As Dave Barry would say, I am not making this up. Don Blankenship goes on to compare people who disagree with him to Osama bin Laden, which may call for a revision of Godwin's Law. NRDC breaks the video down and concludes:
Blankenship goes on with his bizarre theories about how mass transit will destroy American capitalism. Or, how dealing with global warming will cause the Chinese to take over and tell you where you have to go to church.Did I mention Massey has given 97% of its contributions to Republicans?
But you get the idea.
Next time you hear someone from the coal industry asking to be taken seriously about "clean coal" or the nonexistent "debate" about climate change, just remember the wit and wisdom of Massey Energy CEO Don Blankenship.

I'm wondering: were you similarly critical of Arianna Huffington's idiocy that driving an SUV supports terrorism? Or do you agree with it? If the answers are "no" and "yes," respectively, then I suspect that your real complaint is that one Conservative has responded in kind.
