This is never about anything substantive- never discusses any real political issues. This lady is just a groupie at council and commissioner's meetings, reporting the stupid things they do or say.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The last week of the year is when people are making their final decisions to run for office. Something could have been written about attorneys thinking of challenging the rude Judge Longoria or what happened about possible opponents to Juan Garcia but no she'd rather talk about nonsense. If she wants to learn more about what commissioners are thinking when they dress the same perhaps she can do a series hiding out in each politician's closet and watching and listening to them dress- and the Caller - Times can get someone to deal with the more serious issues.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yes post 1 , it may be superficial , but is that earning the money we paid for them to "work harder"?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;How much does faux "cleric" Tyne r Little earn? Enough for him to be elevated by the County Judge to "Reverend, are you all set?"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When did this happen? Dress rehearsal for another Loyd (Insurance) deal perhaps, but  it was whatever "Kneel" wanted it to be.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What is 9/10th's of the law? Abandonment?&lt;br /&gt;WACO?!?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is criminal why does Jaime Powell not report "eminent domain" this crime fraud?

Gardner Selby&lt;br /&gt;AMERICAN-STATESMAN STAFF&lt;br /&gt;Tuesday, September 11, 2007&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For someone who proclaims his independence from the White House, U.S. Sen. John Cornyn of Texas can still sound like a cheerleader for President Bush.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Speaking to fellow Republicans in Fort Worth at a presidential straw poll recently, Cornyn staked a claim to re-election next year as a pro-war, anti-tax candidate who expects to match up with voter sentiments in his home state.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ralph Barrera&lt;br /&gt;AMERICAN-STATESMAN&lt;br /&gt;(enlarge photo)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;John Cornyn says he has differed with Bush some.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;MORE W. GARDNER SELBY&lt;br /&gt;W. GARDNER SELBY&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;He stressed his support for the course Bush has set in Iraq and suggested that voters can rely only on Republicans to extend the tax cuts Bush made in his first term.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Two Democratic Senate hopefuls, San Antonio lawyer Mikal Watts and state Rep. Rick Noriega of Houston, are counting on voters to hold Cornyn accountable for Republican stewardship of Congress in the first four years of his six-year term.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"People will not rehire someone who has had bad plans replaced by more bad plans," Noriega said.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Watts called Cornyn a senator "who parrots exactly what he's told to say by this administration and Karl Rove," the former White House counselor.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Cornyn, who ran in 2002 as part of "Team Bush," said in an August interview that he has been a Bush ally on judicial appointments and the war on terrorism but that he has also parted with his friend on a few issues.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A Cornyn proposal to allow greater access to federal records has cleared the Senate without White House backing. Cornyn also is among senators at odds with the president by proposing to give states alternative ways of complying with the federal education accountability system that Bush started.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Also, he and Sen. Edward Kennedy, D-Mass., are seeking to grant the Food and Drug Administration regulatory authority over tobacco and ingredients including nicotine, a step yet to be endorsed by Bush.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This summer, Cornyn opposed the Bush-favored compromise on changes to immigration policy. The senator unsuccessfully offered an amendment barring felons and other offenders from legal residency.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;He later called Bush tone-deaf on the issue. "I don't think he had any real concept of the public engagement on that issue," he said.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In Fort Worth, though, Cornyn said Bush was absolutely right to raise the specter of Vietnam when discussing Democrats' calls for a timed withdrawal of troops from Iraq.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If American forces leave prematurely, Cornyn said, the region will plunge into a humanitarian crisis, and unwatched terrorists will plot attacks. "Unless we get the job done, they will follow us here," he said. "And we've got to make sure that never ever happens again. Not another 9/11, not ever."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;His Democratic opponents each noted that as young men, Cornyn and Bush didn't serve in Vietnam.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Noriega, a lieutenant colonel in the Texas National Guard, said, "Comparing Vietnam to the Middle East is like comparing apples to wheat; they are not in the same food group. Differences include geography, terrain, cultures, religion, technology, history of region, just to name a few. This is just another example of the unfortunate circumstance we face when we have leaders who have not walked the walk."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Watts said, "I don't think there is a plan for victory in Iraq. ... We have to stay in the region, but I don't think we should be standing around on street corners getting shot at while we observe someone else's civil war."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;On the domestic front, Cornyn charged Democrats with planning not to extend tax cuts enacted at Bush's request starting in 2001. Barring congressional action, cuts of income, capital gains, dividends and other taxes will expire in 2011.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;On Capitol Hill, the cuts are rated either Bush's keystone domestic achievement or a gift to the nation's wealthiest residents.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office estimates that extending the tax cuts would cost the government more than $1.8 trillion through 2017.