Ping to Perry's road rage.

[Hydroshock]

The only thing that may save Gov Goodhair is that there are three challenegers. If Kinky or She Of Many Names dropped out and their support went to the other he would be toast.

Gov Goodhair - I like that! Strayhorn may have already gained my vote...too soon to tell...

More than 14,000 Texans — almost all opposed to the Trans-Texas Corridor

What is wrong with you Texans???? GW promised Vincente!!! Now, move out of the way --- here comes the dozers.

[Froufrou]

Ouch! Vicente is not on my long list of favorite people. Neither is NAFTA or CAFTA or whatever name they're selling shamnesty under this month...

[Hydroshock]

I am leaning to her as well, but I do like Kinky. FOr me it will be one of those two.

"This lipstick has already been put on this pig. Now the only way to stop this boondoggle is to send Rick Perry home in November," Mark Wilson testified at a Waco hearing.

I have to agree.

[Froufrou]

I know and respect a young man who campaigns for Kinky but the only thing I know about him is his plans for dealing with employers who hire illegals, and I love that.

[Hydroshock]

I am with you.

[Froufrou]

In fact, I think the gubernatorial office may be the best place to start in dealing with this problem. Evidently, starting with the POTUS is going to get us nowhere.

I would rather see this huge amount of money spent on a BORDER FENCE. We don't need no stinkin' road to Mexico.

[Dr. Thorne]

You mean the regular folks are opposed to this project? Well, the ungrateful grunts! Don't they know that this is for their own good so that China can send slave labor goods to WalMart to be bought by those same grunts, so the money can be spent by China on nuclear weapons aimed at ...them?

Oh, well. Who cares as long as the we, the wealthy, make a little more money for a short period of time? Waiter! Another bottle of Dom Perignon, and make it snappy!

[Froufrou]

Yes Ma'am! I say, build the fence, make it electric, and man it with gattlin guns.

Strayhorn may have already gained my vote

Strayhorn is for raising taxes, universal healthcare for children (that's socialized medicine in case you live in Rio Linda), opposed redistricting in Texas, and changes parties whenever it's convenient.

But vote as you please.

"Stimulate and accelerate cross-border technology trade by preventing unnecessary barriers from being erected (e.g., agree on mutual recognition of technical requirements for telecommunications equipment, tests and certification; adopt a framework of common principles for e-commerce)."

The above quote is from the White House website. It seems to be a clear statement of the current Administration's intent on border issues.

Hold on there, Dog. Consider the fact that TB is on the rise, and it's due to immigrants. Healthcare for children can help prevent disease, if you can get the stupid mothers to the clinicas.

[Hydroshock]

Yes she is but she is still a whole lot better then Gov Goodhair.

[TomGuy]

so that China can send

That's happening in Florida.

[There was an article on FR a day or two ago about China doing some big something regarding imports through Florida. I can't find the article now.]
