This prayer was read by the owner of Murray Energy right before he was
forced to lay people off due to Obami's attack on coal:

Dear Lord:

The American people have made their choice. They have decided that
America must change its course, away from the principals of our
Founders. And, away from the idea of individual freedom and individual
responsibility. Away from capitalism, economic responsibility, and
personal acceptance.

We are a Country in favor of redistribution, national weakness and
reduced standard of living and lower and lower levels of personal freedom.

My regret, Lord, is that our young people, including those in my own
family, never will know what America was like or might have been. They
will pay the price in their reduced standard of living and, most
especially, reduced freedom.

The takers outvoted the producers. In response to this, I have turned to
my Bible and in II Peter, Chapter 1, verses 4-9 it says, “To faith we
are to add goodness; to goodness, knowledge; to knowledge, self control;
to self control, perseverance; to perseverance, godliness; to godliness,
kindness; to brotherly kindness, love.”

Lord, please forgive me and anyone with me in Murray Energy Corp. for
the decisions that we are now forced to make to preserve the very
existence of any of the enterprises that you have helped us build. We
ask for your guidance in this drastic time with the drastic decisions
that will be made to have any hope of our survival as an American
business enterprise.

Amen.

Hopefully, he'll lose his best employees to the other mines
hiring right now in states where he operates... and lose business to those
mines because of this silly little temper tantrum.

Clean coal. There is no such thing. It's a big lie.