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Tax-cut advocates say such money rightly belongs to taxpayers.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Cornyn's take: Democrats will let into law the biggest tax increase in history.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"They're going to do it without a single vote unless we get the majority back," he said. "They're going to do it because the tax relief that we passed under President Bush back in 2003 will expire unless we make it permanent. And we have to get the majority back and keep taxes low and keep America growing."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Watts said he would review each tax cut one by one but opposes extending cuts for the wealthy as long as government runs a deficit.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Noriega called it "blatantly false" to forecast all the cuts vanishing.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Nationally, 52 percent of voters favored making the tax cuts permanent in a poll conducted this year by Moore Information, an Oregon-based research firm. Thirty-eight percent preferred to let the cuts expire, and 10 percent had no opinion.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Republicans and a plurality of independents supported making the cuts permanent. A majority of Democrats wished to see them expire.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;About half of respondents agreed that the cuts should be extended only for households with annual incomes of less than $150,000. About a third of voters favored making the cuts permanent for everyone.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Jason Furman, an economist and senior fellow with the Brookings Institution, an independent research outfit, testified before the House Ways and Means Committee last week that extending the cuts would widen after-tax income gaps between Americans.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Furman said a best-case U.S. Treasury projection suggests an extremely slight impact on the economy, with extended cuts more likely increasing the national debt and reducing government savings.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;An eventual need to repay the cuts, he said, would drive down disposable income as taxpayers see cuts in government programs or bumps in taxes to bankroll the cuts, leaving at least three in four households with lower after-tax incomes.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"There is no free lunch because, ultimately, the government faces a budget constraint," Furman said.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;wgselby@statesman.com, 445-3644&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/19993139-7503049541174139818?l=jaimekenedeno.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/JaimeKenedeo/~4/XXrjN4dEc_c" height="1" width="1"/&gt;</content><link rel="related" href="http://robeissler.blogspot.com/2007/09/why-would-texas-re-elect-loser-who.html#links" title="Texas Public Education Watchdog Authority: Why would Texas re elect a loser who ALWAYS votes against education and Texas children?" /><link rel="replies" type="application/atom+xml" href="http://jaimekenedeno.blogspot.com/feeds/7503049541174139818/comments/default" title="Post Comments" /><link rel="replies" type="text/html" href="http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=19993139&amp;postID=7503049541174139818" title="0 Comments" /><link rel="edit" type="application/atom+xml" href="http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19993139/posts/default/7503049541174139818?v=2" /><link rel="self" type="application/atom+xml" href="http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19993139/posts/default/7503049541174139818?v=2" /><link rel="alternate" type="text/html" href="http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/JaimeKenedeo/~3/XXrjN4dEc_c/texas-public-education-watchdog.html" title="Texas Public Education Watchdog Authority: Why would Texas re elect a loser who ALWAYS votes against education and Texas children?" /><author><name>Jaime Kenedeño</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/12787459880135027366</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel="http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail" width="32" height="32" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_wHuknpJGtBM/TThMqGpLKrI/AAAAAAAABf8/sSVtUI5fxo0/S220/libra.jpg" /></author><thr:total>0</thr:total><feedburner:origLink>http://jaimekenedeno.blogspot.com/2007/09/texas-public-education-watchdog.html</feedburner:origLink></entry><entry gd:etag="W/&quot;DEQAQHo8fyp7ImA9WB5XE00.&quot;"><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19993139.post-3927710998972850406</id><published>2007-07-12T22:59:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2007-07-12T22:59:01.477-07:00</updated><app:edited xmlns:app="http://www.w3.org/2007/app">2007-07-12T22:59:01.477-07:00</app:edited><title>South Texas Verdad: By the way, the Anton Haley who's such a Watts cheerleader on DU is better known here as Jaime Kenedeno, noted Communist hunter an</title><content type="html">

Garcia interceded and U.S. Sen. Lyndon Johnson arranged for Longoria to be buried in Arlington National Cemetery.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Joe Ortiz, League of United Latin American Citizens district director and national and state civil rights director of the American GI Forum, helped organize letter-writing campaigns when Muñiz was in Colorado asking for his transfer to Texas.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Ortiz didn't know about the transfer out of Three Rivers but said both LULAC and the American GI Forum will work toward getting Muñiz returned to Texas.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;"We are going to petition our legislators to see if they can do anything to bring him back," Ortiz said.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Contact Adriana Garza at 886-3618 or garzaa@caller.com &lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;Posted by geomatica on June 21, 2007 at 9:47 p.m. (Suggest removal)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I am certain that Ramsey Muniz was falsely imprisoned, but no matter what you believe, he was and is a model prisoner, and it is a complete waste of taxpayer money to be moving him all over, when it makes the most sense for him to be here near his family. He didn't kill anybody, and his treatment has been nothing but inhumane. Something has to be done about the inequities in our prison system. His punishment certainly does not fit his supposed crime.

