Thank you so much for compiling and posting this factual data that demonstrates so clearly the connection between the Republican Party and this NUTJOB mine owner. He put his rapacious greed ahead of the lives of NINE men. All working people need to remember that when it comes down to their well being vs. profits, they’re screwed.
