While on a recent trip to Mission Texas we notice construction along the proposed I69 interstate. It appears that even though Gov. Perry and other sources said the Trans Texas Corridor (TTC) was dead ( that was to follow I35), it has just been, as Progressives do so often for unpopular agendas, redefined. The TTC appears now to be the new and improved I69 and is under construction.

Reminds me of the Stone Mountain Frewway In Atlanta. It got stopped by GA supreme court for various reasons and came back as the Stone Mountain Parkway with a supposed 35 mph speed limit. It was going to connect the Carter Library with Stone Mountain so the locals called it the Ex-Prez Way. Finally got that killed too.

Why would it be numbered I-69, anyway?

I-65 is central Alabama, I-75 is central Georgia, I -69 would therefore be along the Ga/Ala border. Why is it in Texas?

Meet the new boss - same as the old boss.

Over the last 5 years or so there must have been a thousand articles ridiculing conservatives who warned of this.

“No truth to it!” we were told. “Just another right-wing, anti-immigrant scare tactic! said others.

But no matter which party runs the show, the BIG GOVERNMENT machine rolls on.

Yep, as Gov. Perry said the Trans-Texas Corridor is dead. As most Progressives do, they simply re-name it something else.

Here, is A.C. Wharton, mayor of Memphis, Tennessee, admitting the "Insert New Name Here" North American Superhighway exists.

Not that we have a choice in the governor's election, but I am astonished of how many Texans fall for Perry's conservative, tea party attending act now that the election campaign is here again.

Part of the ‘summer of recovery party’ Obama and Biden are planning, before elections get here..

Or are they getting ready to let the Mexican trucks just run through the U.S.?

I-69 already exists, or at least a part of it. Starts in Indianapolis and heads due north to Lansing, Michigan, then makes a 90-degree right turn off thru Flint and over to the Canadian border. The Governor of Indiana at one time wanted to change it to some other number, due to the unsavory overtones. (I-69, do you??)

Guess they want to extend it all the way to Mexico?

I-69 would be a strange alignment for a Trans Texas Corridor. About 700 miles too far East.

Bump. Gov Goodhair won't ever change his stripes. Can't wait for him to start making fun of those of us that want to close the freaking border again. Too bad the Texas republican party is eaten up with RINOs. The only choice we had in the primaries was Medina. I find it to be amazing that there isn't a single actual conservative in Texas that could run for governor.

On the bright side, I don't suspect Perry will be able to keep his particular brand of crony capitalism from biting him on the ass if he wins another term.

Folks in Shreveport are still trying to get I-49 to go all the way to Kansas City. Then from KC to the Canadian border with the southern terminus going down into Texas. The idea is for traffic/business to expand while they pick up a slice as it goes by.

A grade-separated highway on the east side of Texas from the Border will provide the incentive and opportunity to increase Texas trade through the Panama Canal. To get this done, it will be a simple matter of grade-separating existing US Highways in several locations. Why don’t you want to see the Texas economy in (a true Republic) flourish?

And don’t forget now boys and girls the socialist/Marxist/RATS also have a plan to greatly reduce automobile use and develop high-speed rail, which few will be able to afford to ride, and can’t afford to go anywhere anyway. (Special tax on this and that, double your electric bill, you get the drift, right.)
