THE BIG LIES OF BIG COAL: DON BLANKENSHIP SPEAKS

[Thejbirdy]

This guy is a heartless pig.....pure and simple.

[Ms2blackcats]

I have the perfect person for this idiot Casey Anthony!

[Astrodan2600]

He is the war lord of the west virginia coal fields let put a black bandana around his head  of course he need to roll up his shirt sleeves and unbutton the shirt ! then he came crawl up on his desk and take his fountain pen and yell "say hello to my little friend!" what a disgrace to West Virginia he is and I do apologize to West Virginia I know it wasn't it's fault for this mutant ego maniac to own it.

[js8533]

he sucks as a public speaker

+ he is an asshole and has no facts to back up his bogus claims. his

soul is as black as the coal he mines.

check out the article in Rolling Stones about him.

[mactekvic]

An exercise in "Baffle them with bullshit". Oh, we haven't seen the last of this moron, he has too much money from working his 'magic' in Appalachia for too long. The only atheist in the room there is Blankenship. The only communist actively seeking centralized power is Blankenship.

[samfilmkid]

and good riddance to you ya fat redneck sunvabitch

[MyMistyGirl]

Al Gore and Nancey Pelosi don't say that climate change is occuring, climate scientist say it is occuring. Plus any idiot can see the difference in satallite photos, the artic ice has shrunk significantly. There's a special place in hell for this person who is so greedy as to disregard the lives of others and pollute our planet by blowing the top off mountains. He says it's his God given right, but I doubt if God would be happy about him distroying this world the He created.

[goodchaun]

low life, piece of shit. great articulate, educated way of speaking... theyre totally wrong, theyre all crazy. very scientific. greeniacs. bootin will cut your power off. i cant even understand you through your retarded hick accent. comparing scientists to osama bin laden. wow. you are a fucking retard

[crutmauler]

Blankenship is a brave American HERO!

You fucking global; warming moonbats are a bunch of brainwashed commie/pinko idiots.

[adamsb33]

YOU'RE A FAGGOT BLANKENSHIP. HAVE A GOOD DAY YOU PRICK. KEEP EATIN THOSE BIG MAC PANCAKES EVERY MORNING YOU FAT HICK BUM. THAT'S ALL.

[metrozebra]

A friggen hillbilly that runs a coal company is against clean air....no surprise.

[oXWOLFBAINXo]

I like how he calls out people that disagree with him....if i was told that i was going to meet with him i would replace his water he would be drinking with water from polluted mines. ps i live in wv. This guy looks like hitler to me

[mmmmarcy]

Why is Blankenship not behind bars yet for multiple negligent homicide? He boasts that he never had any intention of fulfilling safety requirements. He spends a couple of million a year fighting regulations in court instead of improving safety conditions. He makes fun of politicians who "get emotional" when there is a disaster and "pass all kinds of regulations." This man is a dangerous sociopathic murderer.

[gracezchen35]

Don Blankenship is Jewish and interested in only making money.

Don Blankenship has an Israeli passport like all American Jews and will escape to Israel to avoid prosecution in the US.

Israel does not extradite its "citizens" - which under the "Law of Return" is any Jew, anywhere in the world.

Don Blankenship is the same as Lloyd Blankfein (Owner of Goldman Sachs) - Jews ripping off America.

[WhiteAfricanAmericn]

@gracezchen35 I know Lloyd Blankfein is Jewish, but I don't believe this guy is.

[coal60]

@WhiteAfricanAmericn He's not, gracezchen35 is just trying to push his nazi agenda and distort the issue. And that is, Blankenship is a greedy, evil bastard who wouldn't get a way with what he does if his workers would join with their union brothers. He knows that and that's the ONLY thing that scares him..

[miknwv]

a recent study by scientists has concluded that Don Blankenship is a bastard coated bastard with a creamy bastard filling inside

[Exiles800]

What an evil right-wing pig. If you listen towards the end he fails to be honest that all the offenses committed by the rest of the world he cites as offenses are things he's pushing for here. His logic is evil. He's a troglodite denier unfraid of his evil conflict of interest and lack of concern. American freedom is being abused by these pigs. When he gets to the lava pool at the end of his mine shaft he'll be reaching his end.

[ghordan]

Wow, India is a Socialist nation now. Hahaha.

[PlayT0E]

Lies and scare tactics .. typical program to get what he wants.

[ert309]

If anyone has not read Upton Sinclair's " The Jungle", I urge you to this read this book.. Like meatpacking owners back then, Blankenship has No and Zero regard in deaths to employees of his, and they are just a blip in putting out money.

