Gov. Perry woos California
businesses with radio ads

Associated Press, by Staff

Original Article

Posted By:Dreadnought, 2/4/2013 10:59:58 PM

AUSTIN - Texas Gov. Rick Perry is airing radio ads in California to convince companies there to relocate to the Lone Star state. A public-private marketing partnership called TexasOne is paying for the 30-second advertisement that touts the state´s low taxes and industry-friendly regulations along with strict limits on lawsuits. In the ad, Perry says that he hears "building a business in California is next to impossible." He calls on California businesses to "come check out Texas."

Perry needs to just STOP IT!!!! He has no idea how evil, pernicious, degrading, debased, and un-American Californians are...yestrday, today, and tomorrow. They will destroy TEXAS! Californicate is a word we know all to well here on the west coast. Texans would do well to learn it and shut their stupid Governor UP!

Fine, Governor, just don´t import too many loopy liberals.

Next up: California passes a poison- pill business “death” tax making it prohibitively expensive for people and businesses to move out of state.

Dear Texas,

Just don´t let them infiltrate any governing positions, or they will ruin your state like they did here in Colorao.

They must present evidence they vote for conservatives before being allowed in.

(Applause) This is EXACTLY what the United STATES is about - state competition. Romney never passed Federal one size fit all health care for all Americans - he passed Massachussetts healthcare. If you dont like it, you can move to Vermont.

If Colorado want to allow gay marriage partners to smoke pot - GREAT! Then move to Utah where you can actually raise a family.

It’ll work well for some, not so well for others. Those who come expecting free stuff may be disappointed.

There is going to be an emigration of makers from Blue to Red states, and an immigration to Blue states of takers. The Blue taker states will increasingly demand the money generated in the Red maker states. The cause of the problem, Barack Obama, will summon his kingly powers and "redistribute" out of "fairness" from Red to Blue, with the full cooperation of a corrupt, sycophant press.

It´s getting easier to predict the future, now that opposition to "helping people" a la Democrat-Marxism no longer has any real effect.

Think of it as redistribution of voters or the trail to the new reservation when people segregate.

Perry just wants California businesses to relocate, not the California bubble brains that act on emotions not reason. They can stay in California with Gov. Alice B. Toklass Brownie.

Most liberals in CA are so haughty and snooty that they would never consider relocating to red neck Texas. So the businesses come here and only the down-to-earth people will come with them. Let the libs stay behind and wallow in CA.

I have worked with many of these people and know what I am talking about. In fact, one guy asked me point blank about how he would be treated in Texas as a gay, Jewish, liberal. I told him I couldn´t speak from experience so couldn´t answer his questions, but he didn´t take the job so I guess he self selected out.

I predict we will see a realignment of people where the red states end up with all the conservatives and blue states all the libs and mooches. This is why I think we ought to make it official and divvy up the country sooner rather than later.

It´s not that easy to just pack up and move to another state. You have relocation costs,rehiring a retraining a workforce and in this case leaving a scenic California behind.
Somebody needs to be able to sit down with a calculator and figure out how long it will take for a payback on relocation costs,then you have to worry about Frank/Dodd getting in the way of a loan to pay for it.

It´s hard to believe these days but there are employers who really care about their employees and don´t want to see them being another number on Obama´s weekly tally of jobs lost.

Pat of immigration reform should be doing away with sanctuary cities and states and deny them federal funding if they violate it. I can´t think of a more sanctuary state than cal. and that´s why they´re broke.Every illegal has a bureaucrat behind them making a high salary and benefits which doubles the cost problems.

The federal government won´t reimburse the prison system for housing illegals,even though it´s a federal failure of these people being here.

I´m waiting for Brown and his buddy demonrats to style a law following the Hildebeast´s -- If you want to leave, CA will confiscate your money by taxes and fines.

IRS supervisor in D.C. admits to

An IRS supervisor working in Washington told congressional investigators that she personally reviewed applications from groups for tax-exempt status, in testimony that appears to show the agency’s scrutiny of conservative groups extended beyond the confines of the office in Cincinnati. Holly Paz, who was a supervisor in the Internal Revenue Service’s tax-exempt status division, indicated during an interview with congressional investigators that she did review such applications, but indicated that she believed “tea party” meant political advocacy in general — not necessarily conservative groups.

Political appointees at the Defense Department, the CIA and the White House brushed aside concerns from career officials about helping two Hollywood filmmakers research their 2012 movie about the top-secret Navy SEAL raid that killed Osama bin Laden, according to a report from the Pentagon’s inspector general. CIA Director Leon E.

The Supreme Court ruled today in Arizona v. Inter Tribal Council that federal law does not allow states the option of requiring voters to prove they are American citizens when they register to vote. The National Voter Registration Act of 1993 (NVRA, or “Motor Voter”) creates a standardized national system for registering to vote in federal elections. It allows for registration three ways: (1) in person, (2) when you get your driver’s license, or (3) by mail.

Officials: NSA Doesn´t Collect
Cellphone-Location Records
Wall Street Journal, by Siobhan Gorman and Julian E. Barnes    Original Article

WASHINGTON — The National Security Agency sweeps up data on millions of cellphones and Internet communications under secret court orders. But as it mounts a rigorous defense of its surveillance, the agency has disclosed new details that portray its efforts as tightly controlled and limited in scope, while successful in thwarting potential plots. On Sunday, officials said that though the NSA is authorized to collect "geolocational" information that can pinpoint the location of callers, it chooses not to.

