Obama approves mountaintop mining

"While Mr. Obama may have wanted voters to believe otherwise, he never flat-out said he would end this brand of mining." Hope, change, yada yada. Not what the WaPo said when a previous president OK'd the process:

"Appalachia Is Paying Price for White House Rule Change"  Joby Warrick's August 2004 series for THE WASHINGTON POST on the changes wrought by the 2002 fill rule. The series includes a map of West Virginia mountaintop mining sites and a detailed description of the process.

Is this what you folks voted for? Certainly these folks didn't.

In the Word

For the Lord is the great God, the great King above all gods. In his hand are the depths of the earth, and the mountain peaks belong to him. The sea is his, for he made it, and his hands formed the dry land. - Psalm 95:3-5
