Obama Against Coal

Now I'm a nuclear guy myself, mostly because I think that coal would be better used as a liquid fuel. However, with the regulatory and production hurdles of nuclear reactors, as our demand for electricity increases we basically have the option of more gas or coal fired plants.

Now, Joe Biden said a couple months ago that an Obama administration would not support the construction of more coal plants in this country (ht: marks @ RedState).



I believe that this did not go down well with certain states that have a lot of coal production, thus, during the VP debate, Biden had to *ahem* clarify the position.



Now Gateway Pundit has come across a speech where Obama promises (to a San Francisco audience, again!) to "bankrupt coal".
