| ALBANY - There’s a Texas style feud brewing between Rick Perry and New York Gov. Cuomo. Perry, the Texas governor and possible 2016 Republican presidential contender, took a swipe at the Democrat Cuomo during a policy forum Thursday. “You could say that the economic climate that has allowed (Texas) to grow and create jobs, he’d dearly love to be able to stand up and say, ‘We did this in New York.’ But he can’t.” Perry also said Cuomo, “if he were truthful” would admit that he’d want to be a Texan.

There is no "feud" brewing. Sorry, NYDN. But, I´ll admit that sometimes Perry´s mouth gets a little ahead of his brain.

Cuomo is the principal architect of the housing and banking crash of four years ago. Amazing he could run for President. Can´t fix stupid.

Doubt there will be a "feud". Cuomo will just ignore Perry as most people outside of TX already have.

I like the way Texas is governed but fair is fair. When Perry touts Texas´ prosperity he has to give some credit to the natural resources of Texas. New York has no oil. Neither does Massachusetts which was dissed by Perry in the nomination fight. Despite that disadvantage, New York and Massachusetts have little poverty.

Cuomo´s base in New York City and state are entitlement demanders and government-funded employee types.
Extremely liberal mindset in every regard. Close family living there. Not mistaken.

If the Republicans try to run Cuomo there will be a third party. I know it will be a lost cause but not worse than where we are now. At least we´ll have our integrity.

No. 12 - Cuomo is a Democrat, so the Republicans would never be running him on their ticket. Another thing about Cuomo - does he think our country is ready to have his mistress as our first lady? Have we sunk this low?

#2 those things would probably be resume-enhancers for DemRats. And given the mood of the country, probably a majority of the electorate would agree. So they wrecked the economy. Big deal. The DemRats will solve that by blaming Republicans and laying more taxes on "the rich". See how easy it is to be a liberal? Just have no brains or guts.

There´s no love lost between Texas & New York & that´s nothing new. Anyone remember the Pace ads? Cowboys gather around the chuckwagon scrutinizing a suspect jar of sauce. "Pace picante sauce is made in San Antonio Texas...this stuff´s made in New York City." "New York City?! Get a rope!"

There’s a Texas style feud brewing between Rick Perry and New York Gov. Cuomo.
Excuse me, Glenn Bain, it takes two to feud. How difficult is it to comprehend the caption beneath your photo of Cuomo, which explicitly states, New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo hasn´t responded yet . . . .?
Governor Perry also said: I’m sure that I couldn’t get all 49 other governors to admit that they would want to be Texans. So why didn’t you claim “There’s a Texas style feud brewing between Rick Perry and the other U.S. governors”?
Is your REAL aim to do to Perry what the drive-by media did to him when he ran for President in 2012? Are you trying to obviate his running again in 2016?
Texas Governor Rick Perry is a CONSTITUTIONIST who strives for smaller government and for individual freedom. New York Cuomo is a NANNY.
THAT is why Texas is thriving while we New Yorkers suffer Cuomo’s crappy economy and Cuomo’s creepy fiats.

When Chelsea Clinton wanted to make a low-key visit to the hurricane-stricken Rockaways last fall, she arranged to take a trip with her close friend Huma Abedin, a longtime aide to Hillary Rodham Clinton. So some members of the Clinton camp were surprised and unsettled to learn that Ms. Abedin also brought along her husband, Anthony D. Weiner, the former congressman who had rarely been seen in public since resigning his seat the previous year. The next day, Mr. Weiner reactivated his Twitter account to post a video about the Rockaways. Photographs soon surfaced in New York news outlets

WASHINGTON — At times on Thursday, it seemed President Obama was taking part in a debate rather than giving a speech. Deep into an address at the National Defense University, where Mr. Obama sought to redefine America’s approach to fighting terrorism, a heckler repeatedly interrupted from the back of the room, demanding an end to drone strikes and the closing of the Guantánamo Bay detention center in Cuba. The heckler — though she objected strenuously to being described that way — was Medea Benjamin, a co-founder of Code Pink, a group opposed to United States military actions.

“Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.” That’s the full text of the First Amendment.

Fox News chief Roger Ailes´s letter to his employees is a battle cry that will echo beyond the Avenue of the Americas. "The administration’s attempt to intimidate Fox News and its employees will not succeed and their excuses will stand neither the test of law, the test of decency, nor the test of time. We will not allow a climate of press intimidation, unseen since the McCarthy era, to frighten any of us away from the truth," he wrote.

The owners of One Liberty Place in Center City Philadelphia filed a lawsuit Wednesday against the Israelite School of Universal Practical Knowledge. The group is frequently seen perched on Center City street corners shouting at passersby through bullhorns.

WASHINGTON — Schoolchildren from New Jersey shore communities battered by Superstorm Sandy will join Michelle Obama for a garden harvest next week. The White House says the first lady will also be joined Tuesday by students who helped plant the crops last month. The New Jersey students are from Union Beach Memorial School in Union Beach and Long Beach Island Grade School in Ship Bottom. Both schools were damaged in last October’s storm. Both also teach their students about healthy eating, which is one of the first lady’s causes. The students who helped plant lettuce, broccoli and various other crops

The public got its first look Thursday at Lois Lerner, who has gone from faceless IRS bureaucrat to the face that launched what feels like 1,000 congressional hearings and conspiracy theories. But it was only a brief sighting since she didn´t stay long at a House hearing to further probe her role in how some IRS workers came to target conservative groups seeking tax-exempt status. (Snip)She did make a short statement to declare her innocence, however. Lerner´s motivation was more transparent than much of what the IRS has done in connection with this controversy.

When you get right down to it, the political targeting and stalling of tax-exempt applications by the IRS was an effort to defund the Tea Party. Rick Santelli, one of the Tea Party founders and my CNBC colleague, was the first to make this point. I’ve taken it a step further: The IRS was taking the Tea Party out of play for the 2012 election, as it looked to avoid a repeat of 2010 and another Tea Party landslide.There are a lot of numbers out there.

Eva Longoria is backing up her beauty with a whole lot of brain. The actress graduated with a master´s degree Wednesday. Longoria, 38, took home a real degree (not an honorary one) in Chicano studies from Cal State Northridge, where she physically attended classes for three years, according to TMZ. "Big day today!!! Very excited to graduate for my master´s degree in Chicano studies! You´re never too old or too busy to continue your education!" the actress wrote on her Who Say site Wednesday, sharing loads of pics of her big day, posing with her family, cohorts and diploma.

On “Fox News Sunday” last weekend, White House aide Dan Pfeiffer was asked about President Barack Obama’s whereabouts the night of the Sept. 11 attack in Benghazi. This was the night when we lost our first ambassador in 30 years, and when three other Americans were killed in an attack that lasted all night long at multiple locations within the eastern Libyan city. Since the president is commander in chief, one would think where he was and what he did during such an event would be of obvious public concern.

President Obama on Thursday nominated Victoria Nuland, a State Department official involved in the editing of the administration´s talking points on Benghazi, to be the next assistant secretary of state for European and Eurasian affairs. Nuland, a career foreign service officer who was until recently State´s top spokesperson, had long been expected to be nominated the post to replace Philip Gordon, who Obama picked to serve as Middle East coordinator for the National Security Council. Nuland´s nomination -- which requires Senate confirmation -- could come under scrutiny from Republicans who see her as playing a central role in shaping

House Oversight and Government Reform Committee Chairman Darrell Issa said embattled IRS official Lois Lerner waived her Fifth Amendment rights and will be hauled back to appear before his panel again. The California Republican said Lerner’s Fifth Amendment right to avoid self-incrimination was voided when she gave an opening statement this morning denying any wrongdoing and professing pride in her government service. “When I asked her her questions from the very beginning, I did so so she could assert her rights prior to any statement,” Issa told POLITICO. “She chose not to do so — so she waived.”
