Inside Big Coal's Big Lies

submitted by Throbbin

1 decade 5 years 11 months 2 weeks ago

Don Blankenship is the President & CEO of Massey Energy Corp., the 4th largest coal company in the United States.

This video is a collection of highlights from a speech he made to the Tug Valley Mining Institute in West Virginia. He starts by proclaiming his "beliefs" about climate change and how its just a cycle.

He also says that people who disagree with him are communists and atheists - because God and capitalism make him right apparently.

This guy takes on Pelosi, Reid, Gore, and other "Greeniacs" - "they're all crazy, absolutely crazy."

(The sift should open up a Fred Flinstone channel - just for people like this guy.)

Moving this video to Throbbin's personal queue. It failed to receive enough votes to get sifted up to the front page within 2 days.

Selfish asshole. He screwed over his own workers, The health of the people his mines operate in, the environment as a whole, and within the process corrupted judiciaries to do his bidding.
