Oh, and don’t forget the war on coal. A Utah coal company just announced that 102 miners will lose their jobs. Thanks, Obama. Thanks voters who gave Obama a second term. Thanks non-voters who are so proud that they “stuck to their principles.” I’m sure all of these people losing their jobs are very grateful.