[carlgt1]

fat southern right-wing white guys --- they've been screwing up the USA for over 200 years!

[coal60]

He buys off the courts but he can't buy off the UNION. UMWA the only way. Brothers, make the call for your family, for your country, for your life. "UNITED" Mine Workers of America.

[DIVDRIAN]

Great guy,speaking his mind and the truth. A good teacher,a good role model. Self reliance is the way to go.

[carlgt1]

@DIVDRIAN

haha, yeah right, Jesus would like this guy, he just killed 25 coal miners because he lobbied & refused to follow any safety regulations...

he'll hopefully burn in hell someday, along with most RepugliKKKans.....

[ashelycali]

@carlgt1 You don't know what you are talking about. All you pussies setting at home with your computers(powered by coal), writing shit and know nothing about coal mining.

[tutorturtle]

Could some point out which were the actual lies?

Other than his "opinion" on religion, which can't be judged as true or false, don't see what he said that was a lie.

He never speaks to the safety of his mining operations; which is the only topic that should be discussed right now.

For good or ill, we are married to coal for the foreseeable future, unless everyone reading this page shuts off their computers, unplugs their TV's and refrigerators and goes back to living in the horse-n-buggy days

[sweetbread]

what's his beef with atheists?

[flyingfishsurf]

non-compliance citations are not political. however, 29 dead miners IS a harsh reality. where have i seen that moustache before?

[da0217]

This guy makes me sick. Just fucking sick. I want to vomit. I mean he just comes of as such a terrible human being, it's not real.

[artvandelay3911]

Now he's a murderer too. This man owns the coal mine that killed so far 19 people on April 5. Why? His coal mine had 57 safety violation in the month of March 2010. I think he needs to quit worrying about climate change being real or not and start lawyering up. Some relatives of the people he just murdered are going to be looking for a big payout.

[slickrickdarula]

ty for posting this video

he digs his grave by himself

go check other videos on this scumbug

[onebadblueoval69]

To the fucking retard who wrote the last comment. If you dont like what we do by mining coal . Feel free to have your electric turned off you unappreciative fuck. Your worried about whimsical bullshit . If you dont like us mining coal get you some solar panels .. Your sorry ass cant afford them see my point. Thank you , you sorry prick go to hell

[artvandelay3911]

@onebadblueoval69 only retard here is you you fucking piece of shit. You have the brain of a dickless redneck. DAMN!!! That felt good. Now I know why in your post you acted like a twelve year old.

[JakeUpMa]

why the fuck would a coal CEO believe in climate change? i would rather listen to someone who has some science background. fuck this asshole for blowing holes in my state and claiming its for the good of the country.

[isawanangel2]

@JakeUpMa i agree, they dont want to pay to clean up the mess, it's called the CLEAN AIR ACT

[MrBarryElliott]

Truth is not only violated by falsehood, It is equally outraged by falsehood. I applaude Don Blankenship for his opinions and his tenacity in taking a stand!

[integral]

@MrBarryElliott You are joking of course. Nobody could be stupid enough to believe this swine's lies. Well unless of course one has had one's brain filled with holes by years of watching Fox nooze maybe.

[ZackHamel07]

i am an 18 year old kid from nothern ny. i hope that somebody stops him from trying to influence the public before you hurt our country more. he is one of the most "crazy" people out there. im willing to bet that the reason china hasnt followed us on our "green ideas" is because it takes approximately 1 calorie of fossil fuels to make 1 calorie of ethanol from corn. the other ideas arent much better. the true future is in solar energy, but even so, these attempt are better than your ideas

[rearvumirr]

"The only thing melting in this country that matters is our financial system and our economy"? - This coming from a man with two of WV's Supreme Court Justices in his pocket? Oh that's rich!

[eastwood203]

It took millions of years to create our beautiful, ancient mountains and only seconds to destroy. Once destroyed, we'll never have them back. The people responsible for this should be forced to live in these lifeless craters they're creating.

[jojococoa]

beyond if you don't "believe" in global warming or climate change. (you either accept it as fact or don't there is no faith required) if you are christian, as many of these dolts claim to be, should we be stewards of our planet? how much is it gonna hurt your business if you just care for the environment? in the long run its gonna help your business.

[lowbwoody]

This guy is the anti-christ if there is ever to be one...read "Coal River" for the real scoop on this crook.

