we are now joined by jennifer granholm / michigan governor. there is a new automotive battery manufacturing plant opening up in your state, what are your hopes for it? our hope has been to diversify michigan's economy we have obviously been concentrating on automotive manufacturing. our goal has been to diversify our economy both inside and outside the automotive industry. when we saw that the federal government was putting together incentives for the battery industry in america we coupled state incentives with that. as a result we have the first lithium battery company from a one to three. this is one of 16 companies that we have been able to get started in michigan in the past 12 months. we are very excited because this means jobs. there are 300 people who are working here now, there should be 500 by january and up to 3000 over the next couple years. it is very exciting for us. will this project help to revive other types of suppliers in michigan as well? yes i do. the automotive and industry alone needs people who know how to do clean tech

i spoke to michigan attorney general mike cox. we've received a ton of e-mail from people asking us why andrew shirvell still has a job as assistant attorney general in your office. and free speech is critical, but' pears to be targeting a college student. i know you've said this guy's views don't reflect your views or those of your office, but why is he still employed? >> well, for a number of reasons. here in america we have this thing called the first amendment, which allows people to express what they think, and engage in political and social speech. and more on point, the supreme court, both the united states supreme court in 1995 in a case called the u.s. versus treasury employees said that civil service employees in the federal system and by extension in the state system, have free -- first amendment rights outside of the work as long as it doesn't impact their performance at their job. and mr. shirvell is sort of a front line grunt assistant prosecution in my office. he does satisfactory work. and off hours he's free to en

that's from mike cox, michigan attorney general. now under michigan civil service rules, shirvell can't be fired for his political views but can be let go for conduct unbecoming a state official. that hasn't happened. armstrong declined coming on the program. mr. shirvell was more than happy to speak about his months long focus on chris armstrong. i spoke to him a short time ago. >> i want to go over some of the stuff you have on your blog. there's a picture of chris armstrong with a nazi swastika near his face. there's another with the order words racist elitist liar on his face. you accuse him of being satan's representative in the student assembly. you're a state official, this say college student. what are you doing? >> well, anderson, basically if you've been involved in political campaigns before, you know all sorts of stuff happens and this is just another tactic bringing awareness to what chris really stands for. >> this is not some national figure, this is a guy who's running a student council. >> well, anderson, as a priva

michigan technological university was founded in 1885. it's located in yuten, michigan. michigan tech was designed to train the booming copper industry in that y. classes began with 23 students and four faculty members. today's enrollment is over 7,100 students and the faculty of almost 450 members. today, michigan tech is one of the nation's premiere technological research students. they can have college of engineering, college of science and arts, school of business and economics, school of technology and school of forest resources and environmental science. the university offers more than 120 degree programs in these various subjects. michigan tech students also excell in athletics. the michigan tech huskies compete in division i and ii athletics and have 14 varsity athletic teams. they compete in basketball, football, hockey, tennis, track and field, soccer, volleyball and in orderic skiing. the mission is to prepare the students to have jobs in their chosen field and enroll in graduate schools or enlist in the military by graduation. it has become a premiere univers

let's look at the state of michigan. you have one refinery in the state of michigan. it runs about 106,000 gallons per day. it makes up about 1% of michigan's demand. the rest of the refined product that is used in consumed here in michigan comes from chicago. three or four of the big refineries in chicago, there are a couple of different large pipelines that bring that product over. you are already on the heels of an incident in the kalamazoo river, and about a week and a half ago there was an incident in chicago. the pipeline 6b that delivers some crude to us and some down to toledo is out of commission. the other problem that bring screwed over from chicago is out of commission. -- that brings crude over from chicago. those businesses and other suppliers who rely on chicago to supply this market, we have to bid up and over what someone else is willing to pay in those markets to be able to get that product over here. just this morning, i received a note that the problem in chicago has been repaired and is now back up and running. at noon i saucepot prices starting t

the gentleman from michigan. mr. camp: i ask unanimous consent to revise and extend my remarks and yield myself such time as i may consume. the speaker pro tempore: the gentleman is recognized. mr. camp: this bill expands the eligibility for certain tax law benefits for algae-based fuels. it would make it eligible for the producer credit and for 50% bonus depreciation. regardless of whether members believe these enhanced tax benefits for algae are appropriate, i think it's important to make a few observations about this bill, about the process under which we are considering it and about the majority's decision to make this, the centerpiece of its tax agenda during this, the final week of session. with respect to the bill itself, woy note that these same benefits along with many other energy-related tax provisions were included as a part of chairman levin's discussion draft which had been expected to be accepted by the ways and means committee. why only the algae provisions merit special consideration as stand-alone c

mike cox, attorney general of michigan, was on the show. he has earlier said that the -- his assistant, shirvell, has a right to say what he's had to say. he was pressed a little further. let's listen to exactly what he said. >> certainly, it's -- it's unbecoming of civil discourse. it's unbecoming of common courtesy. and, you know, i -- quite frankly, i feel embarrassed for mr. armstrong. you know, that he has this unwanted attention. but, again, anderson, this is speech put on a blog. now, if there's conduct that's verified, for instance, if a personal protection order was sought by mr. armstrong and granted in the michigan civil service or disciplinary code, we could start looking at things in terms of, perhaps, sending to an employee assistant program. >> david, it is remarkably frustrating to hear the double speak that continues to go on. i don't really understand what mike cox said. i'll read it to you. he said, now, if there's a personal protection order was sought by mr. armstrong and granted in the michigan civil service or discipl

that he is openly gay didn't seem to matter to michigan students but deeply offended a michigan alumnus who set up a blog dedicated to attacking armstrong over what he called his radical homosexual agenda. it's the internet age and anybody can say anything. you can debate the parameters but it is what it is. what gives me pause is the name and position of the hateful blogger. an assistant attorney general for the state of michigan. he's a public official with a mandate to uphold the law. in his blog he calls armstrong's satan -- he calls armstrong satan's representative on the student assembly and posted a picture of armstrong with resign written all over his face and calls him the student a racist elitist liar. his boss, attorney general mike cox are his opinions alone and do not reflect the opinions of the attorney general's office but cox concedes that his immaturity and lack of judgment outside the office are clear. he defends himself by saying he writes his blog postings during off hours separate from his work. he insists he's a christian citizen exercises first amendment rights bu
