More on what the UMWA is telling its members...

Obama talks about coal Barack Obama is on record supporting the development of clean coal technology in the United States.

Note to the rank-and-file: That's gonna be hard to do when the coal companies are kaput.

I am not surprised that the United Mine Workers endorses Barack Obama.

I have always felt that unions are the most hypocritical, destructive forces in American industry.

Unions literally grab the employers and shake them upside down using threats, coercion, lies, negative publicity and even outright violence.

They do not care one single whit about the well being of the company, nor do they even care about the future of the workers. And this goes for the union workers who are near retirement.

They think nothing of bankrupting a company just so they can get a few more benefits in their outlandish pensions. All one has to do is look at the UAW pensions as proof. So they screw every young employee and every future employee by driving the company out of business.

So much for the socialist shills who all preach that we should be our brother’s keepers. Like Obama, that is great as long as it is YOUR brother and not his that they speak of. I hate unions with a passion.

I just emailed them to let them know what O is planning for them.