But accounts of Saldano's good fortune uniformly failed to appreciate    what makes his reprieve truly newsworthy and potentially a landmark. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;Saving Saldano: Texas Confesses &lt;b style="color: black; background-color: rgb(160, 255, 255);"&gt;Error&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;table align="right" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"&gt;&lt;tbody&gt;&lt;tr&gt; &lt;td colspan="2" height="14"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/td&gt; &lt;/tr&gt;&lt;tr&gt; &lt;td width="26"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/td&gt; &lt;td align="center" valign="top"&gt;&lt;img src="http://writ.news.findlaw.com/images/illustrations/e-chair_cropped.jpg" alt="[Illustration]" height="206" width="171" /&gt;&lt;/td&gt; &lt;/tr&gt;&lt;tr&gt; &lt;td colspan="2" height="22"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/td&gt; &lt;/tr&gt;&lt;/tbody&gt;&lt;/table&gt;  &lt;p&gt;Saldano was not freed from the prospect of execution by the actions of a court    or even, as occasionally happens, by the clemency of a governor. His death sentence    was erased because Texas, through its newly created office of the solicitor    general, "confessed &lt;b style="color: black; background-color: rgb(160, 255, 255);"&gt;error&lt;/b&gt;" in his case -- that is, it admitted, despite    defeating Saldano's initial appeals in court, that his death sentence was illegally    obtained. Quite simply, this never happens, either in Texas or in the dozens    of other states with active death penalty laws. It is thus worth pausing to    consider the value and potential implications of Saldano's case as well as the    notion of &lt;b style="color: black; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 102);"&gt;confessing&lt;/b&gt; &lt;b style="color: black; background-color: rgb(160, 255, 255);"&gt;error&lt;/b&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;   Saldano had received a death sentence in part due to profoundly troubling testimony    by a state expert witness at the sentencing phase of his trial. The expert,    a clinical psychologist named Walter Quijano, suggested that Saldano should    be executed because, as an Hispanic, he posed a special risk of future dangerousness    to society. To support this astonishing conclusion, the expert pointed out that    Hispanics make up a disproportionately large amount of Texas' prison population. &lt;p&gt;It does not take a tenured professor of constitutional law to realize that    linking racial identity with a propensity for violence was not only bizarre    but also a violation of the equal protection clause. Indeed, that it should    take a confession of &lt;b style="color: black; background-color: rgb(160, 255, 255);"&gt;error&lt;/b&gt; by the state to correct this problem highlights at    least two problems in the current administration of the death penalty. First,    in seeking the death penalty, prosecutors sometimes overlook glaring illegalities.    The same flaw identified in Saldano's case infects at least seven other Texas    capital cases. Second (and perhaps even more distressing), courts, especially    state courts, are too often willing to overlook even obvious constitutional    flaws when reviewing death penalty cases. After all, before the state's confession    of &lt;b style="color: black; background-color: rgb(160, 255, 255);"&gt;error&lt;/b&gt;, Saldano had &lt;i&gt;lost&lt;/i&gt; all of his appeals.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Under these circumstances, one might think that confessions of &lt;b style="color: black; background-color: rgb(160, 255, 255);"&gt;error&lt;/b&gt; would    be, if not commonplace, at least occasional. On average, the Solicitor General    of the United States confesses &lt;b style="color: black; background-color: rgb(160, 255, 255);"&gt;error&lt;/b&gt; in two or three criminal cases every year    -- even though it is a safe bet that federal prosecutions, conducted by better    trained lawyers with greater supervision, are less likely to contain obvious    legal errors than their state counterparts. As the Supreme Court recognized    when endorsing the practice in 1942, "the public trust reposed in the law    enforcement officers of the Government requires that they be quick to confess    &lt;b style="color: black; background-color: rgb(160, 255, 255);"&gt;error&lt;/b&gt;, when, in their opinion, a miscarriage of justice may result from their    remaining silent." But as a practical matter, states never confess &lt;b style="color: black; background-color: rgb(160, 255, 255);"&gt;error&lt;/b&gt;    in death penalty cases (even though courts overturn roughly two-thirds of all    death sentences as legally infirm) -- and some states candidly admit that their    policy is never to confess &lt;b style="color: black; background-color: rgb(160, 255, 255);"&gt;error&lt;/b&gt;.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;Mutual Distrust&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Why? One crucial and usually overlooked factor is the deep antagonism that    has grown up over time between state death penalty prosecutors and the death    penalty abolitionist lawyers who seek to foil them in every case. The abolitionists,    prosecutors know all too well, never concede that their clients deserve the    death penalty or that the death penalty was legally imposed -- no matter how    flimsy their arguments in a given case. Rather, they use every procedural and    substantive trick in the book to delay executions. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;There can be no denying that such abolitionist tactics have angered and frustrated    state prosecutors. And one response to these understandable emotions has been    for prosecutors to mirror the fight-to-the-bitter-end approach of their opponents.  &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;The problem with this reciprocation, however, is simply that the ethical duties    of prosecutors and defense attorneys are vastly different. Defense attorneys    are duty-bound to scratch and claw to win for their clients. Prosecutors, by    contrast, despite striking hard blows, must never lose sight of their ultimate    obligation to do justice in every case. