Totalitarian regimes often require ostensibly independent action. An example would be the maniacal students who went wild during China's Cultural Revolution, inflicting violence on those deemed insufficiently fanatical in their devotion to communism. Similar tactics will be required to push through the global warming agenda, which will entail radically restricting our liberty and lowering our standard of living in the name of a "crisis" that does not exist.
Environmentalist demagogue Al Gore has been trying to egg on the sort of moonbat hooligans who riot at WTO conferences to attack power plants that use one of our most precious yet abundant resources, coal. His rallying cry has been heeded. Capitol Climate Action, planned for March 2, will protest the existence of a coal plant in DC. Participants are encouraged to impersonate normal Americans by wearing their "Sunday best" meaning they will make every effort to find matching shoes.
Leftists target coal not because it oppresses the polar bears, but because it produces 56% of our electricity. The only viable alternatives are oil which we must import mostly from hostile regimes because Democrats severely restrict drilling in our own country and nuclear which liberals also resist tooth and nail.
Not even Al Gore thinks windmills and pixie dust can meet our energy needs. The idea is to cripple the economy and make us helpless, the better to soften us up for socialism.
Here's global warming profiteer James Hansen a known fraud who nonetheless holds a top position in the federal bureaucracy encouraging punks to use strong-arm tactics to advance the government's goal of banning coal:

The protest will be pure theater; these totalitarians are not protesting against the government, but on its behalf against what remains of our freedom. If you doubt Chairman Zero is on the same page, here he is promising to exploit the global warming farce to bankrupt coal plants:

Before long you'll flip the switch and the lights won't come on. You'll know whom to thank.
If the coal plant feeds electricity to Congress and the WH, I say turning it off for a month or so could prove instructive to the residents and occupants of DC.
Looking a lot like one of those Soros funded orange revolutions all around.
Any chance this is planned for St. Paddy's Day?
I think this is going to get ugly fast.
Choking the economy with taxes AND restricting it's blood (affordable energy) will bring on anarchy before this is over......in my opinion.
For all the government spies, I am not advocating. I am just reflecting on the facts and their inevitable consequences. Lets face it, something will give at some point.
What the heck?
Hansen testified for the defense in the trial of 6 activists in England that did L30k damage to a coal fired power plant. The defense was that damaging the plant was justified because of the damage the power plant was doing to the planet.
They won.

That’s how bad it will get here also. Hansen is dangerous.
What you use to git your car off your floor jack handle if you took your 2x4 to town? :-)
HOWEVER, no juice to power up Starbuck’s, or to recharge the cell phone, Blackberry, and iPod? It will be Shaun of the Dead Type I zombie CHAOS! (/s)
Imagining DC without electricity is not a comforting thought. Imagining DC without power once warm weather gets here is downright frightening. Obviously, these anarchists--and they are indeed anarchists--have not thought this thing through. Or maybe they have? I see no good in this.
Well if all these global warming alarmists and their followers killed themselves we wouldn’t need so many coal plants.
Oh well, we can hope!
Of course, their aim is to kill off all of us....
Ping to the mob the coal plant thread.

To show the trust fund kids what hooligans really look like?
Perfect time to shut down the plant for six months and convert all analog instrumentation to digital, during the HOT, HOT summer!
