Lines Blur in Texas as Industries Seek Givebacks

Under Gov. Rick Perry, Texas offers more incentives to attract businesses than any other state, around $19 billion a year, an examination by The New York Times has found. Texas justifies its largess by pointing out that it is home to half of all the private sector jobs created over the last decade nationwide.
Yet the raw numbers mask a more complicated reality behind the flood of incentives, the examination shows, and raise questions about who benefits more, the businesses or the people of Texas.

In a state that markets itself as "wide open for business," the lines are often blurred between decision makers and beneficiaries, according to interviews with dozens of state and local officials and corporate representatives.

{Political_Views} Tell the Senate: No more judicial obstruction

Dear Friend Our friends at People For the American Way (PFAW) have been working for a fairer, freer, and more progressive America for 30 years — including a special focus on the federal judiciary. Over the past two years, Senate Republicans have waged an unprecedented campaign of delay and obstruction to stop President Obama's judicial nominees — even the uncontroversial ones — from being confirmed. And despite the clear results from the election, Republicans still haven't stopped standing in the way. The result? Denied justice for countless Americans who are forced to wait years to have their day in court. Please take action with PFAW today, and tell Senate Republicans: End the obstruction and confirm the president's judicial nominees in the current lame duck session. — Jordan Krueger, Campaign Manager, CREDO Action The people spoke. Tell the Senate GOP: End the obstruction now! Tell Republican Senators to end the obstruction and confirm the president's judicial nominees now. Dear Progressive Activist, Earlier this month, President Obama offered seven new nominees to fill vacancies on federal district courts, showing that while Republicans have been busy obstructing, the White House has been busy finding qualified judges. The president also urged the Senate to move on 19 judicial nominees (including four appellate court nominees) who continue to languish — some for many, many months — while an abundance of vacancies that overburden the courts and cost countless Americans their access to justice persist. The election's over, President Obama won and Democrats expanded their majority in the Senate — what clearer sign do Senate Republicans need that America is fed up with their obstruction and it's time to confirm these nominees? Please take a moment to tell Minority Leader Mitch McConnell and Senate Republicans to END THE OBSTRUCTION AND CONFIRM THE PRESIDENT'S JUDICIAL NOMINEES IN THE CURRENT LAME DUCK SESSION. Of the 19 nominations who Senate Republicans continue to filibuster: None of the nominees are in any way controversial, with almost all of them receiving overwhelming bipartisan support in committee. All of the nominees have the support of their home state senators, including those from states with Republican senators. Half of the vacancies the nominees would fill in courts across the country have been declared judicial emergencies because of the crippling effect they're having on the courts' ability to do their job. The unprecedented and unconscionable abuse of the filibuster to obstruct progress and the basic functions of government by Senate Republicans has perhaps been most egregious in the area of presidential nominations, both executive branch nominations and those for the federal courts, but especially judicial nominations. It's time for Senate Republicans to take the hint from the election and drop their filibusters. It's time for the obstruction to end once and for all. Tell GOP senators to confirm the president's judges now! After you take action, please spread the word and share the petition with others via email and social media. We need as many Americans speaking up and telling the GOP to end its shenanigans as we can get. Thank you for all you do. Sincerely, Michael Keegan, President

{Political_Views} News Alert: Republicans make laughable counteroffer to White House on fiscal cliff

Republicans make counteroffer to White House on fiscal cliff

Monday, December 3, 2012 3:23:12 PM National News Alert Republicans make counteroffer to White House on fiscal cliff House Republican leaders on Monday endorsed a far-reaching plan to rein in the national debt that that would raise $800 billion in new tax revenue, slice $600 billion from federal health programs and apply a stingier measure of inflation to Social Security benefits. House Speaker John A. Boehner suggested that the framework – first laid out by Democrat Erskine Bowles during last year's budget battles – should serve as a starting point for budget talks aimed at averting the year-end fiscal cliff.

As Companies Seek Tax Deals, Governments Pay High Price

A New York Times investigation into the incentives that governments offer businesses has found that states, cities and counties are giving up more than $80 billion a year to attract or keep the companies and the jobs that they provide. The beneficiaries come from virtually every corner of the corporate world, encompassing oil and coal conglomerates, technology and entertainment companies, banks and big-box retail chains.
But the cost of the awards is certainly far higher. A full accounting, The Times discovered, is not possible because the incentives are granted by thousands of government agencies and officials, and many do not know the value of all their awards. Nor do they know if the money was worth it because they rarely track how many jobs are created. Even where officials do track incentives, they acknowledge that it is impossible to know whether the jobs would have been created without the aid.