[hess400]

Yeah this man's an ass but i still agree with him. The only thing in a melt down is the ecconomie so it really comes between two choices, go back to liveing like A damn caveman or continue as we are. Im sorry but its just a fact that coal business is big money and money = ecconomie so all you nerdy a** treehugers need to go home and get a gun and shoot yourself in the head. I would rather feed my kids then hunch on on a G. D. Tree all F***** day, get a life.

[lowbwoody]

...I do have a life, I feed my family and three kids and pay their college tuitions ( something you obviously missed out on ) and at the same time...I don't burn needless energy, I live sustainably as possible, recycle, and treat my enviroment with a reverent respect and if that makes me 'treehuger"..( check your spelling please) than I guess that's what I am. And if knowing how to spell big words like Economy and Living makes me a nerd...well so beit. Thanks for the insight Hess..

[Snipedanwo]

Viva Tomato Revolution !

[Sustainbrain]

how ironic is it that he is the head of a coal company. He contradicts himself so bad. Do YOU expect some jerk that makes so much money off of coal to speak out about pollution?...NO. He supports the republicans because they support big business, notice how he attacks democrats. I have seen the how disgusting mountain top removal is first hand. but dons gotta make his money...HIS MONEY not yours.

[nursepph69]

I'll bet he voted for Barack Obama......LOL

[Snipedanwo]

You mean Barry Sorrowetto ? Born in Kenya

Look it up

[rk4642]

A TRUE WHOREMONGER WHO MAKES US ALL SICK!!!!! HE SITS IN A MULTIMILLION DOLLAR MANSION IN WILLIAMSON LOOKING DOWN ON US AS IF WE ARE MERE PEASENTS! HE IS AS CLOSE TO GOD AS HE WILL EVER GET UP ON THAT MOUNTAIN! i WATCHED HIM IN STARTERS WHICH IS A LOCAL PUB ONE DAY AND ALL THE LITTLE WHORES WOULD RUN UP TP HIM AS IF HE WERE BRAD PITT,SORRY BRAD!!!! HE DOES NOT GIVE ONE SHIT ABOUT THE MINERS HERE!! nOR DOES HE GIVE A SHIT ABOUT ANYONE.

[wprange]

This man has bought himself a State Supreme Court justice (Brent D. Benjamin) and vacationed with Chief Justice Elliott Maynard in Monte Carlo.

Blankenstein had a case before the court and if he had lost that, it would cost him 50 Million. With the help of these two justices he won the case.

There is no justice anymore in the US, you just buy it if you've got the money

[bruceboxfan4861]

He's such an ASSHOLE! One day, he will meet his maker... and he wont be able to bribe his way in...

[constructioncartoons]

coal doesn't lie. (just every once in a while)

the environMENTALists are the real nuts.

[ijtuimm]

Unreal on so many levels. Great reason to short Massey - a company led by someone so out of touch with reality (real reality, and political reality) can't lead a company anywhere good.

Fails to acknowledge China is following us exactly by building dirty coal plants in its early development.

When everyone else seems crazy, its not everyone else, it's you.

[treker2379]

FUCK YOU, YOU FUCKING RETARD!

[MercuryShining]

What a bunch of self-serving, self-righeous pricks.

[brovic777]

This guy probably still believes the world is flat and that dinosaurs were here 4000 years ago.

These Right-Wingers are the ones destroying America.

[Toji85]

If 20000 scientists study the cliamate for several decades and conclude there is a cliamate change, which qualification does he have to say he doesn't 'believe' in it? And there is no 'green poverty' in Europe. At least not in the same Europe I'm living in. And why does he hate atheists so much? This guy is crazy!

[webcelt]

He calls people "atheists" so he doesn't have to answer them. Same with "communists".

[Mangina9000]

@Toji85 " If 20000 scientists study the cliamate for several decades and conclude there is a cliamate change" There are a lot more than that. The agreement is virtually unilateral across the scientist spectrum. Of course there are people who are profiting from going against it and who are questioning various aspects of climate change, and there is no shortage of people who are "sort of" scientists (conservative economists, engineers, weather men, etc.) who are against it.

[philonetic]

@Toji85

Your AGW nonsense is easily refuted. C02 makes up 3% of the enhanced greenhouse effect, humans make 2.9% of that 3%. The total temperature change is near 2 degrees. So what is 0.00087% of 2 degrees? Because that's what humans are responsible for. Also anthropogenic c02 doesn't even reach the troposphere. Ice core charts show c02 follows temperature, not the other way around.

SCIENCE and MATH > your ignorance. Learn the difference between corporate review and non profit review.
