July 4, 200619 yr "in the wash 'brah'" Hey, I only make comment to your age when you argue with "no, your wrong" all the time and make no effort, like a child who has no substance to his point. Anyway....I'm ending this radiculous tug of war. It's pointless. hahahaha when you dont get your way you make childish insults. you try to use the whole age thing, yet you dont act yours...you're funny dude. but seriously ACT YOUR AGE for once. its not cool when an adult acts like he's 8. So the point of this is if you're going to try to pull the whole age thing, THEN ACT YOUR AGE....ok?;)
July 4, 200619 yr Remember the talk we had about acting your age? i suggest you do so. its my goal now to be the bigger person and be mature. but seriously watch the personal insults.
July 4, 200619 yr Author I believe you were the one who started with the cursing/insults after my very first post about 9/11. So you don't get to slip away as the 'bigger' man...ok. But I do agree, try to be mature.
July 5, 200619 yr We BOTH should be mature. anways some women on foxnews was talking about that 10 lane super highway....interesting.
July 5, 200619 yr Author We BOTH should be mature. anways some women on foxnews was talking about that 10 lane super highway....interesting. yeah, I meant both parties. I'm am reading about the NAFTA Super Highway now....it's very interesting.
July 6, 200619 yr Author The thing is....if you just think about the huge super highways in a simple form....for example.....that they are just 'big highways' then it can sound reasonable...... BUT... This NAFTA Super Highway is going to replace existing roads, then privatise and add toll fees, as well as tracking transponders.......to help pay for it all. The US borders between Canada and Mexico are also going to be dissolved, making a North American Union, a subset of the planned future American Union. Bush has actually signed the law for this hand-over to begin, true. 97% of Texans were against this in a poll, if I remember correctly. Bush and co. have been saying that they are going to end illegal immigration, well making this North American Union with free labor travel will end illegal immigration alright.....it wll be legal. It's reall quite important stuff I feel. There's also many other issues involving trade, the foreign ownership of the Highways transport infrastructure and dissection of the middle class. I'm only writing about this because I care..
July 6, 200619 yr This isnt a bad thing or something evil or something that will hurt anyone or the nation.
July 14, 200619 yr Author Lou Dobbs on the North American Union. CNN Show Host Lou Dobbs brings us a segment on the Bush adminstration's traitorous set-up of the North American Union. You can bet the Bush administration isn't happy about this report. It's getting to the point where some mainstream presenters and show producers are willing to go ahead and expose this stuff. No doubt it wont be on every News channel, like FOX News for example. You Tube CNN video link here or http://www.prisonplanet.com/articles/july2006/030706loudobbs.htm
July 22, 200619 yr Author Texas Farmers Furious Over Superhighway Newsvine | July 21 2006 HILLSBORO, TEXAS — Leroy Walters has survived many a threat on the farm that has been in his family for 120 years — droughts, hailstorms, tornadoes, grasshopper attacks. But now he sees a manmade danger on the horizon: a colossal, 600-mile superhighway that will plow clear across the state of Texas, perhaps cutting through Walters' sorghum and corn fields, obliterating the family's houses and robbing his grandchildren of their land. "I don't think they're going to want to pay a toll to go across this land," he said. "They want to enjoy it free, as Texans should enjoy it." That kind of fear and anger among farmers and other landowners across the Texas countryside could become a political problem for Republican Gov. Rick Perry as he runs for re-election in November. It was Perry who proposed the Trans Texas Corridor in 2002, envisioning a combined toll road and rail system that would whisk traffic along a megahighway stretching from the Oklahoma line to Mexico. The Oklahoma-to-Mexico stretch would be just the first link in a 4,000-mile, $184 billion network. The corridors would be up to a quarter-mile across, consisting of as many as six lanes for cars and four for trucks, plus railroad tracks, oil and gas pipelines, water and other utility lines, and broadband cables. The exact route for the cross-Texas corridor has not yet been drawn up, though it will probably be somewhere within a 10-mile-wide swath running parallel to Interstate 35. Whatever course it takes, it is clear many farmers and property owners will lose their land, though they will be compensated by the state. Construction could begin by 2010. The opposition comes in several forms: Some see it as an assault on private property rights; some object to putting the project in foreign hands (it will be built and operated by a U.S.-Spanish consortium); and some see the project as an affront to open government because part of the contract with Cintra-Zachry is secret. Of Perry's major opponents — Democrat Chris Bell and independents Carole Keeton Strayhorn and Kinky Friedman — Strayhorn has stirred the most fury. At campaign stops she calls the plan the "Trans Texas Catastrophe," a "$184 billion boondoggle" and a "land grab" of historic proportions. She refers to Perry's appointees on the transportation commission as "highway henchmen." She lets loose with Texas-twanged jabs at the contract with the "foreign" Cintra-Zachry. "Texans want the Texas Department of Transportation, not the European Department of Transportation," she says, often to loud applause, whoops and hollers. Cintra-Zachry is paying $7.2 billion to develop the first segment. For that, it will get to operate the road and collect tolls for years to come. It is part of a growing privatization trend in the United States. A week ago, Strayhorn picked up a $6,500 campaign