Congressman: Superhighway about North American Union
Paul says goal is common currency,borderless travel, bigger bureaucracy
World Net Daily
October 30, 2006

WASHINGTON – Rep. Ron Paul, a maverick Republican from Texas, today denounced plans for the proposed “NAFTA superhighway” in his state as part of a larger plot for merger of the U.S., Canada and Mexico into a North American Union.

“By now many Texans have heard about the proposed ‘NAFTA Superhighway,’ which is also referred to as the trans-Texas corridor,” he said in a statement. “What you may not know is the extent to which plans for such a superhighway are moving forward without congressional oversight or media attention.”

Paul explained that most members of Congress are unaware of the plans because only relatively small amounts of money have been spent studying the plans and those allocations were included in “enormous transportation appropriations bills.”

“The proposed highway is part of a broader plan advanced by a quasi-government organization called the ‘Security and Prosperity Partnership of North America,’ or SPP,” he explains. “The SPP was first launched in 2005 by the heads of state of Canada, Mexico, and the United States at a summit in Waco.”

No treaties were involved, and Congress was not included in discussions or plans, he says.

“Instead, the SPP is an unholy alliance of foreign consortiums and officials from several governments,” according to Paul. “One principal player is a Spanish construction company, which plans to build the highway and operate it as a toll road. But don’t be fooled: The superhighway proposal is not the result of free market demand, but rather an extension of government-managed trade schemes like NAFTA that benefit politically connected interests.”

Paul says, however, the real issue raised by the superhighway plan and the SPP is national sovereignty.

“Once again, decisions that affect millions of Americans are not being made by those Americans themselves, or even by their elected representatives in Congress,” says Paul. “Instead, a handful of elites use their government connections to bypass national legislatures and ignore our Constitution – which expressly grants Congress the sole authority to regulate international trade.”

The ultimate goal, he says, is not simply a superhighway “but an integrated North American Union – complete with a currency, a cross-national bureaucracy and virtually borderless travel within the union. Like the European Union, a North American Union would represent another step toward the abolition of national sovereignty altogether.”

Rep. Virgil Goode, R-Va., has introduced a resolution expressing the sense of Congress that the U.S. should not engage in the construction of a NAFTA superhighway, or enter into any agreement that advances the concept of a North American Union.

“I wholeheartedly support this legislation and predict that the superhighway will become a sleeper issue in the 2008 election,” says Paul. “Any movement toward a North American Union diminishes the ability of average Americans to influence the laws under which they must live. The SPP agreement, including the plan for a major transnational superhighway through Texas, is moving forward without congressional oversight – and that is an outrage. The administration needs a strong message from Congress that the American people will not tolerate backroom deals that threaten our sovereignty.”

Think it sounds too wacky that Bush is working toward creating a North American Union and undermining our national sovereignty partly through these NAFTA superhighways like the Trans Texas Corridor? Think again. The above video says it all and government documents prove it. Robert Pastor of the Council on Foreign Relations (CFR) who is interviewed in the second segment, is flat out lying to the American public in his comments. Read the details proving it here.

Time for a voter revolt and to expose our secretive, abusive government to a little American patriotic sunshine…then watch the roaches scatter!

Strayhorn within 5 points of Perry!

According to Harvey Kronberg’s Quorum Report….

October 27, 2006

POLL SAYS STRAYHORN WITHIN 5 POINTS OF PERRY

Based on poll, campaign has committed an additional $250K to final week of TV

According to McLaughlin & Associates, the governor’s race has tightened dramatically, with Independent Carole Strayhorn within five points of incumbent Republican Governor Rick Perry.

The poll tested 600 likely voters on October 25th and 26th.

According to these numbers, the unusually large number of undecideds that other polls were registering early last week has begun to shrink dramatically. The McLaughlin poll says 8.2% are now undecided and a good number have migrated to Strayhorn. A solid 57% of undecideds are women.

The four way matchup numbers are:

Perry-31.8%

Strayhorn-26.7%

Bell-21.7%

Friedman–11.7%

Campaign in the gutter: Castro involved in racially motivated push polling

PUSH POLLING BY TEAM CASTRO ALLEGED
‘If Balido Left His Mexican
Wife For A White Woman…’

Racial Issues Fly As Campaign Goes Negative
San Antonio Lightning
10-25-2006

The troubled Joaquin Castro campaign has run into more controversy, as voters report apparent “push-polls” in his quest to retain State Rep 125.

Castro has been trying to defend his role in promoting toll roads in Texas, and has denied wrong doing and campaign violations.

