So when someone buys an electric/hybrid car and then plugs it in to charge it, is he or is he not using electricity that was produced mainly by burning coal?

WTF is so hard to understand about the inefficiency of rechargeable batteries?

Obama hates coal but loves electric cars. Makes no sense whatsoever.

—The Left ignores that inconvenient truth, and believes that windmills and solar will somehow solve the problem. Consequences be damned.

You don’t understand.

Electric cars aren’t for driving. They’re for parking in the driveway to look pretty while you run off to catch a Chinese made bullet train so you can be a half hour late to work every morning.
