    COAL MINERS RELEASE SCATHING AD ACCUSING OBAMA OF ‘LIES’ WHEN REFERENCING THEM

    A group of coal miners that has become the focus of an anti-Romney attack by the Obama camp has struck back in a new ad accusing the president of “lies.”

    The ad is in response to an oft-repeated characterization (and Obama ad) that workers from the Century Mine were forced to attend a Romney rally. That was debunked in September and the Obama ad was supposed to have been altered to pull the footage alleging such a thing. The miners, however, are still upset enough about it to have released an ad of there own, which was partnered with a letter to the president:

    Dear President Obama:
    We are writing as the employees of American Energy Century Mine in Beallsville, Ohio. You have approved in a running television campaign ads about the Mitt Romney event that was held at our Century coal mine. These ads state that we were forced to attend this rally and that is blatantly false. There are numerous false statements and absolute lies concerning our participation in this event, we, the employees, mostly started by a local shock jock host. Since your approval is attached to these ads, you may not wish to support these mistruths. Why would you lie about the 500 working miners who have signed this letter? We, the employees of Century Mine, would request you immediately stop these false ads. Thank you. Century Mine employees.

    This is the Obama camp ad:

    Here’s the response ad by the miners:

    This is just unbelievable...this administration will stop at nothing to win this election. This is evidence of just the absolute blatant lies they are capable of. To even make a AD about it, is incredible!

    Thank you men for being so brave! We support you. I sponsored the ad through facebook....you can too, just share this ad to your facebook and press "promote"

    I live in PA, and I gotta tell you that the feeling here is that Romney takes it. Republicans have always had an issue in central PA (I live in Eastern suburbs, lots of republicans here)...but according to people I know in central parts, there are Romney signs EVERYWHERE!

    It certain;y won't help in the Coal states,like Ohio and Kentucky.Where Miners talk.
    They know full well this Adm. is hellbent on destroying their Industry.
    In Kentucky Coal permits have still not been forthcoming.This Government is doing everything it can
    to stall those permits.Every stall tactic is being employed to deny what our Government has
    a duty to perform.That being the issuance of new permits for exploration and drilling.

    These people in coal states better get their (*)(*)(*)(*) together, and in a hurry.
    A second term by Obama, a term where he doesn't have to worry about getting re-elected, could prove catostrophic to coal states.

    I think Pennsylvania is in play.But don't forget guys like Former Governor Ed Rendell
    is working to pad the city of Philly.Look for Philly to try and use massive voter fraud.
    That is where the Unions like SEIU and AFL/CIO will probably try and pull a
    Moscow with Carousal voting.
    The mayor of Philly { Michael Nutter } is not right in the head.He just uses old
    Democrat Talking Pts. and pushes them on the average Philly knucklehead ad nauseam.
    He was on - Hardball - last week making a play for - Get Out The Vote - in Philly.
    meaning ... lie,cheat,steal and pull whatever to get Obama a win.
    Nutter is what's wrong with this Country.

    Philly will never vote for Romney....that place is a mess, north, northeast, south, and west Philly are just awful places to be. Mayor nutter is a good guy....speaks his mind. But, at the end of the day still a democrat. There is no hope for Philly. The city needs a republican mayor.... never happen though. Rendell is a shill, can't stand the guy.

    So Philadelphia is a chocolate city now? That's sad. I always thought that Rocky Balboa was a white guy. :no:

    There is something seriosuly wrong with Philly.I doubt even *Bill Cosby relishes going
    anywhere near downtown even though he spent decades talking about his beloved
    city of youth.
    The city is too far gone.Too Corrupted and full of graft.









    * one of my 2 hero's as a high schooler.Bill Cosby and Marlon Brando.
    Cosby was a class clown like Brando,but the ' Cos ' had real spirit and true work
    ethic.Not only did he stay so active in ALL Sports but managed to work part time
    selling produce,shining shoes and in a supermarket.Having flunked 10th grade
    he had the option of working as an apprentice at a shoe repair shop.He left school to
    join the navy.Cosby was all work ethic.His mother was a maid and his father away
    most of the time in the service.
    I also flunked { 8th grade } and my first real job was in a small Grocery store dealing with
    unloading and cleaning out the produce truck.I also loved and played sports,especially basketball
    and track.

    Philadelphia is an Obamaphones city. They gauge success by the # of government programs you can get signed up for.
    Unless the Democrat party evolves into something completely unknown to todays party, this city will forever be a Dem stronghold.
