Roy Beck is "NumbersUSA.
"Google" Roy Beck, Paul R. Ehrlich, John P. Holdren -- "Birds of a feather flock together." These people are "watermelons."
They move back and forth between "population control," "global warming/climate" and "immigration."
John P. Holdren is long term Barack Obama Science and Technology Adviser. He wrote a book with Ehrlich and his wife about population control, including forced sterilizations and gives speeches saying the world will be safer when America is not strong.
Some of their published work:
"Ecoscience: Population, Resources, Environment"
"Overpopulation"
Socioeconomic Equity
TOO MANY RICH PEOPLE
The Meaning of Sustainability: Biogeophysical Aspects
Population, Sustainability, and Earth's Carrying Capacity
HUMAN APPROPRIATION OF THE PRODUCTS OF PHOTOSYNTHESIS

you are over-working yourself.I just said that I don’t buy everything he says or does. But Roy Beck has done a superb job of mobilizing large amounts of people to block amnesty. He was indispensoble. Who else do you recommend that is doing this? It is true also that overpopulation is a hallmark feature of the Third World...places like Bombay, Mexico City,etc...surely you are not a fan of such places or converting the USA into such cesspools to keep an economy going. I call this a population-economy. Is this your vision?
You certainly can compartmentalize.
Look at the man and his associations.
Broaden your mind.
The issue needs help. The Dem/Rep. Party are not doing it. So That’s what I’m doing.
My video does address his associations:

You know all my posts on Perry, so we are just going to have to agree to disagree on motivation and the facts.
I don't have a video just years of reading and observing so I'm afraid that you are being take in by Roy Beck and his crowd. These people are playing on your emotions about this issue which has been caused by the federal government. Just keep your mind open to that and I in return will do the same about what you said.
I'd wanted to show you these three stories regarding the EPA and Perry, as you and Georgia Girl 2 were talking about it yesterday. If you're short on time, just read the middle one out of Montana (read the whole piece at the link -- not long and clearly written). It made an impression on me as it describes (in 2 real life examples) how the environmentalist have blocked us and our productivity.

CALIFORNIA: …..“Texas Gov. Rick Perry has become a folk hero for people like Stewart as he's marketed his state as a low-cost and business-friendly alternative to California, which is fertile job-hunting ground for Perry.
Texas has added 929,000 jobs since 2001, while California has lost approximately 635,000 manufacturing jobs in that same time, Stewart said.
Answering questions after his speech, Stewart told the story of Perry sending programmed cellphones to CEOs in California with a simple message: "If you're interested in growing your business, please call me. I'm here to help."
"They're doing something right down there," Stewart said of what he dubs the "Texas miracle." "Gov. Perry will go anywhere, any time, to try to recruit companies into Texas."
Perry has taken the state's regulatory process and managed it himself, Stewart said………
[CA Economic Development Corporation President Mark] Lascelles emphasized that it does no good to belabor California's regulatory environment.
"Unfortunately, we can't avoid it. We have to deal with it," he said. Speaker focuses on job creation
*************************
MONTANA: Legal gamesmanship threatens our energy future “Texas Gov. Rick Perry is able to boast about job growth under his watch, noting that over 265,000 jobs, or nearly 37 percent of the jobs created nationwide since the summer of 2009, have been created in the Lone Star state.
He credits this growth to a few simple conditions: low taxes, a regulatory climate that is fair and predictable, and a legal system that limits frivolous lawsuits. According to the Wall Street Journal, nearly one-fourth of the 70 companies that left California this year relocated to Texas.
When new or relocating companies and investors survey the landscape and consider Montana, what do they see? Well, when it comes to natural-resource development, the landscape looks risky.
Recent headlines highlight two major resource development projects slogging through endless legal and regulatory challenges. Investment flees this kind of uncertainty, so Montanans interested in the future economic stability of this state should be wary of the signals we send…” --- [relates short history of 2 outrageous examples] --
“The common experience for Tongue River Railroad and Tonbridge Power is this: Even if you play by the rules, even if you follow the letter of the law, even if you engage with the public during a planning process, even if you get formal approval from the regulatory authorities, you are certain to face organized opposition whose sole intent is to frustrate project development to the point of financial starvation….”

Perry environmental stance would transform EPA ....>>>>>Perry "approaches the issues from a very libertarian bent," said Jim DiPeso , policy director of Republicans for Environmental Protection. "The EPA would be in for some significant budget reduction. There would be no new intiatives, no regulatory programs that would be initated. There'd be litigation from environmental groups that believe he's not enforcing the Clean Air Act and Water Act as robustly as the law provides."
"Any regulatory programs would be really throttled back," he said. "He has shown no interest in climate policy at all. He doesn't accept the science."
With the governor's blessing, Texas Attorney General Greg Abbott is challenging at least six EPA greenhouse gas-related regulations. The state's underlying argument: The fundamental finding that greenhouse gases are a public health threat is scientifically flawed.
The federal government is pushing "hastily enacted, cascading regulations" on states and businesses, Abbott argued in a June brief filed on behalf of nine states in federal court.
Perry's approach to energy, DiPeso said, "would be to produce more," rather than discourage the development of energy projects, such as coal plants, that emit greenhouse gases associated with global warming.
"In terms of energy, (Perry) would pursue what many Republicans call the 'all of the above' strategy, with more energy development offshore and onshore," DiPeso said. <<<<<
All that you list is very nice. Now he needs to start talking about the Rule of Law. I’ll bet you a THOUSAND BUCKS he would repeat the Bush oligarchs in pushing for “Comprehensive Immigration Reform” just like what the unions are pushing for:

THEN....WHAT WILL PERRY DO?
Death Penalty for Foreign Nationals: “If people do not want to be executed in the state of Texas, they should avoid committing murder within the confines of our borders.”
This is good...has he made other statements recently regarding the 30 million waiting to be union-workers & Democrats lately? Would love to read them.