* * *

One westside voter, who asked to remain anonymous for fear of retaliation, has reported getting a “opinion” phone call, paraphrased here, which asked:

“If you knew Nelson Balido left his Mexican wife for a white woman, would that make you more likely, less likely to vote for Joaquin Castro, or no difference.”

Other voters confirmed calls with similar messages

Balido and his wife, Sandra — born in Tampico Mexico — have been married for 10 years. It is Balido’s only marriage.

* * *

A northside voter, Susan Dikin, who went on the record reports that she received a similar poll asking if she knew Nelson Balido was a “convicted felon” would that influence her vote?” (Click for audio.)

In a widely reported story in the Express-News four years ago, Balido explained an adjudicated case stemming from a 1992 charge of illegally obtaining steroids to help relieve pain from a childhood injury caused when he was hit by a car. The case was resloved, Balido finished his probation and the record was expunged.

Dikin says she was “shocked” by the deceptive poll, and saw immediately that someone was trying to poison her against Balido. She didn’t report the issue until block walkers for Balido came to her door.

* * *

Castro has recently drawn criticism because of a video tape which shows one of his campaign workers demolishing opponent Balido’s exhibit shown at a anti-toll rally in which he received the important SA Toll Party endorsement.

Castro, who is no stranger to deception was caught filling in for his twin brother Julian during the last mayoral race.

Julian lost.

Joaquin Castro has refused to take our calls on this story, but is offered free space to respond.

Nelson Balido has called the Castro activities “unacceptable.”

* * *

Not that the Lightning is singling out the Balido-Castro bout, but it is an outrageous example of what is wrong with Bexar County elections in general, and the dirty tricks that crop-up each cycle.

The local daily-monopoly Express-News is censoring negative comments on Castro. They endorsed him last week — Friday the 13th.

E-N also missed the big KLRN debate of last Sunday, in which Castro did a nervous tap-dance when asked about the video taped vandalism.

And they have consistently ignored anti-tollers like Terri Hall, a strong voice against the smelly Cintra-Zachry-Perry deal.

* * *

Makes you wonder what else they are censoring, doesn’t it?

We’ll answer that question, and more as this series continues.

We’ll show you some monkey shines at the polls themselves.

And we’ll introduce you to some 118-year-old plus registered voters. Now that’s civic involvement!

Conservative Caucus building coalition to STOP NAFTA highways!

Resolution seeks to head off union with Mexico, Canada
Howard Phillips building coalition behind congressional measure
World Net Daily
October 25, 2006


Howard Phillips

A coalition spearheaded by Conservative Caucus Chairman Howard Phillips, author Jerome Corsi and activist Phyllis Schlafly is launching an effort today in support of a proposed congressional resolution that denounces any effort by the U.S. to enter into a North American Union with Mexico and Canada.

The resolution – sponsored by Republican Reps. Virgil Goode Jr. of Virginia, Tom Tancredo of Colorado, Walter Jones of North Carolina, and Ron Paul of Texas – expresses “the sense of Congress that the United States should not engage in the construction of a North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) Superhighway System or enter into a North American Union (NAU) with Mexico and Canada.”

Phillips and Corsi, a WND columnist and author, hosted a news conference at the National Press Club this morning.

Yesterday, Corsi announced the Internet release of about 1,000 documents obtained in a Freedom of Information Act request to the Security and Prosperity Partnership of North America. He says the documents show the White House is engaging in collaborative relations with Mexico and Canada outside the U.S. Constitution.

The documents can be viewed here, on a special website set up by the Minuteman Project.

Corsi told WND the coalition, which now numbers about 50 leaders, is calling for a congressional investigation.


Rep. Virgil Goode Jr., R-Va.

“We’d like to see both the House and the Senate in the 110th Congress conduct a serious investigation and get full disclosure from SPP of all documents,” he said. “If the Bush administration wants to continue to deny that we’re on the same track that Europe went on to create the European Union and the euro, then there should be no harm in full disclosure.”

Otherwise, he continued, “I’m charging they are secretly on the path to create a North American Union, a new currency – the amero – along the same stealth path that was used in Europe, keeping everything below the radar, by administrative decree, making it to late to stop before the American people finally realize what’s gong on.”

Phillips, who has been chairman of the public-policy Conservative Caucus since 1974, told WND “this could be the most important project on which we’ve ever worked.”

“It’s incredible that a project of this magnitude with such potential fatal consequences to American’s status as an individual republic should get this far without serious public debate and consideration,” said, Phillips, who was one of the founders of the U.S. Taxpayers Party, which changed its name to the Constitution Party in 1999.

