I thought that all buildings for Kanawha County were smoke free. You can drive down Goshorn Street and see some of the people standing in front of the building smoking and I think some of them are employees.

If you need a reason to vote against Mitt Romney, consider this. Two of the sleaziest politicians in West Virginia have publicly announced that they may vote for Mitt Romney.
Actually, they said they were unsure if they would vote for B. Hussein Obama. Can't blame them for that enlightening wake-up. And for every reason you can give for voting against Romney, I'll give two reasons to vote against Obama.
The president's goal is to make fossil fuels too expensive to use. Wouldn't you say that philosophy is not a recipe for economic prosperity?
The only economic prosperity B. Hussein Obama wants to see is the demise of coal and a supersurge of solar energy and he's willing to bankrupt the country to get it done.
One can't lose what one never had.
Thank you for informing us that U.S. Sen. Joe Manchin and W.Va. Gov. Earl Ray Tomblin may not vote for President Obama in the coming election. With that news, now I know for sure that I will not vote for Manchin or Tomblin. Both are losers and unfaithful to our state and nation.
Yalk about losers. My great-grandpappy was a democrat, my grandpappy was a democrat, my daddy is a democrat and, by golly, I'm a democrat too. And if you ain't no democrat then you got no business in guvment.
Shameful!!
Gov. Tomblin and Sen. Manchin have no class. They obviously will do and say anything to be reelected. Saying they "might" not vote for our wonderful, intelligent, President Obama, will force me, a strong Democrat, to vote against them.
Such comedy in this post. See the answer above.
If Joe and Earl Ray cannot support their party's sitting president then I cannot support them.
THEN VOTE REPUBLICAN!!!!!!!!!!
For every reason you can give for voting against Romney, I'll give two reasons to vote against obama.
Seriously pesmith, only two? I could come up with 50 without trying.
Didn't want to play all my cards at once. A two for one match would run my opponent ragged and I'd have plenty of reserve.
Obama is NOT the first president to reimburse the guvment for his use of AF1 during a campaign for re-election. At a cost of $179,750 per hour to operate, the cost mounts quickly. A presidential campaign is charged the same as someone who would charter a B737.
You hung yourself with your own words, being ignorant of the fact the entire cost is NOT paid by Obama, but by tax dollars. That's my money and yours.
And one more point of contention, Bush NEVER flew the WH helicopter to Texas. Marine One was used to shuttle the president from the WH to Andrews AFB, where he boarded AF1. The B747 was then flown to an airport near Waco, TX. He boarded a marine helicopter, based nearby, and flew the short leg to his ranch in Crawford.
Thanks for the opportunity to set the record straight for you.
Umm.....what??
Straight from Obama's mouth: "So if somebody wants to build a coal-powered plant, they can; it’s just that it will bankrupt them because they’re going to be charged a huge sum for all that greenhouse gas that’s being emitted."
The EPA just instituted regulation that requires FIFTY PERCENT cuts in emissions, in a relatively short time frame. Do you realize how ridiculous and impossible that is? Do you realize the money that would be required for that? And do you realize how many of the AEP plants in WV and surrounding states are seriously considering shutting down? This country can't operate without coal power, and Obama is staunchly ANTI-coal. How else would you describe trying to bankrupt coal power plants??
And pesmith wrote:

The real humor here is that you can't think of a position that resident Obama holds that Romney hasn't previously held, and given his dexterity, will no doubt hold again, when he sees the wind is blowing in that direction.
i prefer the term republican stupid !!!....hes a typical republican and displays the triad well-----ignorance and arrogance and hypocrisy !!!
once again evidence that republican stupid is irrepairable !!!!....this people are dangerous the the future of america and a bigger threat than saddam and bin laden combined !!!
1...americas first non-chrsitian presidential candidate!!!
Has anyone heard of "distracted driving"? If these paintings are so great, they should be exhibited at the Clay Center, not gawked at while operating a motor vehicle.
During the past presidential elections, H. Clinton won the WV primaries and republican John McCain won WV during the general elections. That should tell you what the majority of our citizens think of Barak Obama. Maybe Joe and Earl Ray are smarter than you think. Also, I wouldn't worry about all those federal handouts we will be losing. I think President Romney will be very favorable toward WV.
