Wind, solar and wave generators will be the answer, and perhaps the coal workers will be able to get jobs making and installing these new wave of cleaner renewable energy.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12703782.post-13327554222131804822008-11-03T09:21:00.000-05:002008-11-03T09:21:00.000-05:00This has leaked all over. Coal stocks are down in pre-market trading.

If that is true, then where did all the stuff on the United Mine Workers website come from trashing McCain's position on clean coal?Gary R.

It's filled with anti-McCain tirades and misrepresentations about his support for clean coal technology. Any union member with any common sense would be shaking their heads at their leadership's lack of objective guidance on the candidates.Gary R.

Obama won't be able to tell India and China not to use coal for electricity. The coal industry will suffer, but it will still be in business, shipping container loads full of coal to other countries. So while India and China step into the industrial world, the US will take a step back into the pre-industrial world under Obama. Wonder how long before the people get sick of the rolling, constant blackouts?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12703782.post-32446689985853938262008-11-03T02:05:00.000-05:002008-11-03T02:05:00.000-05:00No problem, ObaMAMAMAMAMA will provide clean, new jobs for all after he throws a few thousand dirty miners under the bus.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12703782.post-32623871338691370502008-11-03T01:29:00.000-05:002008-11-03T01:29:00.000-05:00PUMA + COALGATE = OBAMA RIPTedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04011502155494655727noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12703782.post-39069000302655900692008-11-02T23:23:00.000-05:002008-11-02T23:23:00.000-05:00I'd love to know what the miners' union has to say about the subject.Mike Kolehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17573721231319244630noreply@blogger.com