He was the party’s presidential candidate in the 1992, 1996 and 2000 elections.

The resolution Phillips is promoting reads, in part:

  • Whereas, according to the Department of Commerce, United States trade deficits with Mexico and Canada have significantly widened since the implementation of the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA);
  • Whereas the economic and physical security of the United States is impaired by the potential loss of control of its borders attendant to the full operation of NAFTA;
  • Whereas a NAFTA Superhighway System from the west coast of Mexico through the United States and into Canada has been suggested as part of a North American Union;
  • Whereas it would be particularly difficult for Americans to collect insurance from Mexican companies which employ Mexican drivers involved in accidents in the United States, which would increase the insurance rates for American drivers;
  • Whereas future unrestricted foreign trucking into the United States can pose a safety hazard due to inadequate maintenance and inspection, and can act collaterally as a conduit for the entry into the United States of illegal drugs, illegal human smuggling, and terrorist activities;
  • Whereas a NAFTA Superhighway System would be funded by foreign consortiums and controlled by foreign management, which threatens the sovereignty of the United States.

The resolution calls for the House of Representatives to agree on three issues of determination:

  1. The United States should not engage in the construction of a North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) Superhighway System;
  2. The United States should not enter into a North American Union with Mexico and Canada; and
  3. The President should indicate strong opposition to these or any other proposals that threaten the sovereignty of the United States.

“As important as this resolution is,” Corsi said, “we need still more congressional attention. Where is congressional oversight of SPP? We need congressional hearings, not just congressional resolutions.”

H.Con.Res.487 has been referred to the Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure and to the Committee on Internal Relations for consideration prior to any debate that may be scheduled on the floor of the House of Representatives.

Warning from Houston resident of what tolls bring…

Link to Austin American Statesman editorials here.

A warning from Houston

I’m a longtime Houston resident who has a few comments for Austin area
taxpayers and drivers to consider as their toll road system rolls out.
Mobility is not necessarily the prime factor in toll road decisions. The
Houston toll road system is run by a small group of bureaucrats, with no
public oversight.
The toll road on the Interstate 10 expansion replaced HOV
lanes that were to eventually be converted to rail. The taxpayers got no
more lanes, no future rail and the opportunity to pay tolls forever.
Some of the toll roads planned for Houston will actually hurt mobility in
that they primarily benefit developers who have land that cannot be
developed without better access to freeways.
These toll roads just add more
commuters to the road system.
Another factor is that taxpayers are in line to cover interest and principal
payments if tolls fall short of expectation
, as was the case for the Hardy
Toll road.

Houston Chronicle endorses Strayhorn!

FINALLY a major paper sees Strayhorn’s vision, experience, saavy, and “tough” approach as the top choice!

This is critical because it’s Perry’s base of support. You may recall an article on our blog a few weeks ago (see it here) where Perry thumbed his nose at the opposition to tolls and the Trans Texas Corridor in Austin, San Antonio, El Paso and elsewhere because he knows all he needs to win is Dallas and Houston, which are heavily Republican. Now that base is cracking under the weight of the TTC and our grassroots movement!

Strayhorn for governor
The state comptroller recognizes that education is the key to solving Texas’ problems.

Houston Chronicle
Oct. 19, 2006
As Election Day approaches, Texas finds itself locked in a government and tax structure better suited to the 19th century than to the 21st. Its depleted natural resources can no longer finance quality education with money to spare. Its low taxes and limited government regulation are no longer enough to lure businesses looking for a skilled work force and a high quality of life for their executives and employees.

The future of Texas lies with its children, yet the state is failing many of those children on almost every level. One out of every four Texas children lives in poverty. About 70 percent of these impoverished children have parents who work but receive low pay and no benefits. Too many children growing up in Texas are poorly educated — a drag on the economy that reduces tax revenue as it drives up demand for social services.

One in four children is without health insurance — the highest rate in the United States. Uninsured children tend to be unhealthy and receive care in expensive hospital emergency rooms, burdening taxpayers and employers who pick up the tab.

Texas officials have not acted vigorously to reduce toxic air pollution, particularly in the Houston area. Perhaps the politicians in Austin are too concerned with maintaining the profits of existing businesses or don’t want to offend campaign contributors — or worse, are simply indifferent to public health. Businesses have been deterred from moving here, and many residents are at increased risk for cancer and — especially with children and the elderly — respiratory disease.

