Destroying the US energy industry is a sport for this Marxist.

Not one coal family should ever vote Democrat again. Obama and the EPA Gestapo are taking the food off their table.

Let me first say I don’t believe in this climate change crap, and frankly wouldn’t care even if it was true, because if it is true WE ARE NOT THE PROBLEM...countries like China are.

Government central planning for power plants is like government central planning for veteran’s health (VA).

The global warming stuff is irrelevant to me in these types of discussions.

I’ve just never understood why everyone isn’t outraged about companies polluting air and water that ends up harming America’s citizens and shortening our lives.

If a company gets caught knowingly dumping toxins into the air and/or water they should suffer enormous consequences.

Asthma is way up over the last 50 years years, although part of the blame for this must be placed on our overuse of antibacterial products, such as hand sanitizers.

We could have had nice superclean American coal to burn, but BJ Clinton took that offline in exchange for a campaign contribution.

Your source for this claim?

Obamacare is far and away a bigger health hazard to Americans than “climate change”..... too bad he’s not interested in doing away with that.

The US has the cleanest burning coal, best burn technology and massive power distribution infrastructure. Barry would like to louse this up like he’s done with our health care.

You have to give the radical leftist President the credit for pushing his stupid agenda ever forward. I wish we could get a conservative president who will push just as hard.

Well...the corn bit has harmed the feed market. I can’t even afford an occasional good cut of meat. Am reduced to buying beef they use for hamburg when it’s on sale.

OK!! Everybody pay attention!

Lesson for today:

1. The sun is 1,300,000 times as big as the earth.

2. The sun is a ball of fire that controls the climates of all its planets.

3. The earth is one of the sun’s planets.

4. The earth is a speck in comparison to the size of the sun.

5. Inhabitants of the earth are less than specks.

Study Question: How do less-than-specks in congress plan to control the sun?

Obama & the EPA are taking food off of EVERY ONE’s table. The carbon dioxide is a basic requirement for plants to grow.

You can’t fool Mother Nature.

I am still waiting for the “community organizers” who advocate that human activity is causing meaningful changes to the climate to show what the average climate is, and whether our present climate is below or above this average. But alas, there appears to be no appetite for this key metric.

This should not come as a surprise especially when it is recalled that the vast majority of demands, suggestions and recommendations that accompany what passes for climate science all rapidly converge on statism, collectivism and the destruction of personal liberal and the resulting suppression of prosperity. This madness is not science, it is a form of gaia worship. It is a shame that so many otherwise brilliant and supposedly secular people are so duped by the oldest religion in human experience.

I'm pretty sure Obama and his minions won't be affected in the slightest by higher electric bills.

The government doesn't eat its own cooking - but YOU do.

“Obama said the new guidelines would reduce smog and soot that threaten vulnerable populations such as the young and the aged and he said up to 100,000 asthma attacks and 2,100 heart attacks would be avoided in the first year the standards went into force”........But isn’t this the same guy who told us we could keep our current doctor & health insurance plan if we wanted?

Obama would have us believe that coal plants belch forth tons of black smoke blotting out the sun. Wait that is only true in China. US coal plants were cleaned up decades ago and Obama’s pollution boogy man is only due to CO2 “pollution” That is a none problem. More heinous lies from our emperor.