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;  &lt;script language="JavaScript" src="http://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/show_ads.js"&gt;&lt;/script&gt;&lt;script language="JavaScript1.1" src="http://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/ads?client=ca-findlaw_js&amp;dt=1181301393765&amp;amp;hl=en&amp;adsafe=high&amp;amp;num_ads=5&amp;output=js&amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;correlator=1181301393755&amp;channel=channel2&amp;amp;url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.google.com%2Fsearch%3Fq%3Dconfessing%2Berror%2Blazarus%26ie%3Dutf-8%26oe%3Dutf-8%26aq%3Dt%26rls%3Dorg.mozilla%3Aen-US%3Aofficial%26client%3Dfirefox-a&amp;kw_type=broad&amp;amp;kw=VOIP&amp;flash=9&amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;u_h=864&amp;u_w=1152&amp;amp;u_ah=830&amp;u_aw=1062&amp;amp;u_cd=32&amp;u_tz=-300&amp;amp;u_his=2&amp;u_java=true&amp;amp;u_nplug=21&amp;u_nmime=76"&gt;&lt;/script&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a name="continue"&gt;&lt;/a&gt; That may sound trite and perhaps overly idealistic, but it has a practical    side as well. Prosecutorial confessions of &lt;b style="color: black; background-color: rgb(160, 255, 255);"&gt;error&lt;/b&gt; -- knowing when to fold them,    as it is known -- establish credibility. They create trust in the system, a    sense that someone is being careful and exercising sound judgment, that extends    far beyond any single case. And that can make a world of difference for someone    like me, who is not morally opposed to the death penalty but skeptical of how    it is imposed.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;Death Penalty Politics&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;In addition, the reluctance of state prosecutors to confess &lt;b style="color: black; background-color: rgb(160, 255, 255);"&gt;error&lt;/b&gt; is a clear    reflection of how politics affects the death penalty. Up until now, anyway,    undoing a death sentence was akin to political suicide for an elected district    attorney or state attorney general, or for any state official with ambitions    for re-election or higher office. And yet the willingness of Texas' new solicitor    general to confess &lt;b style="color: black; background-color: rgb(160, 255, 255);"&gt;error&lt;/b&gt; in the Saldano case suggests a possible turning point.    With the current groundswell of death penalty opposition based on the possibility    of executing an innocent person, elected officials may now find some advantage    in approaching capital cases (even those where innocence is not an issue) with    a greater degree of care and honesty.&lt;/p&gt;   case will start a broad trend. But there is reason to believe that the tide    is indeed turning. On June 9, Texas Attorney General John Cornyn announced the    results of an investigation into other death penalty cases involving testimony    by state expert Walter Quijano. Cornyn acknowledged that Dr. Quijano had provided    testimony in six other death penalty cases similar to his improper testimony    in the Saldano case. Cornyn's staff has advised defense lawyers for the six    inmates now on death row that his office will not oppose efforts to overturn    their sentences based on Quijano's testimony. In response, a pessimist might    note that Texas is appealing a ruling in another capital case that the defendant    received inadequate counsel -- when, indisputably, his lawyer slept through    much of the trial. But doing the right thing has a contagious quality to it.    Or at least so we can hope.  &lt;/span&gt;  &lt;p align="center"&gt; &lt;span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-family:Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:13;"  &gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;a style="font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 13px; font-weight: bold;" href="http://boards.lp.findlaw.com/cgi-bin/WebX.fcgi?13@102.ZxwuaGEdqrE%5E3@.ef272cd"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;!-- END COMMENTARY--&gt;&lt;!-- BEGIN AUTHORS FOOTNOTE --&gt;     Edward &lt;b style="color: black; background-color: rgb(153, 255, 153);"&gt;Lazarus&lt;/b&gt;, a former federal prosecutor, is the legal correspondent    for Talk Magazine and the author of Closed Chambers: The Rise, Fall, and    Future of the Modern Supreme Court.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/19993139-4130451044952104950?l=jaimekenedeno.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/JaimeKenedeo/~4/ecHUNBAelBc" height="1" width="1"/&gt;</content><link rel="related" href="http://googleurself.blogspot.com/2007/06/when-carlos-valdez-confesses-error-does.html#links" title="Google Yourself Corpus Christi: When Carlos Valdez Confesses Error Does Not The Same Rule Apply?" /><link rel="replies" type="application/atom+xml" href="http://jaimekenedeno.blogspot.com/feeds/4130451044952104950/comments/default" title="Post Comments" /><link rel="replies" type="text/html" href="http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=19993139&amp;postID=4130451044952104950" title="0 Comments" /><link rel="edit" type="application/atom+xml" href="http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19993139/posts/default/4130451044952104950?v=2" /><link rel="self" type="application/atom+xml" href="http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19993139/posts/default/4130451044952104950?v=2" /><link rel="alternate" type="text/html" href="http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/JaimeKenedeo/~3/ecHUNBAelBc/google-yourself-corpus-christi-when.html" title="Google Yourself Corpus Christi: When Carlos Valdez Confesses Error Does Not The Same Rule Apply?" /><author><name>Jaime Kenedeño</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/12787459880135027366</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel="http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail" width="32" height="32" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_wHuknpJGtBM/TThMqGpLKrI/AAAAAAAABf8/sSVtUI5fxo0/S220/libra.jpg" /></author><thr:total>0</thr:total><feedburner:origLink>http://jaimekenedeno.blogspot.com/2007/06/google-yourself-corpus-christi-when.html</feedburner:origLink></entry><entry gd:etag="W/&quot;C0YESXs_eip7ImA9WB5TGU4.&quot;"><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19993139.post-8657749345439437942</id><published>2007-06-03T21:25:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2007-06-03T21:25:08.542-07:00</updated><app:edited xmlns:app="http://www.w3.org/2007/app">2007-06-03T21:25:08.542-07:00</app:edited><title>CCISD: Dear CCISD Trustees, Without Due Process &amp; Community Input; No Choice Will Be Bona-Fide</title><content type="html">

