Thanks mind-reader, the mooching done by Republicans is good because they are Republicans, mooching by Dems is bad because they are Dems. Thanks for the lessons in logic, you have a job waiting for you at unskewedpolls.com
No dumb shit. THINK before you post. Odumbo was in there since 2009. Eastern KY coal mining employment is DOWN 42% since 2011. Odumbo gets 100% of the 'credit' for that. Look at the shit jobs created since the Community Organizer got to DC .... basically low paying jobs and now he wants to jack up min wage by 40% or so. These are the jobs he helped create .. and now he realizes how crappy they were.
Actually, I have to take the blame for the decline of the coal industry. I'm not defending Obama, I'm just saying. It was a business decision.
Give me hard facts, I don't want your spin. Last time you tried to post a source, it ended up destroying your own claims.
You obviously know nothing about mining and KY. KY has not seen any increase in coal mining employment since Odumbo has been in office. Coal mining employment increased from 2000-2006 based on statistics. Since Obama took office it's declined.
I already posted FACTS .. something you run away from. The decrease in coal mining employment in Kentucky in 2013 has been a long-term trend, with employment falling by about 13% from 2008-2012. Obama years!!
You posted this ""Eastern Kentucky, in particular, has been hard hit by the weak market conditions for Central Appalachian coal. "" I looked up 'Obama' in the dictionary and it doesn't say anything about 'weak market conditions', I blame the liberal education propaganda.
