Will Las Cruces be the winner? Pegasus announcement to come 'pretty soon'

Will Las Cruces be selected as the site for the Center for Innovation, Technology and Testing - a $1 billion privately funded mock city to be used for scientific research? Brumley was in Las Cruces to speak Thursday at the ReEnergize the Americas Conference at the Las Cruces Convention Center and he said he did not have any new information to give ... (more)

Lets hope not - this is just another ploy by
the City Council to saddle Las Cruces and the
taxpayers with another bill that we cannot
afford nor sustain.

Show us the plan, who is going to make what and
how many local employees will be put to work -
unlike the Spaceport which did little to nothing
for our area.

No problem, we can just ask the feds for relief money ... Change your city council and you can stop things like this from eating up your tax dollars

They has a Carls Jr. so they is already WINNING!

Carl's Jr jobs, right on, my dream job. Of course, I'd rather we had 10004 of CJ jobs over lazy people simply sitting at home on welfare.

Libs will always prefer WELFARE no matter what the job or how high it pays!

So by your thinking, liberals are the poor? Man, you really are something else. Conservatives are the middle class? What are the rich, just out of curiousity?

The only thing you and I agree on right now is that there are lazy people who would rather live on welfare than work. Liberal, conservative has no classes.

I didn't say libs were poor. Libs don't take personal responsibility for their own actions or themselves. Libs always blame somebody else for their miseries and need other people mostly the government to take care of them. Libs are hypocrites when it comes to the way they live their lifes. They want other people to spend their money and get upset if their money is spent, they want some of your freedoms taken away but when it comes to theirs, how dare you even think about it. In a nutshell liberals see the world the way they want it to be! Conservatives see the world the way it is!

That's definitley one view of differentiation.

Here's another one.

http://www.balancedpolitics.org/ideology.htm

If you are all liberal or all conservative, you fit these sides by the letter. Common sense says that it is prudent to be somewhere in the middle. Move too far to one side and your vision gets cloudy.

Thanks for clarifying. I hear way too many people using these terms loosely and wonder if they truly understand what makes good sense.

I disagree with republicans all being conservative and democrats all being liberal. It's a mix. At this point in time, the divided nation is partially all of these people being hell-bent on their views and not willing to budge at the expense of the nation. Bad bad bad

Nope, the two parties really are part of 1 game. The same people control both parties. The 2 party system is to keep the masses happy. Same people run both parties. Whether Romney or obama win, does not matter.m. They both answer to much more powerful people.

Romney is goig to open up drilling on the Mesa and gas will be free for all Otero County residents!

[minimitt]

There's nothing on the mesa, just weeds. You gonna run your car on weeds? Get the electricity for your romney phone from the weeds? There's a lot of fine dust up there. Drill baby drill, maybe you'll find some water. You're gonna be mighty upset when you lose your free phone privileges.

The Mesa has the largest Natural Gas deposit in the world. It is estimated that it also has 300 years of oil to supply the United Sates twice over. Gas will be free to everybody who lives in this area!

You misunderstood Mr. Romney. He plans to sell that land and the mountains above. He wis clear on that.

"The revenue from oil and natural gas development on Otero Mesa in Otero County would
be small, representing 0.27 percent of all oil and natural gas production taxes and royalties in
New Mexico and 1.3 percent of total revenue from all sources for Otero County in 2007. The
economic outlook is similar. Proposed energy development on Otero Mesa is insignificant at the
state level, and would account for less than 1 percent of total employment in the county"

The problem with taking anyone's word at face value in this part of the state is the the deception that hides some major flaws, either purposefully or due to total ignorance. Until the citizens begin to question the purpose of any change and evaluate the words of those who are selling their views with a critical approach, the taxpayer is at the mercy of those who have the power.