This concept is how CCISD manipulates. Think about it? Investigations, Colloquial Intelligence, Manipulation of one’s JOB opportunities, personal &amp;amp; political missions and nanotechnology to forecast, design and carry out plans ranging from 0 to at least a good 20 years. &lt;a href="http://texasworkforcecommission.blogspot.com/"&gt;WIA&lt;/a&gt; slush fund is all about the final data in each category. There are many exemptive solutions &amp; creative methods that are encouraged. The &lt;a href="http://texasworkforcecommission.blogspot.com/"&gt;WIA&lt;/a&gt; allows the creation of multiple programs and agencies to create JOBS or JOB training. WIA is the DARE program, COPS program, Communities in Schools, and anything they can draw up a quick blueprint of. Innovation and Malleability produce stellar new programs from dedicated grant writers given the concepts and goals of a brainstorm. This is a brilliant concept for our youth. The problem is the adults take candy from the babies. CCISD is way to big for their britches. A board much too elevated to consider input from the community. Such audacity to condescend to engagement of the community they fleece in the justification “they know WATT is best for us”. Furthermore, contrary to their schmoozing persona-ism they do not know it all “we wouldn’t understand the process so why do we need to know how they conduct the business of running our school district?”. We would never understand anyway? The concern is to make the numbers JIVE with each other and the terminology is dynamic so are the variables applicable for each method of calculation.&lt;span style=""&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%;"&gt;&lt;!--[if !supportEmptyParas]--&gt;

The Lottery when legislated was for the Education of Texas Students. Finally, the Private Sector is funded under the WIA slush fund for Corporate Welfare Recipients under the Guise of a Welfare Reform or Welfare to Work / JOB generating program to help the poor. The rich are getting richer in the name of helping the poor. And one needs to always remember it is both parties dippin into the creative crony contractualism. Give it a title, write a grant and set up a front office with a computer and a sign; then get some brochures and a few token clients and funnel the Avarice in a shell game like manner and voila a new ranch or a new house maybe an agency hummer or King Ranch Pickup Truck with a magnetic sign. Give a few JOBS to your network affiliates and send the clients to perform community based work and get rich and richer doing it. Ask Mary Cano or Oscar Martinez to explain it in detail. Charmed I'm sure.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;TFT LEGISLATIVE HOTLINE--FRIDAY, MAY 25, 2007&lt;br /&gt;&gt;(copyright 2007 Texas Federation of Teachers)&lt;br /&gt;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&gt;Proposed State Budget Shortchanges Schools and Educators; Keep Up the Fight&lt;br /&gt;&gt;For House TRS Plan; House at a Standstill as Speaker Clings to Power&lt;br /&gt;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&gt;Proposed Budget Shortchanges Public Schools, Education Employees: TFT&lt;br /&gt;&gt;President Linda Bridges put out a press statement today deploring the&lt;br /&gt;&gt;results of the House-Senate conference committee on the 2008-2009 budget.&lt;br /&gt;&gt;The state budget plan in House Bill 1 still must win the approval of&lt;br /&gt;&gt;majorities in both the House and Senate. As President Bridges' statement&lt;br /&gt;&gt;below explains, HB 1 in its current form does not deserve that approval:&lt;br /&gt;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&gt;"Education and educators would be shortchanged badly in the budget proposed&lt;br /&gt;&gt;by House-Senate conferees this afternoon. Based on the information&lt;br /&gt;&gt;currently&lt;br /&gt;&gt;available, school funding would remain static, not even getting back to the&lt;br /&gt;&gt;level of state and local funding school districts had in 2002 in real&lt;br /&gt;&gt;terms, after you take inflation into account. The $850-a-year&lt;br /&gt;&gt;cost-of-living pay raise for teachers passed by the House last month would&lt;br /&gt;&gt;shrivel to about $425, according to the legislative budget staff. If paid&lt;br /&gt;&gt;out to all teachers across the board, this would amount to less than $25 a&lt;br /&gt;&gt;month after taxes and deductions--not even enough to cover the cost of&lt;br /&gt;&gt;rising average health-care premiums. And the conferees took pains today to&lt;br /&gt;&gt;say the money would not even have to be paid out across the board to all&lt;br /&gt;&gt;teachers.&lt;br /&gt;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&gt;"Worst of all is what this budget proposal would do regarding TRS pension&lt;br /&gt;&gt;benefits. The bill would withhold an eminently affordable and exceedingly&lt;br /&gt;&gt;modest pension boost--a 13th check for TRS retirees--unless other&lt;br /&gt;&gt;legislation passes&lt;br /&gt;&gt;to impose new levies on all current school employees. The only way retirees&lt;br /&gt;&gt;would get a 13th check, under this scheme devised by Sen. Robert Duncan,&lt;br /&gt;&gt;would be if active school employees pay a higher contribution rate, taking&lt;br /&gt;&gt;roughly $50 million a year out of their pockets. This plan totally&lt;br /&gt;&gt;contradicts the House legislation passed unanimously on Wednesday that&lt;br /&gt;&gt;would provide a 13th check for retirees fully funded by the state, without&lt;br /&gt;&gt;imposing any new levies on active employees.&lt;br /&gt;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&gt;"In short, school districts under this budget would regain none of the&lt;br /&gt;&gt;ground they have lost financially, teachers would get at best a measly pay&lt;br /&gt;&gt;raise of less than $25 a month that wouldn't even keep up with inflation,&lt;br /&gt;&gt;and 300,000 school support personnel would suffer an actual pay cut, as a&lt;br /&gt;&gt;result of the higher levies imposed on them for TRS with no compensating&lt;br /&gt;&gt;increase in pay. You have to give the&lt;br /&gt;&gt;conferees credit--it takes a certain ingenuity to come up with a plan this&lt;br /&gt;&gt;bad at a time when the state is sitting on a record-high budget surplus."