Hypocrisy is not in short supply in the political world, but Tom Steyer is in a class by himself.

Now that he is enriching himself through “green” cronyism, coal is evil. Sure: like all hydrocarbons, it competes with the solar energy boondoggles on which he is making millions, with the aid of the Obama administration.

But where was Steyer’s alleged social conscience when he was one of the world’s biggest investors in coal?

And how substantial are his current holdings in coal projects?

Is Steyer financing his anti-fossil fuel campaign on profits from past or, perhaps, ongoing investments in Asian and Australian coal?Inquiring minds want to know!

Tom Steyer appears to have elevated political hypocrisy to an entirely new level.
