Alaska Politician Suggests this it is Time to Stop Educating Handicapped Children

[Tony_FLADEM]

Mark Ewing, a former city councilman from Wasilla, Alaska, and candidate for the state House recently squared off in a debate with his opponent. In that debate, Ewing made several surprising comments, including “I love coal. I love the smell of burning coal in the morning.”

Of course, coal is one of the most polluting sources of energy around. A single power plant dumps tons of harmful pollutants into the air, inflicting damage on people and nature. Enjoying the smell of burning coal is as wise as inhaling tobacco fumes and bragging about how great it is for one’s health.

Perhaps all that inhaling helps explain Ewing’s next comment. These words cannot go down well with Wasilla’s more famous resident Sarah Palin whose youngest child is handicapped.