&lt;br /&gt;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&gt;Keep Up the Fight for House TRS Plan! At this writing members of the Texas&lt;br /&gt;&gt;House are standing firm in support of their unanimously approved plan for a&lt;br /&gt;&gt;13th check for TRS retirees, funded by an increase in the state&lt;br /&gt;&gt;contribution rate to 6.7 percent, with no new costs imposed on active&lt;br /&gt;&gt;school employees. Several Senate offices reported to us today that they are&lt;br /&gt;&gt;receiving a high volume of calls in support of this House version of SB&lt;br /&gt;&gt;1846--as well they should be. The Senate alternative proposed by Sen.&lt;br /&gt;&gt;Robert Duncan, Republican of Lubbock, is a thinly veiled attempt to shift&lt;br /&gt;&gt;state costs for TRS pensions onto active employees and their school&lt;br /&gt;&gt;districts.&lt;br /&gt;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&gt;Duncan let slip the real agenda during floor debate on his plan,&lt;br /&gt;&gt;noting that increasing the TRS levy on active employees and requiring a&lt;br /&gt;&gt;contribution from school districts could "free up general revenue for other&lt;br /&gt;&gt;purposes." In other words, this scheme would allow the state to save money&lt;br /&gt;&gt;by shifting costs onto education employees and local taxpayers.&lt;br /&gt;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&gt;Duncan's staff in response to callers today reportedly was claiming that&lt;br /&gt;&gt;the freshly hatched budget deal (see above) means that there's no money and&lt;br /&gt;&gt;no time left to provide this session for the 6.7-percent state contribution&lt;br /&gt;&gt;rate that the House proposes. But that's not so. The legislature has&lt;br /&gt;&gt;billions of dollars left to allocate right now, and it would take only a&lt;br /&gt;&gt;tiny fraction of that treasure--less than 1 percent of it, in fact--for the&lt;br /&gt;&gt;state to get to the 6.7-percent TRS contribution rate from the 6.58 percent&lt;br /&gt;&gt;already built into the budget. Even if the budget bill passes in its&lt;br /&gt;&gt;current form, the&lt;br /&gt;&gt;House plan for a fully state-paid 13th check with no new costs imposed on&lt;br /&gt;&gt;active employees could also still pass and become law with full force and&lt;br /&gt;&gt;effect, delivering a 13th check in September.&lt;br /&gt;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&gt;The upshot is that you have an opportunity right now to shape the outcome&lt;br /&gt;&gt;of this TRS benefit fight in the critical remaining days before adjournment&lt;br /&gt;&gt;of the legislative session on Monday. Just send the letter on this issue to&lt;br /&gt;&gt;your state senator from the TFT Web site. If you don't know your state&lt;br /&gt;&gt;senator, you can find out quickly when you go to that Web letter.&lt;br /&gt;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&gt;Speaker's Grip on Gavel Threatened: The Texas House came to a standstill at&lt;br /&gt;&gt;8 PM this evening, as Speaker of the House Tom Craddick shut off House&lt;br /&gt;&gt;members' microphones and called a three-hour recess to head off a&lt;br /&gt;&gt;rank-and-file revolt&lt;br /&gt;&gt;threatening to oust him from the speaker's chair. The Midland Republican is&lt;br /&gt;&gt;under heavy fire from both fellow Republicans and Democrats for what many&lt;br /&gt;&gt;consider his tyrannical rule of the House. Tonight he gave them new grist&lt;br /&gt;&gt;for their argument, by ruling that there is no appeal to the membership as&lt;br /&gt;&gt;a whole if he blocks the parliamentary procedure needed to oust him. His&lt;br /&gt;&gt;ruling, epitomizing the arbitrary, one-man rule of which Speaker Craddick&lt;br /&gt;&gt;stands accused, apparently has led to the resignation of the House&lt;br /&gt;&gt;parliamentarian in protest this evening.

Ask Denise about the "Bachelorettes' dancing w/ her hubby?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;If the situation was reversed I would definitely be the bad guy. Maybe I should go yell at Juan's next event "WHO GIVES A F//K" and chant the CCREDC mantra Chorus. "JUAN MORE" "JUAN MORE" and ask him if he remembers?&lt;/span&gt; Juan must be held to a higher standard. Keep the reigns tight on him and everytime he starts to veer byte his a$$.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;LOL&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Joe Elizondo, surely he is a gentle man and a member of our leadership INFRASTRUCTURE? However, there must be HOUSECLEANING and the "Pulling of Weeds" that poisons us from the Top Down.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Elizondo began chanting JUAN MORE, JUAN MORE over and over (increasing in menacing heckle tone). Everyone ignored him so he continued with the JUAN MORE, JUAN MORE escalation. Then the Guitar Guy with the HAt "straight off of the sunset strip" was suggesting songs (lead ins). Elizondo yelled, "WHO GIVES A FUCK" and some other MINUTIA (uncalled for). He was directing his disrespect at the stage. My wife &amp; I at the same time said, "HEY" and we turned to him with a meeting of the eyes. His group separated and Elizondo departed in a new truck. The others with him were friendly &amp;amp; charming before and after.&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/19993139-9115537288247777442?l=jaimekenedeno.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/JaimeKenedeo/~4/6Tmv-9OuYJU" height="1" width="1"/&gt;</content><link rel="related" href="http://laparra.blogspot.com/2007/05/nobody-kicked-joe-elizondo-off-of.html#links" title="Nueces De La Parra: Nobody kicked Joe Elizondo off of the CCREDC Board.

It is a beacon of hope beckoning further private commercial development in an area that will now, thanks to them, only boom.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Thank you for including the Robs-town area in your vision of prosperity for Nueces County, recognizing that we are people who are worthy and able to evolve our city into something better than it ever was.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Though the road be long and bumpy, our goal, though it be distant, is within sight. The sight of it strengthens our resolve against those who for whatever reason see our betterment as something that lessens instead of strengthens them.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It takes vision and ability to see goodness where it was said that goodness was dead, to grow the light that changes hearts and minds and deeds.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Purpose and belief now walk with us.