{Political_Views} Beware the Boehlert

It's hard to calculate the amount of projection, and buried Iraq War shame, that's in play when GOP scolds Susan Rice for "misleading Americans"

 

this never gets old, @caseykim12 .@EricBoehlert you've forgotten the part where intelligence agencies around WORLD believed Iraq had WMDs

 

the WMDs existed in their guts;  @jwb625 @EricBoehlert @caseykim12 Truthiness never goes out of style.

 

How DARE Obama support Susan Rice when 5 senators oppose her. I mean the AUDACITY of that guy...

 

I mean who elected Obama president???

Sen Collins wont support Rice cus Rice went on MTP: I'm NOT making that up; RT @MotherJones: Et Tu, Susan? http://bit.ly/Y85gU5

 

For a party that just got massacred at the polls by women and minority voters, launching hateful smear campaign vs Susan Rice makes sense..

 

GOP is soooo doomed with women voters: picks men for every committee chairmanship; launches Susan Rice smear campaign. and that's just this week!

 

Petulant whining, foot stomping over Rice represents some of most pathetic sore loser tantrums ever. Lapdog DC press won't call GOP out though.

 

For lapdog DC press, GOP's petulant whining over Rice ='s super savvy hardball. Press won't ever get up nerve to criticize GOP obstructionism.

 

I mean, if selecting Secretary of State is so important to GOP they ought to learn how to win national elections. It's winner talk all boys.

 

Now there's zero doubt GOP is smearing Susan Rice in order to get a John Kerry nomination for Secretary of State and a Scott Brown re-run; #hacks.

 

And yes the GOP demand that Obama ditch Rice and send up another old white guy to become Sec of State is just creepy.

 

You know how quote marks work right? #trytokeepup, @gopfirecracker: @EricBoehlert They used those words? "Old white guy".

 

Is McCain's Rice temper tantrum because he thought he'd be Sec of Defense under President Romney??? what a joke he's become.

 

Stu Stevens: "I think we should've done a better job reaching out to women voters".  ( Ya think?!!?)

Are U effing kidding me? Washington Post frets RIce fight will cost White House "valuable good will" with republicans. WHAT GOOD WILL??? http://wapo.st/TuRlnk #unicorns, notice the Washington Post never frets that any fight will cost GOP "valuable good will" with the White House.  In DC, the onus is ALWAYS on obama; GOP moves to kill a nomination that HASNT EVEN BEEN MADE YET and the Washington Post thinks Republican "good will" actually exists? #justgoaway.

{Political_Views} Louisiana Legislator Upset That Education Vouchers Can Go to Muslim Schools

Louisiana Legislator Upset That Education Vouchers Can Go to Muslim Schools

 

Posted: 07 Jul 2012 06:00 PM PDT

 

It looks like someone's pocket Constitution was lost before she voted in the Louisiana legislature. That's Republican legislator Valarie Hodges, who wholeheartedly supported Bobby Jindal's school voucher program. Well, she supported it until she discovered that -- GASP! -- state money could go to Muslim schools.

Now she's just horrified.

Rep. Valarie Hodges, R-Watson, says she had no idea that Gov. Bobby Jindal's overhaul of the state's educational system might mean taxpayer support of Muslim schools.

"I actually support funding for teaching the fundamentals of America's Founding Fathers' religion, which is Christianity, in public schools or private schools," the District 64 Representative said Monday.

"I liked the idea of giving parents the option of sending their children to a public school or a Christian school," Hodges said.

Hodges mistakenly assumed that "religious" meant "Christian."

HB976, now signed into law as Act 2, proposed, among other things, a voucher program allowing state educational funds to be used to send students to schools run by religious groups.

[...]
The school funding mechanism, however, did not come up for a vote until the end of the session. By then, a Muslim-based school had applied for support through the new voucher system.
During debate over the MFP (Minimum Foundation Program) funding formula, Hodges learned more about the consequences of the educational changes. She voted against the new MFP funding formula; Schexnayder voted for it.

"Unfortunately it will not be limited to the Founders' religion," Hodges said. "We need to insure that it does not open the door to fund radical Islam schools. There are a thousand Muslim schools that have sprung up recently. I do not support using public funds for teaching Islam anywhere here in Louisiana."

Well, hey, Rep. Hodges. You don't get to pick and choose the "permissible religions" when you hand over public funds to private concerns, which is why those of us with half a brain think that public school money ought to be used to fund public institutions, especially when there is NO "founders' religion."

See, that way it's easy. My tax money doesn't go to fund stupid conservative, narrow-minded, intellectually dishonest education controlled by Catholic bishops and Southern Baptist wingnuts, and your tax money doesn't go to Muslims. Didn't you believe that whole "freedom of religion" thing in the Constitution?

The stupid just hurts. It hurts hard.

 

 

On a personal note I'm glad that Act 2 has been signed into law.  Now when the Jews, Muslims, Hindis, Bhudists, Animists, Nativists and all the other religious types file the paper work to get public dollars for schools
