Democrat Joe Manchin is shocked - shocked! - that President Obama is waging a war on coal, and thereby a war on Americans. 

It's about control Joe, not what's the best for your neighbors and friends.  Plus, Obama said he would do this, and now you seem surprised that he actually is

In Joe's defense, Obama is a different kind of politician than what we have seen before. He is a radical Ideologue, willing to pursue policy purely because it is something that he thinks must be done, not because it will help anyone.  I recall in the 08 election he was being interviewed about some tax hike he was advocating, and when it was pointed out that the hike would actually bring in less money to the government, he responded that that didn't matter, because the hike made things more fair.

So enjoy the destruction of your state's economy, Mr. Manchin, because although it will impoverish virtually everyone, it's both good for the environment and it's fair.

Related: coal produces 42 to 44% of electricity in the U.S., so Obama will have to find some other source of power to charge up all those Chevy Volts he is making GM produce.