donation and endorsement from the Blackland Coalition, a group of anti-corridor farmers who work the rich black soil of central Texas. Coalition chairman Chris Hammel said Texas needs a new governor who will halt the corridor project, start over and do it right. "One man started it with a pen. One person with a different pen could stop it," he said. Perry's spokesman, Robert Black, dismissed suggestions that the toll road will hurt the governor's re-election campaign. "The governor recognizes the concerns that rural Texans have. Remember, he's from rural Texas," Black said. "But he also believes that you have people out there who are spreading bad information." Supporters say the corridors are needed to handle the expected NAFTA-driven boom in the flow of goods to and from Mexico and handle Texas' growing population. Despite a state attorney general's ruling that the Cintra-Zachry contract be made public, the Perry administration has gone to court to prevent the disclosure of what is says is proprietary information. "We don't know for sure whether this is a concept that we can endorse or not because we have not seen it," complained Mayor Will Lowrance of Hillsboro, a town of 8,200 people 55 miles south of Dallas. "I happen to still believe in the open records law in Texas." Hill County Judge Kenneth Davis, who like Lowrance is a conservative Democrat supporting Strayhorn, agreed with Lowrance and added: "If we're going to build a highway in Texas, let's build it with Texas money, not a foreign company's money." Both local leaders dislike the rural location under consideration for the corridor route because it bypasses Hillsboro.
July 27, 200619 yr Author NAFTA Superhighway RFID Card For US Citizens Trusted traveler toll road system means government will decide if, where you travel Paul Joseph Watson | July 26 2006 US citizens will be forced to adopt a de-facto national identification card and have their freedom of mobility defined by behavioural fielty to the government under proposals set to derive from NAFTA superhighway toll road systems and the implementation of the American Union. Existing toll road systems operational at US borders such as SENTRI/NEXUS and the FAST program mandate that passing vehicles are enrolled in RFID passive tracking and identification programs linked to central databases. The open plan to merge the US with Mexico and Canada and create a Pan American Union networked by a NAFTA Super Highway has long been a Globalist brainchild but its very real and prescient implementation on behalf of the Council on Foreign Relations has recently come under bright spotlight. According to author Jerome Corsi, "Across the NAFTA Super-Highways will flow millions more Mexicans, now armed with North American border passes and biometric identification, as defined by the Security and Prosperity Partnership of North America working groups organized within the Department of Commerce." Similar toll systems snaking their way from the southern and northern borders cutting through major American cities will force American citizens to submit to having RFID enabled identification cards which contain an ever-increasing array of information about their personal lives. Illegal aliens with cloned RFID transponders will enjoy streamlined access to the US while Americans labor under the financial burden of tolls that go directly to foreign corporations and restrictions that take the right of free travel out of their hands. To even be allowed to use major roads and highways, US citizens will be subject to a criminal background check and the government will have the ability to pinpoint their particular RFID signal and remotely block it from central computer mainframes - effectively abolishing freedom of mobility in America. Political dissidents attending protests or hurricane victims attempting to flee could find their journeys cut short at the whim of beaureacrats under the guise of 'protecting national security'. A May 2006 Homeland Security audit predicts that increasing amounts of traveller's personal information will be stored on central computer databases and readable via passive RFID tracking. It forecasts an expansion of the 'trusted traveler' system being introduced in airports to all major roads and highways. The Bush administration has embraked on a policy of selling off key US infrastructure to the highest bidder - in most cases foreign owned corporations. The Indiana Toll Road, Virginia's Pocahontas Parkway, a Texas toll road from Austin to Sequin and The Chicago Skyway have all been siphoned off to foreign companies who will all enjoy billions in profits from American citizens forced to pay the tolls. The New Jersey Turnpike and the Ohio Turnpike are also under the hammer with foreign interests at the forefront of the negotiations. The framework on which the American Union is being pegged is the NAFTA Super Highway (pictured) , a four football-fields-wide leviathan that stretches from southern Mexico through the US up to Montreal Canada. An earlier Corsi article cites government websites which carry full planning details of the Super Highway and its construction has already begun in Texas with no congressional oversight whatsoever. The Trans-Texas Corridor is being overseen by The Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) and the contract is owned by the Cintra corporation which in turn is owned by the King of Spain Juan Carlos. The project is being financed by the implementation of a toll that will be collected by means of GPS tracking devices installed in all vehicles and also envelops many connecting roads to the highway. The NAFTA Super Highway will allow vehicles, people and goods to travel from Mexico, into the heart of America and up to Canada with little impediment, effectively erasing America's borders wholesale. Coupled with Bush's blanket amnesty program, the Pan American Union and the NAFTA Superhighway are the final hammer blows for the wholesale dismantling of American sovereignty.
