keith olbermann and current
most of you know that Keith Olbermann and his show on current has ceased.
Here is a statement from his twitter account on the subject:
"My full statement:
I'd like to apologize to my viewers and my staff for the failure of Current TV.
Editorially, Countdown had never been better. But for more than a year I have been imploring Al Gore and Joel Hyatt to resolve our issues internally, while I've been not publicizing my complaints, and keeping the show alive for the sake of its loyal viewers and even more loyal staff. Nevertheless, Mr. Gore and Mr. Hyatt, instead of abiding by their promises and obligations and investing in a quality news program, finally thought it was more economical to try to get out of my contract.
It goes almost without saying that the claims against me implied in Current's statement are untrue and will be proved so in the legal actions I will be filing against them presently. To understand Mr. Hyatt’s “values of respect, openness, collegiality and loyalty,” I encourage you to read of a previous occasion Mr. Hyatt found himself in court for having unjustly fired an employee. That employee’s name was Clarence B. Cain. http://nyti.ms/HueZsa
In due course, the truth of the ethics of Mr. Gore and Mr. Hyatt will come out. For now, it is important only to again acknowledge that joining them was a sincere and well-intentioned gesture on my part, but in retrospect a foolish one. That lack of judgment is mine and mine alone, and I apologize again for it.

NLRB Investigates Claims of Post-Lockout Union-Busting at Honeywell Plant - Working In These Times

Last Wednesday, a National Labor Relations Board agent arrived in Metropolis, Ill., to investigate unfair labor practices charges made by uranium workers who work at a Honeywell International facility there. The workers, members of United Steelworkers Local 7-669 who went back to work for the multinational energy and security company last August after a long lockout, charge that the company has sought to illegally limit the union's power and failed to follow the terms of their new three-year contract.
On the USW local's website, union members claim that Honeywell has attempted to limit their free speech about workplace conditions and has forbidden workers from talking to other workers about safety problems. They also say the company has violated the new contract by failing to comply with the grievance procedure and laying off union members before laying off nonunion contractors hired during the lockout. And the union claims Honeywell has engaged in a campaign to fire key union members.

2012 USW Health and Safety Conference Closing Statement
I was union safety-man and union safety chairman for well over 15 years at the American Can plant 083 in St. Louis, Missouri.
I am proud of the work that the workers and management did in this area. Managers for the most part did quickly take care of safety woes that was in their power to fix in a rapid manner, although some did bitch, moan and otherwise cry.
I was also impressed with the USW safety program and folks. good to see they still on the ball

No ‘magic potion’ will make the GOP budget plan work
sorry for ad
Jennifer Granholm is joined by Dean Baker, co-director of the Center for Economic and Policy Research, to discuss the GOP’s proposed budget plan. Dean Baker says Representative Paul Ryan’s budget plan not only cuts care to the country’s most vulnerable but “ignores all the evidence all around us” that proves these kinds of cuts just don’t work.
“(Paul Ryan) acts as though there will be some magic,” Baker said, ”that if we hand over (health care) to the states that the governors have some magic potion that will make all their dollars go further. Well, we’ve tried this… and it costs more.”

promotional tour for health care reform stopped in St. Louis Monday to commemorate the two-year anniversary of the Affordable Care Act as challenges to the law are expected to reach the U.S. Supreme Court next week.
Secretary of Health and Human Resources Kathleen Sebelius spoke to a supportive crowd at the Forest Park campus of St. Louis Community College about the benefits for retirees on Medicare.
Each day this week, Sebelius and other administration officials will be visiting swing states to speak on various aspects of health care reform. Sebelius spoke in St. Louis at the invitation of the Alliance for Retired Americans.
"Millions of Americans have begun to see benefits already from the Affordable Care Act," Sebelius said. "In spite of some of the predictions, Medicare has actually gotten stronger."
Changes to Medicare have saved 5.1 million people who are disabled or older than 65 more than $3.2 billion on prescription medicines, according to the health department.
Under the law, people on Medicare who reach the "doughnut hole" gap in prescription drug coverage have received $250 rebates and 50 percent discounts on drugs. The gap in coverage is expected to be closed by 2020.

The Missouri Republican Party had its John McCain moment on Saturday.
In October 2008, Mr. McCain, the U.S. senator from Arizona and the Republican nominee for president, famously grabbed the microphone from an elderly woman at a town hall in Lakeville, Minn., and gently chided her for calling then-Sen. Barack Obama an Arab.
Mr. McCain was courageous and decent that day, but it's worth noting that his campaign quietly had helped stoke the "Obama is a Muslim" lies during that presidential contest. He was reaping what he sowed.
The Missouri GOP did some reaping itself on Saturday when angry, screaming partisans shut down the caucus in St. Charles County, sending the process of choosing Republican presidential delegates into further disarray.
While the biggest problems appeared to be in the caucus in St. Peters, the largest among those held Saturday, there were plenty of problems elsewhere, as rabid supporters of Republican candidates Ron Paul and Rick Santorum clashed, and folks who profess to belong to the same party couldn't even agree on the rules, let alone their candidate.
The caucus system always has been messy. It's one reason Missouri abandoned it after supporters of extremist Pat Buchanan took over the 1996 voting process in the Show-Me State.

Robert Kuttner, co-editor of The American Prospect and a senior fellow at Demos, and Eliot Spitzer, former governor of New York, discuss the nefarious intentions of the JOBS (Jumpstart Our Business Startups) Act. “The one thing we have going for us is, there are disclosure laws so that if investors have the wit to read the disclosures, they can protect themselves, and that’s what this retched piece of legislation would gut. Shame on anybody who votes for this,” says Kuttner.

