please cite a credible news source. The National Enquirer is more reliable than this left wing dribble, and they have naked pictures of Elvis at a 7-11 in St. Louis.

<quoted text>There are many credible news sources carrying the story. Do your own research then show me a site that says it didn't happen.... that the miners weren't forced to take a day off without pay. The representative for the coal mine owners himself acknowledges the story. The source of the story is the miners themselves.

Murray Energy Chief Financial Officer Rob Moore said this....

"There were no workers that were forced to attend the event,” Moore said.“We had managers that communicated to our work force that the attendance at the Romney event was mandatory, but no one was forced to attend the event."

Humm wonder what the choice was? I wonder if Mr. Moore understands the definition of MANDATORY?

When all else fails attack the source...but that only works if you have a credible source that says it never happened. You don't

BTW.. there is the radio station that reported this story at the bottom of the page....sort of like what Rush Limbaugh does only this guy doesn't make things up. He's reporting exactly what the miners are telling him.

Oh gee...look at this...
"Records compiled by the Center for Responsive Politics show that Murray Energy has contributed more than $900,000 to Republican candidates in the last two years."
I wonder how much of that was stolen.....errr...contributed by the employees?

Ron Paul is carrying the story. Are you saying Ron Paul isn't credible? Do you think he'd use this story if it wasn't credible and risk damaging his credibility? You still don't get the nature of debate. I have provided a credible source which you have yet to disprove. You have provided nothing. Get back to me when you have something besides BS to contribute to this thread.

But Chris Maloney, a Romney campaign spokesman, said in an email,“It was Murray Energy’s decision to close the Century Mine, not the campaign’s or the Secret Service.”
The controversy surrounding Romney’s visit to the mine stems from a group of coal miners telling a West Virginia radio station that they would not be paid the day of Romney’s visit and that attendance would be mandatory. A Murray company official told the same radio station on Monday that managers “communicated to our workforce that the attendance at the Romney event was mandatory, but no one was forced to attend”– according to a report this morning in the Cleveland Plain Dealer.
Murray disputed the mandatory attendance order this morning and said the miners were paid “ for the time they were underground” that day. The shift began at 6 a.m. that morning and the miners emerged around 11 a.m. The mine was re-opened for second shift at 4 p.m.
“They were all there voluntarily. They could’ve gone home,” Murray said.“You don’t pay people to voluntarily go to a political event. If I would’ve paid them you would be saying you want it the other way. This is all a bunch of nonsense.”

The story sounds a lot different when the liberal spin is taken away, doesn't it!
