Rick Perry was prepared to create a million refugees in Texas by giving imminent domain and development rights to a foreign corporation over land four football fields wide. Sounds like something out of communist country.
Rick Perry was going to make guinea pigs out of millions of Texas school children (all preteen sluts I guess?) with Guardasil (which had not been tested on kids) which means that he was mandating hundreds of millions of dollars in profits for a politically connected Merck.
Perry opposes a border wall. Perry opposes not giving benefits to illegals. Perry also favors a “guest worker program” that will definitely lead to amnesty.
Perry is already distancing himself from his book published last year “Fed Up”. Perry helped break ground for an Islamic Center in Plano TX.
Rick Perry spent tens of millions of our tax dollars doling subsidies out his own version of “stimulus” to corporations.
Rick Perry is not a conservative.
I liked the TTC idea and I wish it had been built. Texas badly needs a replacement for the wholly inadequate I-35 and it needs to be big enough to handle growth for the next few decades. The TTC fit that description. I agree that using a foreign company to build it was probably politically tone deaf but I do not think it was a big deal. Eminent domain will be used when the replacement for I-35 is finally built, you can bet on it. I use the toll road to the Austin airport, I believe it is 130, whenever I have to go there. I understand it was built and is maintained by Cintra. I wish I-35 was as nice as that road. I thought the TTC was a great plan to build a new road without raising my taxes for it, but that is just me.
