It is time to fire up the Tea Party protest machine and take this country back!

Wait till they see what this does next summer to the large cities. Most large cities are Democratic strongholds. Boston, NYC, Philly etc...a hot summer with no electric will be an awakening. Those with electric won't be able to afford it.

If you think Obummers poll numbers are low now, wait till people are sitting in dark cold houses as these blackouts take effect. I don’t see how he runs again. LBJ ‘68.

“...will cost utilities up to $129 billion.”
No it won’t. But our rates will go up.

It’s going to be a hoot watching the progressive liberal bastards looking for a place to plug in their Voltswagens. LOL!

Time for Sen. Joe Manchin to switch parties.

This proves that Obama will definitely have riots going on next year at the height of the primary season as this article states,
Obama Sets Up America for Helter Skelter 2012 Summer. Obama wants a race war and he is doing everything he can do to turn blacks against rich white people.
The problem is blacks think all white people are richer and better off than them. So they will do what they have been doing this past dumber. Attacking white people all over the country in these cities that will be cooking with to power to run ACs.

What does the coal miner Union have to say about this? Surely, if who don't have coal-plants, we don't need coal, or the miners, or the businesses and communities that depend upon them...
No comments from Sen. Jay Rockefeller, or Sen. Joe Manchin?

Why the surprise...both Biden and Obama promised to bankrupt the coal industry during the elections. We need some of those Chinese “clean coal” plants here in the US.

Thousands of unemployed waited overnight, camping out in their business suits and office heels and braving the tormenting heat in Atlanta to stand in line for a job fair Thursday. Authorities treated 20 people for heat exhaustion as they struggled to keep the line moving and get people moved inside.
I don't know about interracial fighting. This is a thousand Blacks that showed up for a For The Peoples job fair this week. I think that Obummer has a bigger problem on his hands than he knows. As it is going. he will have Blacks, Whites, Hispanics, Jews and Eskimos in a common cause to get rid of him.

That's the whole idea. The inner city folk are expected to riot and burn baby burn.
Obama WANTS to destroy this country, the sooner you understand that, the sooner you will understand everything that has happened under his "leadership".

See everything our beloved President is doing to make our lives better. However, I think I will just stay here in Southeast Asia enjoying my air-conditioning and generally civilized life. Besides, my blood pressure is much improved by not seeing my leader on TV every thirty seconds.

I understand what Obummer and his cadre of radical Communists are trying to do. I just don’t see any evidence that he and the crew are competent enough to do it. This Regime is the stupidest bunch of losers I have ever seen. There will be no insurrection. Just a very disgraced President being thrown out of office. After seeing the ‘10 midterm, I have faith that the American people will do the right.
