Just why do they think that President Clean Coal is going to make any form of "change"
to the established US policy with regard to climate talking shops?

President "Lets keep removing the tops of mountains"?
President "Frack wherever you want for gas"?
President "Fossil Fuel Exports are vital for the economy"?

WTF have those "officials" been smoking?
