Maybe Obama is going to buy up all the coal that can't be used in the USA because he pretends he cares about global warming and give it to the African nations.

(CNN) -- U.S. President Barack Obama pledged $7 billion Sunday to help combat frequent power blackouts in sub-Saharan Africa.
Funds from the initiative, dubbed Power Africa, will be distributed over the next five years. Obama made the announcement during his trip to South Africa, the continent's biggest economy.
"Access to electricity is fundamental to opportunity in this age. It's the light that children study by, the energy that allows an idea to be transformed into a real business. It's the lifeline for families to meet their most basic needs, and it's the connection that's needed to plug Africa into the grid of the global economy," he said.

How about $39.95 to fix some of our roads and bridges Barry?

Does anyone besides myself understand WHY he is taking this initiative and How important it is? If so, send me a PM and we will talk.
Otherwise, entertain yourselves.
