or texas or one of the states with no income tax. then you also had some little taxes in vermont, but maryland raises taxes. and new york state, new york state cuomo promised he was going to go all year without a tax increase and he was so good up until december 7th when he had a $2.5 billion tax increase. then he folded, massive tax increase. five states raised taxes, but 45 refused and cut spending. this is a change. the other team is going to keep coming back and demanding tax increases because that is what they do because they cannot run their campaign without government resources flowing through it. they're going to be as insistent and monomaniacal as a teenage boy on a prom date. they'll ask for the same thing in different ways. oh, no, this isn't an environmental tax, no this is -- it's always the same thing, guys. just always -- it doesn't do any good at all to say no no no, yes. okay? you have to keep saying no all the way through. even mr. cuomo through the end of december. and this is a fight. now, our friend obama now has

cisco systems, dell, or texas instruments? the "dividend" pays off after the break. >>> just before the break, as part of the "dividend," we asked, which stock is the better performer so far this year? cisco systems, dell, or texas instruments? now, the payoff. dell. >> thumbs up from an advisory panel today, giving a boost not just to the stock which is at a 14-year plus high, but also to biotechs in general. its rival, one of the big gainers. two years ago also got an fda advisory panel not to be rejected by the fda and told to do more study on the heart risks. apparently the market now saying that is not likely to be as big of a deal for them. arena faces review in june. it is not getting as big a boost today. in fact, negative this afternoon. among the new highs today, ebay is one of the big gainers here, one of the big heavy listers. o'reilly automotive at an all-time high as folks hold on to their cars longer and use the replacement parts. >> thanks very much for that, bertha. about 20 minutes away from the closing bell.

if you represent a district like a state like alabama or texas, you're likely to be looking for projects that are close to your backyard. what do you think, bonnie? >> caller: yes. can you hear me? >> we can. >> caller: okay. i think they're all crooks. they dictate and everything for this. money from the taxpayers. and i think obama is the biggest crook of all. and eric holder is another biggest crook of all. and the reason young people can't find a job is because they can't pass a drug test. my son is 55 years old. they could not pass the drug test. and he got the job. and i'd like to keep obama off the tv for a while. i'm so tired of listening to his big mouth. >> bonnie, let's focus on earmarks. do you have a comment on that? >> caller: yes. if they would use the good things but they use them for just the things like the snail crossings and crab crossings and everything else. >> members of congress in "the washington post" defending earmarks. they say they are worth while projects, projects that their constituents have asked them to get. let's hear from misty from austin, texas. hi t

very little retrogression and in the place where there has been retrogression they have rejected or in texas litigating the retrogressive nature of the legislative and state plans. this is one of the things i think is difficult to get a true handle on. how do you know a statute designed to deter or prevent something is working and so people oftentimes say doj isn't objecting very much, that's a sign that the voting rights act isn't needed but of course that's like saying we have a law against murder, we don't need it anymore because few people are being killed. it may really be the presence of the law is the thing that deters or prevents the behavior, moreover the voting rights act i think now has become so institutionalized and section five review become so institutionalized in a lot of places that it takes jurisdictions off the hook of having to have tough conversations because they simply said doj will never preclude this. instead of it would be the wrong thing to do, they say doj won't preclude so we can't do this and provides a lot of political cover to jurisdictions to simply do what i

belong to someone living in kansas or massachusetts or hawaii as they do to someone in louisiana or texas. these are resources that should help every american not just a select few. the revenue generated from these public resources goes to the federal treasury to help pay for medicare and medicaid and helps to pay for our national defense. we can no longer afford to continue this diversion of taxpayer funds to these four states. we need this revenue to reduce our deficit and get our fiscal house in order. i had offered an amendment that would have recovered the $150 billion we are going to be sending to these four states that the majority did not make in order, and now this amendment would take us in the complete opposite direction. so i commend the gentleman from louisiana. i can't blame him for trying to get even more federal money directed to his home state under this program. but if you come from one of the 46 states that is not -- let me enumerate, louisiana mississippi, alabama or texas, you would have to be crazy to vote for this amendment because they are going to take money away

or have someone like that either. a few names -- a couple names were tossed out, gerald ford, george bush of texas, although a few hours before nixon chose agnew, he actually was talking to i believe rogers morton of maryland or i believe it's rogers. he had a brother in kentucky, was it thurston. he said, rogers, if you want the vice presidential nomination i'll give it to you. morton said no, no, so he settled on agnew. there wasn't a real ground swell for anyone, but also nixon couldn't afford to alienate anyone. there was -- he still had a tiny bit of fear that if i nominate someone that the party doesn't like, the floor might revote and maybe they might go for reagan. so, yes, it defies common sense but consider nixon's options, he didn't have any. and agnew alienated nobody because the question was spiro who? >> also, by the way, you use the word puzzle. 1968 look at those times, that year. the whole year was a total puzzle. you have assassination of robert kennedy, martin luther king, two conventio conventions, total chaos at both of them but particularly at the democratic convention, vietnam war going crazy. th

in addition, we know that in texas, the democratic officials controlled everything through the entire political system. there wasn't a single elected republican state or county official anywhere in the state of texas. the way some of the vote counts is done in texas is truly bizarre and spectacular is the way to describe it without going into the details. i would suggest that more vets were stolen in texas than in illinois in reality. in 1968 richard nixon copied kennedy's 1960 formula to run in the primarieprimaries, to show popularity by winning in primaries and to use television advertising in order to massage the electorate and win the election. the begger budget and the bigger staff really mattered. well, that's good because i'm at the end. as nixon hinted in a letter just before the -- so the 1960 election was a big disappointment and republican party officials were angry with him because they believed that the underlying fundamentals of the economy and peace and prosperity, eight years and so forth should have given nixon the victory and of course, one does wonder if he only hadn't done the debate in chicago under those sort of strange conditio

so when you look at the culture in austin, texas, or silicon val valley or pockets all over the country, here in new york, in miami at the launch pad, we can go all over the country and find this. they all have one thing in common, which is they have investors, entrepreneurs, educators, with a clear goal that is the efficiency of the output of whatever it is. the recycling battery. whatever the thing is. we're sort of more lost if i get ahead of you, that's bad for you. i have to take you down. now both of us are fighting with each other instead of all of us saying are we getting where we're going which is what you see is a lot of the systems in other countries. >> there's no reason we can't do great in this it global economy if we get out of our own way. there's a great article by apple saying jobs aren't coming back. why was that? because the companies in china were doing a better job of competing for apple's business. >> that's a different -- if you included 50% currency discount. if you consider a better job, you're going to get me worked up on that. >> we can talk about that. point
