I shouldn't think so. That Perry wanted to improve Texas's infrastructure (which is how the rest of the country would perceive it) would not be controversial in the least.
Why are you taking this so personally, you don't live in TX. We have enough road/transit problems in our own state.
That proposed TTC monstrosity was hardly comparable to just another interstate! It was supposed to be over a quarter-of-a-mile long, as I recall. And I didn’t say anything about wildlife. I don’t give a damn about wildlife.
Nobody in Texas wanted the stupid thing other than the usual open-borders crowd, who wanted to integrate Texas with Mexico.
That was a very positive step away from SOCIALISM and made it look like Texas was gradually coming around to the correct Republican point of view.
The second best idea for the road was it would connect with Interstate 69 which is being prepared to be the next MAJOR CENTRAL CORE highway in America providing a serious link from Canada's industrial and commercial heartland to new ports on Mexico's West Coast in the Gulf of California.
Why you people would want to be against something as Conservative and farsighted as that is a great mystery.
Excellent posting. Perhaps that will dispel some of the many lies being spouted by Perry bashers.
Not according to the SOS.
Why do Libertarians always try to mislead people?

Your post is nonsensical.
Not as nonsensical as holding ones breath for a candidate that may never run.
Again you make no sense.
Then you can vote for Romney with a great big smile ;)
More nonsensical ramblings.
What politician, Texas or National, has put forth a plan for the transportion needs of the US during the next 50 yrs? None that I’m aware of. Times are different I guess as with today’s thinking President Eisenhower wouldn’t have been able to get the US Interstate System approved and built. Anyone that travels Texas highways on a daily basis knows that we are approaching a transportation crisis in Texas.
I agree. In truth Texas needed the Corridor as it would have helped cut down on the traffic mess between Dallas and Houston, opened up new transportation possibilities and helped the state by bringing in even more shipping. It was a good idea that wasn’t explained very well. Too many sacred cows.