(unfinished)SYNERGY AND DIVERSITY Interestingly, diversity is a prerequisite for truly dynamic synergy. If everyone in a conversation has the same perspective, we'll see only low-level synergy, if any, but certainly nothing very exciting or productive. However if there are lots of diverse views, AND if those differences are allowed to surface, AND if there are good communication processes, then those differences will almost certainly stimulate a blossoming of ideas no one thought about before they entered the conversation. The whole can become greater than the sum of its parts to the extent those parts are different, and to the extent those differences are handled creatively. By Tom Atlee The Fernandez Cause: The Sum of it’s parts? First, allow me to acknowledge Homer Roel Villarreal and El Defenzor for a job well done. The story that you authored and ran in El Defenzor is now an international article. The Fernandez Case and "Poster Boy" were ostracized shunned &amp; all alone except for the treacherous, blood sucking, back stabbing and deceiving attorneys.The Caller Time wanted nothing to do with the story as did most who were afraid of Job &amp;amp; financial opportunities being modified. KFATSO controlled and the Fernandez' were oppressed &amp; suppressed.El Defenzor stood up and began to spread a message. It was a message of Evolution. Defenzor called out to the foot soldiers and told us of a cause to Advocate. The Fernandez Case became the Fernandez Cause because it was supposed to help a deserved people. Most were poor and oppressed through actions of the "Old Patron System" and the Local Jeffes or "Political Bosses". John G Kenedy Jr. was a very powerful Jeffe! He was a drunk, corrupt, self-satisfying party boy that never grew up. He was handed everything to him on a platter; even the Kenedy County Bench. He was not a good man for he never took responsibility for his offspring. He was a coward and denied his own children. The Catholic Church knows who they are; but his fortune was more important than Don Gregorio's family.El Defenzor went to bat for Ann Fernandez &amp; her offspring! THE STORY HOMER WROTE AND MARKETED FOR ANN FERNANDEZ IS NOW PREVALENT IN THE MEDIA WORLD. BECAUSE HOMERO BACKED UP THE FERNADEZ' SO DID THE DEFENZOR NETWORK OF FAMILYS AND FOOT SOLDIERS.Defenzor has carried and still carries the advertisements promoting the Fernandez Cause. Homero was asked to write a book for the Fernandez Cause; so, he wrote a book for the Fernandez Cause. El Defenzor helps so many in need and give and give and give. Can they do this without money? Are they greedy to expect to be compensated or should they have done all of this for free? Any money they do receive is spent helping more people because that is the way they are!Defenzor (on behalf of Ray Fernandez) brought us in. I was contacted by Ray Fernandez on June 7, 2004. We met Dr. Fernandez &amp; his wife at “On the Border” Restaurant to listen to each other’s goals and terms. We were asked if we were willing to dedicate our diligence (on Defenzor &amp;amp; Kenedyranch) to a cause we believed in. When asked what we wanted in return; we established our primary concern: the unconditional confidentiality of our identities. After agreeing, we wanted to work. We answered a job and a small piece of land, while reiterating the unconditional protection of our identity. We suggested we could earn a Permanent Professional Position by our performance, when the Ann Fernandez Family realized fruition. This was the agreement for our dedicated services to the Message Board Advocacy of the Fernandez Family. We came to refer to it as the Fernandez Cause as it snowballed into much more meaningful and evolutionary force! The Fernandez Cause as a whole, became greater than the sum of its parts! We felt it! Synergy:“The pieces of a bicycle, spread out on the garage floor, are not a bicycle. Only the pieces assembled -- that is, arranged and connected into proper relationship -- are a bicycle”. “Dynamic synergy, involves interactions that create, generate, or enable something”.Subsequently, we became the primary researchers as the Message Board Advocacy required extensive research. As our work ethic and dedication instilled energy &amp; will to a stalled out cause so did the assurances (by the Fernandez’) of a greater reward. Commitments of a Law School in South Texas (with an ethics watchdog student body) and a new Kenedy Board of Directors (transparently structured) were established. We became very close to the Cause as if it were our own!As the problems trickled down (from attorneys who claim no remedy) we researched the laws and explained “how to” to the Fernandez’. We found “Gonzalez vs. Reliant” which is a statutory probate case very similar to the Fernandez case. Both are in the TX Supreme Court and Gonzalez is first in line. We accomplished and overcame for the Fernandez’ Cause many an instance. However, the accomplishment of winning souls over to a cause and enabling the little people to speak up without fear of retaliation is our greatest accomplishment.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a class="l" onmousedown="return clk(this.href,'res','1','')" href="http://www.dailykos.com/story/2006/2/20/63441/6163"&gt;Daily Kos: Ask us?

