyoming is the largest coal-producing state.
* Coal accounts for half of the electricity use in the U.S.
* Coal costs less than any other major fossil fuel source.
* The world’s largest producers and consumers of coal are China, Poland, Russia, India and the United States.
* Total world consumption of marketed energy is projected to increase by 57 percent from 2004 to 2030.
* Coal’s share of total world energy use climbed from 25 percent in 2003 to 26 percent in 2004 and is expected to increase to 28 percent by 2030.
* America has more than 250 billion tons of recoverable coal reserves, the equivalent of 800 billion barrels of oil, more than three times Saudi Arabia’s proven oil reserves.
* Texas is the largest coal-consuming state in the U.S. and is the largest consumer of electricity.
* According to an electric power industry journal, 23 of the 25 power plants in the U.S. that have the lowest operating costs (and therefore provide power to their consumers at the lowest prices) are powered by coal.
* Today, America’s coal-based generating fleet is 70% cleaner (based upon regulated emissions per unit of energy produced) thanks, in part, to $50 billion invested in new technologies.
* Since 1970, the use of coal to generate electricity in the U.S. has nearly tripled in response to growing electricity demand.
* U.S. electricity demand continues to increase even as energy efficiency gains are made. Despite the fact that we are continuing to become more energy efficient, the U.S. Energy Information Administration projects that electricity demand will grow by 41% by 2030.
* Using coal to generate electricity is less than a 1/3 of the cost of other fuels.
* Intermittent energy resources like wind and solar are used for meeting peak energy demand because they are not always available. That is different from coal, which is used to provide “baseload” power — the constant, steady supply of electricity we depend upon throughout the day.
* America has more than 200 years of available coal reserves.

Glenn Beck’s from Pennsylvania. His head will explode tomorrow - again.
He’s too cool for coal.
Just heard the tail end of the McCain speech, he mentioned it but very quickly, he said just over a year ago, Obama in an interview said he was NOT a coal booster, well I’m a coal booster and then McCain rattled off what he will do for clean coal.
Unless I missed more earlier in the speech, who is writing his speeches, he needs to say that Obama mentioned bankrupting the industry, that Obama says one thing to your face and another to the San Francisco Chronicle, and that Obama admits to lying because coal is an ideological issue that can be used against him.
What am I missing?
New soundbite: OBAMA Too cool for coal.
Thank you.
Do you listen to John Batchelor as well. Sunday night radio on WABC 770 AM NY, they are on back to back.
Batchelor usually has an entertaining show, a little conspiratorial but he always gives interesting insights. I wonder if he will have any hopeful McCain angles tonight.
McCain’s trying to stay positive so he isn’t falsely accused of negative attacks. Now Sarah’s up in Marietta, OH She finished with God Bless America.
LOL. Good one! Or as the folks at American Thinker put it...
Change we can freeze to death by...
Are they trying to sabotage their own industry?

The UMW’s industry is unionism not coal.
Most coal folks don’t belong to it nowadays, and now the UMW represents a lot of civil servants.
No Batchelor in Tampa Bay market but I’ve heard him on line before Cunningham. I listened on line during the playoffs and series cuz our local am station was doing all Rays games, no talk shows. Is that a British accent or what?
