Coal may be abundant, affordable, and reliable, but it is anything but clean. This is probably just pandering to the coal industry. On most issues I lean right to far right, but on the environment I'm on the left and I'll make no excuses or apologies for that.

Organic sulfur can't be removed from coal through the scrubbing process. Actually removing "organic sulfur" through a necessary chemical process is expensive and is not considered cost effective. Scrubbing does help, but it's to a total solution.
