WHAT A FRIGGIN CROCK !

If that were true, then all this administration would have to do is to simply drive a harder bargain when mineral leases were auctioned off. -- HA!

The sole and only reason this administration is deliberately wrecking the coal industry, and so many other industries too, is because he HATES private industry in general, and anyone who sullies himself with any money from it - at all. It's his extremist one-sided ideology that is the problem!

Listen to what he actually says sometime - he doesn't try to hide any of it. He really believes in his own bull. Indeed, that HATE is completely ideologically based! And because yours and my wages, and our retirements come from just that industry; make no mistake about it, that HATE includes you and me too, Pops!

Marxists always have HATED private enterprise; and also hated, have been the middle class (classist slurs are used), all religions, armed citizenry, the U.S. Constitution (which he says just gets in the way), and even democratically elected representatives of the people. And he is no exception - having so vociferously spoken against all these so often - and so recently too. And now adding bullying threats to the mix - to just set aside congress and to do whatever he pleases without them.

Any President who seems to think that he was elected dictator; is who needs to be more "Pro-American", and more pro Constitution, and just plain more pro rule-of-law. . . . .

In America, presidents do not get to do as they please, without a favorable vote from the elected representatives of the people. A pro-American President would understand that and not let his own ideology get in the way. . . . .
