This is just cruel.

I have a few friends who live in West Virginia who said they would have voted for Obama, but all the scare tactics being flung around that state by the Coal Executives made them change their minds. They are terrified that the state will sink due to massive layoffs.

It's just sad how these people get away with this crap..they don't care about their workers, they only care about money.