Government compromises our trust

t looked bad last week, but it looks much, much worse now. The federal government has been spying and lying. The only comfort is that, apparently, it´s been largely incompetent at both: Nobody believes the lies, and the spying wasn´t even able to catch the Tsarnaev brothers. Not long ago, the Director of National Intelligence assured us that the federal government does not "wittingly" spy on Americans. That has turned out to be a lie. As Fred Kaplan writes in Slate, "We as a nation are being asked to let the National Security Agency continue doing the intrusive

Perhaps a suddenly firearm-friendly President Obama can put in a good word for Jared Marcum. In April, Marcum, an eighth-grader at Logan Middle School in Logan, W. Va., was arrested when he refused to take off his NRA t-shirt. The New York Daily News reports: The clothing kerfuffle began when Marcum wore a shirt bearing the NRA’s logo and a hunting rifle. As he stood in line in the cafeteria, a teacher ordered him to either change shirts or turn it inside out. Marcum declined and was sent to the office, where an officer

Intervention in Syria Is a Very Bad Idea
National Review Online, by Victor Davis Hanson    Original Article

Syria is turning out to be a sort of Spanish Civil War of our age, with Hezbollah and Iran playing the role of fascist Italy and Germany, and the Islamic nations and jihadists that of Stalin’s Russia, as the moderates disappear and the messy conflict becomes a proxy war for greater powers, with worse to come. There were always problems for the Obama administration intervening in Syria besides the usual bad/worse choices in the Middle East between authoritarianism and Islamic extremism and the president’s own preference for sonorous sermons rather than rapid action

Amid a steady rise of backlash, Edward Snowden, the 29-year-old former National Security Agency contractor who was the source of a spring of leaks about the agency´s surveillance methods, conducted a live chat on The Guardian´s website Monday morning. Judging from some of the pointed questions he´s been asked and the reaction to newly leaked revelations over the past few days, it´s clear that much of the sympathy and support Snowden had built up for his early exposures is eroding. Many Americans supported his decision to leak information about a pair of National Security Agency surveillance programs, which, he detailed, gathered information

As NewsBusters reported last week, former Alaska Governor Sarah Palin called out vulgarian comedian Bill Maher for referring to her Down Syndrome son Trig as "retarded." On ABC´s The View Monday, co-host Barbara Walters astonishingly defended Maher saying, "I don´t think he intended it to be mean-spirited" (video follows with transcript and commentary): WHOOPI GOLDBERG: At a recent standup show in Las Vegas, comedian Bill Maher apparently called Sarah Palin’s five-year-old developmentally-challenged son Trig retarded. And Sarah blasted him on Twitter as a bully. Is that, is it, is he a bully? Is he a bad, what is he?

Five months into his second term, allies and enemies are as confounded as ever about who President Obama really is. Is he the dyed-in-the-wool liberal that his biggest supporters and critics suggest? Or is he a pragmatic, even cynical, politician who cares more for his popularity than taking risks for his ideological goals or living up to his rhetoric? Even in the short period since his reelection, Obama has provided evidence to support conflicting interpretations. His efforts to pass immigration reform, the unsuccessful push for stricter gun controls and tax hikes on high earners buttress the case for Obama-as-ideologue.

Jeb Bush says he’s not worried that his work toward comprehensive immigration reform and his ties to the GOP establishment will alienate conservatives and negatively impact a potential 2016 presidential campaign, referring to critics as “the chirpers.” “If I decide to run for office again, it will be based on what I believe, and it will be based on my record,” the former Florida governor said in an interview with the Christian Broadcasting Network’s David Brody. “And that record was one of solving problems completely from a conservative prospective.” Bush (R) pointed to his conservative

Politico’s Playbook has an excerpt from a new Ryan Lizza piece from the New Yorker that is not yet online. It contains a passage on the back-and-forth between labor and the Chamber that has a quote from a Rubio staffer that is going to raise eyebrows, to say the least: “There are American workers who, for lack of a better term, can’t cut it. There shouldn’t be a presumption that every American worker is a star performer. There are people who just can’t get it, can’t do it, don’t want to do it. And so you can’t obviously discuss that publicly.” Here is the entire context:

Iran is preparing to send 4,000 troops in to Syria to support Syrian President Bashar al-Assad in the wake of America´s announcement it will be providing ´military aid´ to the country´s Muslim rebels. President Barack Obama made the pledge earlier this week after the U.S. claimed it found ´conclusive evidence´ Assad´s regime has used chemical weapons against the rebel forces--which includes the most extreme Sunni Islamists--and has called for Britain and France to back the move. While Britain hasn´t made a guarantee either way as yet, more than 350 Royal Marines are being sent to Jordan

Is Marco Rubio, R-Fla., getting played by Sen. Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y.? During his interview with ABC’s Jonathan Karl this morning, Rubio didn’t even seem to understand what that meant. “Are you being played by the Democrats?” asked Karl. “Is Chuck Schumer playing you?” “I don’t — I quite frankly, I don’t even know what that means,” Rubio replied. “Is he using you?” Karl continued. “Is he using you to try to accomplish something that the Democrats want and is not — not a conservative bill?” Rubio responded that immigration reform was a bi-partisan issue that “all Americans
