I have been doing a lot of family history research in eastern Ohio. I see lots (and I do mean lots) of signs that state “Stop the war on coal. Fire Obama!” All over eastern Ohio.
I am not at all sure that Ohio is a “toss-up” state. This is a huge issue in this part of the country.
The government is establishing 17 new “solar energy zones” on 285,000 acres in six states: California, Nevada, Arizona, Utah, Colorado and New Mexico. More than half of the land — 153,627 acres — is in Southern California….This is insane. Also note the huge long-term ecohazard and clean up costs of solar farms, and this aspect is presented here. An excerpt:
Billions and billions [of $] and we’ve ended up with pretty much nothing. Actually, that’s not quite correct. What we will have, within a couple of decades, is a clean up job that’ll make Chernobyl look like a training day. As the vast arrays of panels age, they’ll crack and contaminate the topsoil with poisonous chemical particles. Take a careful look at the photo below [see thepointmen link above], because that’s what we’ll have to pay to detoxify, and make no mistake, we’ll be the ones paying, despite a few of the companies installing these panels having given undertakings to dispose of the panels at the end of their service life. The hard-nosed investor in me reckons they’ll be safely bankrupt by the time any such expensive undertakings have to be honored.
Having just spent a few days in West Virginia, I can tell you that the coal industry is fighting back.
The people can see that the emperor has no clothes.
OHIO COAL MINERS ARE THE SWIFT BOAT VETS OF 2012!!!
Note to coal miners- you can effectively shut the commie up on Nov 6, by voting him out!
This country has a 300 year supply of coal and yet Rats want to shut the industry down.I guess the tree worshipers give more than the coal companies.
I hope this video will be a commercial like Swiftboaters was, otherwise, it’s just the already informed like us who will see it.
It would be beneficial to tie in the brain dead coal industry in Pennsylvania who somehow still favors 0bummer.
They don’t call him “LieBama” for nothing, folks!