August 29, 200619 yr Author How NAFTA superhighway is built under radar screen Officials say they see no budget 'earmarks,' because they don't know where to look World Net Daily | August 29 2006 WASHINGTON – Ask some members of Congress about plans to build a "NAFTA superhighway" connecting Mexico and Canada via the U.S. and you might hear snickers. Some officials will tell you they have seen no "earmarks" for such a plan and question whether it even exists. But the plan does exist and the NAFTA superhighway is being built – under the radar screen. One need look no further than the $286 billion highway bill signed into law earlier this month by President Bush for some of the "earmarks." The measure gave the state of Tennessee more than $111 million to help plan and build Interstate 69, called "one of the most significant transportation projects in the region's history" by the Commercial Appeal. No one in Tennessee has any doubts about plans for the NAFTA superhighway. It is being built now with federal taxpayer dollars. And the plan calls for I-69 to extend from Michigan to Texas, linking the Canadian and Mexican borders. Those supporting the plan, like Transportation Secretary Mario Cino, say it will bring an unprecedented windfall not only to the regions it traverses but for all Americans, Mexicans and Canadians. Tennessee Department of Transportation Commissioner Gerald Nicely said I-69 "could help position the western part of the state as one of the world's new economic centers of power in the global marketplace." The entire I-69 project is expected to cost $8.8 billion in current dollars, with states picking up 10 percent of the tab. So where is the money hidden? It's not really. But nowhere in any highway bill is the project referred to as the "NAFTA superhighway." Since the money is doled out to states to spend on their portion of the project, the allocations look like any other highway spending. Ultimately, the Tennessee portion of the I-69 project is expected to cost $1 billion. It will shadow the present route of U.S. 51, connecting towns like Union City, Troy, Dyersburg, Ripley, Covington and Millington before following what is now I-40/240 through Midtown, according to the Commercial Appeal. The new highway bill focuses on the portion of I-69 through Northwest Tennessee about 80-110 miles north of Memphis. A 20-mile section of that segment – a four-lane stretch of U.S. 51 between Dyersburg and Troy – already is completed. Signs label it as part of the "Future I-69 Corridor." That leaves a 19-mile section to be built from Troy to the Kentucky line before one-third of the I-69 route through Tennessee is completed. "The route's already been laid out, with survey markers planted in fields and cryptic benchmarks painted on the pavement of country roads," reports the Commercial Appeal. Detailed drawings are expected to be finished next February. Right-of-way acquisition could begin early next year. Crews could start moving earth as early as 2008. So why are some officials still questioning whether the project is real? Last week, in Kansas, Sen. Pat Roberts, a Republican who chairs the Senate Intelligence Committee, seemed like he was short on domestic, backyard intelligence when he was asked in Saline about the NAFTA superhighway project – again, prompted by reports in WND. "There's nothing I'm aware of in any authorization bill," Roberts said with derision. "I don't know where these things get started. This is one of those blogosphere things that makes you wonder what's going on." When the Duluth News Tribune followed up WND reports about the project by turning to a local congressman for help, Mary Kerr, an aide to Rep.Jim Oberstar, said: "There are no earmarks for a superhighway like that." But you can't hide for long a superhighway, in some places, according to plans, four football fields wide.
August 29, 200619 yr Theres alot of stuff to take in, not sure i understand it all. Give me a quick summary - What are the pros and cons of this NAFTA highway? Looking at the map, it seems like its gonna be good for transport theres some good connections.
August 29, 200619 yr Is the population in the states growing? is car ownership growing? Is it likely to grow much more in the future? Is the current transport system somehow inadequate?
August 30, 200619 yr I see nothing wrong with the highway its immaterial to the whole goverment trying to make canada and mexico part of america
August 31, 200619 yr Author I see nothing wrong with the highway its immaterial to the whole goverment trying to make canada and mexico part of america Well, the highway is actually part of it all.