Sen. Orrin Hatch, R-Utah, has it right. "Sending the IRS on a politically motivated witch hunt," he said Friday, "is simply unacceptable and could have a chilling impact on the constitutionally protected right to free speech."
Therefore, the IRS must scrupulously avoid any taint of political favoritism as it aggressively pursues investigations of possible tax code abuses by political advocacy groups. It must disregard the groups' liberal or conservative leanings, and, if it finds abuse, it must come down hard on the violators.
To be fair, that's not exactly what Mr. Hatch had in mind. The senior Republican on the Senate Finance Committee was trying to discourage the IRS from conducting such investigations, which he suspected were an attempt by Democrats to get the agency to impede fundraising and electoral spending activities by groups with conservative agendas.

Unexpected battle looms in Illinois primary

SPRINGFIELD, Ill. • Illinois' 12th Congressional District primaries this coming Tuesday were supposed to be among the year's sleepiest. Eleven-term incumbent Jerry Costello, a powerful Belleville Democrat and the state's senior congressman, appeared to be a shoo-in for re-election, with no primary challenger on the horizon and few Republicans anxious to take him on.
Then in early October, Costello unexpectedly announced he would retire after his current term.
It was the starting gun for a frantic race that no one saw coming.
"The Democrats were assuming they were safe in the 12th" until Costello's announcement, said political scientist Kent Redfield of the University of Illinois at Springfield. "It makes the map more complicated than they thought it would be and provides the Republicans with an opportunity."
That explains why the district's primaries have drawn a total of five candidates, three of them Republicans. The winners of each of the two party primaries will square off in the November general election in a region that has been in Democratic hands for well over a half-century — but which has been trending Republican in recent years.
Metro East voters on Tuesday will also help choose nominees for the 13th and 15th congressional districts. And voters across Illinois will nominate candidates for all 177 seats in the Illinois House and Senate, which, like the congressional seats, are under a new map because of this year's redistricting process.

Jonathan Cohn considers how opposition to the Affordable Care Act is impacting public opinion
Keith and Jonathan Cohn, senior editor of The New Republic and a senior fellow at Demos, discuss the public relations battle raging around the Affordable Care Act in the weeks leading up to a Supreme Court hearing on the legality of the health-care reform bill. Cohn contextualizes a revised forecast on the cost of the bill from the Congressional Budget Office and describes how skewed talking points relating to the bill are impacting public opinion: “You have this industry out there and you have the Republicans out there hammering away day after day: ‘It’s expensive. It’s going to destroy your liberty. It’s going to create death panels.’ You know, that’s going to have an effect. People are going to get confused, and it’s going to start to sink in.”

The Lord’s Resistance Army began fighting the government of Uganda in the mid-1980s partly as a response to the government’s marginalization of the people of the country’s north. It swiftly degenerated into one of the most brutal and merciless of armed groups, able to replenish its ranks only by abducting, terrorizing and brainwashing children to fight. Its forces, currently thought to number 150-300 fighters plus hundreds of captive civilians, left Uganda in 2005 and now operate in remote areas of Congo, South Sudan and the CAR, leaving a trail of death and destruction among all those in its path.

Topics:Africa, Lord's Resistance Army
As more than 50 million viewers on YouTube of the Kony2012 viral video now know, Joseph Kony, founder and leader of the Lord’s Resistance Army, is a wanted man with the blood of many people on his hands. We’ve spent years investigating the horrors perpetrated by the LRA in central Africa — Uganda, Democratic Republic of Congo, Central African Republic (CAR), and South Sudan. We gathered evidence at massacre sites — wooden clubs covered in dried blood, rubber strips from bicycle tires used to tie up the victims, and freshly dug graves – and spoke to hundreds of boys and girls forced to fight for his army or held captive as sex slaves. And we’re elated that #stopKony is a trending topic on Twitter – if anyone deserves global notoriety it’s Kony.The Lord’s Resistance Army began fighting the government of Uganda in the mid-1980s partly as a response to the government’s marginalization of the people of the country’s north.

Lawmaker Proposes Bill to Restrict Vasectomies Missouri
wonders in Missouri
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — The debate over women’s reproductive health is now hitting men right where it counts. A bill that would prevent men from having vasectomies unless it was to avoid serious injury or death was filed in the Missouri House of Representatives this week.
Representative Stacey Newman calls herself a member of the “Silent Seven.” She is one of seven democratic women who stood on the house floor for seven hours last week waiting to speak on the birth control issue.
Those seven women were never allowed to speak, so Newman is now speaking out in her own way.
“A vasectomy shall only be performed to avert the death of the man or avert serious risk,” or so says House Bill 1853 introduced on Wednesday by Newman.
“If it takes government interference in vasectomies for people to wake up and understand the absurdity. The restrictions that we women have to deal with that government keeps interfering in our person private medical decisions then this is what we have to do,” says Newman.
The bill, a statement from seven Democratic women who say they find it absurd that only men’s voices are being heard on the topic of birth control and women.

This documentary film about health care looks at the crisis from the perspective of ordinary people. It asks if they believe health care is a human right and if they support a single-payer, national health care system. It's also an unapologetic takedown of President Obama's fundamentally flawed health care legislation, the PPACA. The filmmakers argue that a mass movement must be built to abolish the for-profit health insurance industry. We document the fight in 2009 for single-payer that the mainstream media ignored.
