Obama's Coal-Crushing Policy

In the first presidential debate tonight, Mitt Romney said President Obama is crushing coal with his policy. Oh, but anyone who has watched the old Superman show knows, when coal gets crushed, it becomes diamonds! And this must be the president's secret plan to pay off the national debt: to crush coal until it becomes diamonds! It's brilliant, really: almost as brilliant as the alchemists who turned base metals into gold in the middle ages. Plus, everyone knows that while coal is dirty, diamonds are clean. So this must be the whole idea behind "clean coal" technology: to make coal into diamonds! (It's the only way I know of to make coal clean, plus it will make it worth a lot more, too!)