When care is pressing you down a bit, Rest, if you must, but DON''T YOU QUIT! Life is queer with its twists and turns, As every one of us sometimes learns, And many a failure turns about When he might have won had he stuck it out. Often the struggler has given up When he might have captured the victors cup; And he learned too late when the night came down, How close he was to the golden crown. Don''t give up though the pace seems slow, You may succeed with another blow, Success is failure turned inside out- The silver lining of the clouds of doubt. And you never can tell how close you are, It may be near when it seems so far. So stick to the fight when you''re hardest hit... It''s when things seem worst that you MUST NOT QUIT! ~Anonymous&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/19993139-113868175800032027?l=jaimekenedeno.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/JaimeKenedeo/~4/yQqZcGhhpRQ" height="1" width="1"/&gt;</content><link rel="replies" type="application/atom+xml" href="http://jaimekenedeno.blogspot.com/feeds/113868175800032027/comments/default" title="Post Comments" /><link rel="replies" type="text/html" href="http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=19993139&amp;postID=113868175800032027" title="1 Comments" /><link rel="edit" type="application/atom+xml" href="http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19993139/posts/default/113868175800032027?v=2" /><link rel="self" type="application/atom+xml" href="http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19993139/posts/default/113868175800032027?v=2" /><link rel="alternate" type="text/html" href="http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/JaimeKenedeo/~3/yQqZcGhhpRQ/dont-you-quit.html" title="DONT YOU QUIT" /><author><name>Jaime Kenedeño</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/12787459880135027366</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel="http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail" width="32" height="32" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_wHuknpJGtBM/TThMqGpLKrI/AAAAAAAABf8/sSVtUI5fxo0/S220/libra.jpg" /></author><thr:total>1</thr:total><feedburner:origLink>http://jaimekenedeno.blogspot.com/2006/01/dont-you-quit.html</feedburner:origLink></entry><entry gd:etag="W/&quot;CkMDQ3s6eyp7ImA9WxNTGEw.&quot;"><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19993139.post-113868021496857539</id><published>2006-01-30T20:03:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2009-08-20T16:21:12.513-07:00</updated><app:edited xmlns:app="http://www.w3.org/2007/app">2009-08-20T16:21:12.513-07:00</app:edited><title>The South Texas Millionaires Club is We must work diligently for the rest of this session to make sure TLR does not immunize tortfeasors from their vi</title><content type="html">

Posted on December 25, 2005 at 11:46:15 PM by Jaime Kenedeño&lt;br /&gt;“Vilma Luna is our hero, and Jamie Capelo is our enemy. First, Vilma wisely established a working relationship with the Republicans in control of the House.”&lt;br /&gt;How many were TLR republicans?&lt;br /&gt;“Second, she arranged for me and her to have a meeting with Rep. Joe Nixon, the author of H.B. 4, and did an outstanding job negotiating with him to save our practice.”&lt;br /&gt;Rep. Joe Nixon, the author of H.B. 4 NOT Jaime Capelo!&lt;br /&gt;“Third, I wrote an amendment that created large exceptions to the products bill as originally written, including exceptions re: adequate standards, misleading the government, or failing to warn of defects, and she caused Nixon to meet with us, and to actually consider it.”&lt;br /&gt;Loopholes for Mikal Watt$ “to save his practice”?&lt;br /&gt;"Fourth, Vilma negotiated with him, and convinced him to convince TLR that he should look at the amendment, which he agreed to do."&lt;br /&gt;Watt did Vilma Luna do that convinced Joe Nixon to look at the amendment?&lt;br /&gt;Rhetoric is usually backed up by something.&lt;br /&gt;"Fifth, Greg Gowan and Alex Miller worked diligently with Vilma, as did Joseph Barrientos, to feed her with specific information needed to continue to lobby the other side.&lt;br /&gt;Lobby the other side?&lt;br /&gt;Feed Vilma Luna with specific information?&lt;br /&gt;Are these guys registered lobbyist?&lt;br /&gt;Is Vilma Luna a Lobbyist, an employee of Watts, or a representative of the people?&lt;br /&gt;What is the “pecking order”?&lt;br /&gt;“ Finally, Alex Miller traveled to San Antonio to write specific wording necessary to accommodate the demands of the other side, while allowing us to do what we needed to do.

At 12:30 a.m. this morning, the house passed H.B. 4 with Vilma's amendments in it”.&lt;br /&gt;Watt were the demands of the other side?&lt;br /&gt;Who is the other side?&lt;br /&gt;TLR &amp;amp; Mikal Watts were playing “Good Cop Bad Cop”?&lt;br /&gt;Watt did Mikal’s crew “need” to do?&lt;br /&gt;Watt made Vilma’s amendments “elite” enough to “pass” and “loophole” the bill?&lt;br /&gt;"Everyone in the firm needs to take a moment to send an email to Vilma at her Texas House email address (attached) to tell her thanks for saving us. Additionally, the other referenced members of the firm are to be congratulated. Finally, keep a long memory. Jaime Capelo tried to shut us down, and we must not forget that when the next election cycle comes around."&lt;br /&gt;Watt did Jaime Capelo do for Tony “Two Fer” Canales, Christus, KFATSO &amp;amp; supposedly for the Doctors (the Malpractice insurance went up after this). The Health Care is the one to benefit.

We win cases only when the jury buys this argument anyway.&lt;br /&gt;Section 2 allows us to attack the credibility of the product manufacturer's involvement or participation in the formulation of the federal standards. In the auto context specifically, we now get to get into evidence all the political b.s. the manufacturers pulled in the '60s and '70s in getting these standards watered down.&lt;br /&gt;Section 3 allows us to resurrect a post-sale duty to warn in Texas. under the Dion v.

Since 15 U.S.C. Sec. 1411 was rescinded, and watered down, it was a necessary amendment to allow us to continue to make the arguments we used to make that the manufacturer knew its product was defective and failed to recall it.&lt;br /&gt;Most importantly, the previous iterations of the amendment were stripped; i.e.&lt;br /&gt;(a) the previous version's immunity becomes a only rebuttal presumption; (b) level of proof to overcome presumption is reduced from clear and convincing evidence to preponderance of the evidence; (c) the previous exception contained separate provisions and the word "AND," meaning you had to prove all of them to not be summary judgment'd out: now, it says "OR", which gives us the ability to pick our exception, to tailor them to the facts of the case. (d) the previous exception provided for the fraud on the government stuff to apply only if it was information required to be given by the manufacturer, it now applies to any information they gave to the government, which is a critical distinction in our car cases, where almost all the information given is through the voluntary comments provisions. (e) the legislative history is going to be very helpful on this, because we went from a draconian version, to one that includes these exceptions, which should be very helpful to us in convincing trial courts that this kind of evidence should come in.&lt;br /&gt;Watt he is really saying is This cost me a lot of money.
