Hillary Clinton campaigned in West Virginia and Kentucky today. She made a big point about expressing her concern for the people engaged in coal production who are losing their jobs as the market for that product declines. I guess I'm showing my age, but if I had been there to hear Hillary's words, I would have been looking around to try to see Rod Serling making the announcement that we had entered the Twilight Zone. The idea that Hillary cares about the people mining coal is crazy. Just a few months ago, Hillary bragged about how all those coal companies would be put out of business and the workers would lose their jobs. She bragged how she supported that result in order to reduce carbon emissions and fight global warming. Now that those miners are about to vote in West Virginia, Hillary is claiming to be on the other side of the fight.
In 2004, John Kerry famously said that he was for a bill before he was against it (or the opposite, I don't remember.) It showed that Kerry would flip flop on important issues and was indecisive. Today, Hillary's switch does not show any indecisiveness. It's just pure dishonesty. No sane person in West Virginia could possible believe that Hillary cares one bit about the miners and their families. For Hillary, the important thing is the votes and contributions of the global warming activists. Even for a consummate liar like Clinton, her pitch today was dishonest.