Texas badly needs to change its philosophy of governing. In hopes of fostering this change, the Houston Chronicle endorses Carole Keeton Strayhorn for governor. Of the four candidates, she is best equipped to shake up the status quo in a way that balances the needs of both business and residents.

Strayhorn is running as an independent, portraying herself as an outsider who wants to give Austin a jolt. In one sense that is true. She would bring a fresh style of leadership to the executive branch. But it should be remembered that Strayhorn is no novice when it comes to working the levers of government.

She has a lifetime of experience in government and public service. Once mayor of Austin, then a member of the powerful Texas Railroad Commission, Strayhorn serves as state comptroller. She knows how state government operates and how to make it more efficient and effective. Government, she says, can be leaner without being meaner.

More than any other candidate in this race, Strayhorn recognizes that the key to solving Texas’ problems and securing the state’s future is education. Half of all state tax dollars go to the public schools, yet half of Texas’ children drop out before graduating from high school. In the information age, good jobs require higher education, yet too few of those who graduate go on to college.

The population of Texas is rapidly becoming more Hispanic, an ethnic group in which children are disproportionately at risk of dropping out. Unless Texas does a better job of keeping all children in school and preparing them for higher education, the state will not have enough middle-class taxpayers to pay for the education and government services a civilized society requires.

Strayhorn promises to make Texas public schools a model for the nation. She has a blueprint to raise teacher pay, recruit quality teachers, provide adequate and reliable school funding, increase student performance and cut the disastrous dropout rate. She has won the backing of the state’s teachers.

Unhealthy children tend to be poor students. To increase the number of Texas children with health insurance, Strayhorn vows to make maximum use of the Children’s Health Insurance Program, better known as CHIP and largely financed by the federal government. She decries decisions in recent years to cut the program’s services and send hundreds of millions of dollars contributed by Texans to other states. She would end the contract that left registration and eligibility for social services in the hands of an inept and uncaring private company.

Gov. Rick Perry has missed his chance to make the kind of changes Texas needs. The other two candidates have not shown the kind of vision and leadership to do any better. The Chronicle believes only Carole Keeton Strayhorn has the experience and savvy to win election to the governorship and then use the office to improve public education and change the course of Texas for the better.

"Governor's race has become a referendum on the Trans Texas Corridor" says Dallas news station!

Trans-Texas Corridor hot issue in governor’s race
October 17, 2006
By BRAD WATSON
WFAA-TVFarmers and ranchers flocked to the Capitol in May 2005 to protest Gov. Rick Perry’s Trans-Texas Corridor, which they say is gobbling up their property.

The governor’s race is becoming a referendum on the Trans-Texas Corridor toll road.

Republican incumbent Gov. Rick Perry supports the TTC that would parallel Interstate 35 from Laredo to Oklahoma.

However, it could gobble up 81,000 acres of rural land (our emphasis: just for the first leg, TTC-35) according to the Texas Department of Transportation. Also, a large chunk of the land used would be in North Texas.

Lance Haynes, a Republican, said he wonders if his family’s 68 acres in rural Collin County might be covered in concrete in the near future.

The land lies within the path where the state could route the TTC and he’s worried.

“It has the potential to completely wipe out everything that our family has here,” he said.

With population and traffic congestion growing in Texas and funds tight, Perry said the TTC is the quickest answer.

“We must build more roads and we must build infrastructure that works safely, thoughtfully and that’s economically viable,” he said.

While wide open spaces separate the landowners in the path of the TTC, they are very much together in opposing it and have lots of company. The Texas Farm Bureau, and even the Texas Republican Party, is against the TTC.

Perry’s opponents, Democrat Chris Bell and Independents Kinky Friedman and Carole Keeton Strayhorn, are also adversaries of the plan.

Strayhorn attended many of the public hearing on the TTC over the summer.

“They are literally cramming toll roads down Texans’ throats; and the people don’t want it,” she said.

A TexDOT video explains that a private company would finance and build the corridor in return for collecting tolls for 50 years.

Cintra-Zachry, mostly owned by a Spanish company, is designing the TTC and will bid to build it.

“If someone has a better plan bring it to the hearings,” Perry has responded to the criticism.

But opponents, partially financed by Strayhorn, made a web video as well that lampoons the TTC and Perry.

Perry, whose hometown of Paint Creek is north of Abilene, said he is listening.

“I’m sensitive to those landowners,” he said. “I come from a very rural area.”

But many rural voters deeply disagree.

“But doing it in a manner that disregards the concerns of local government and citizens, I can’t endorse that,” Haynes said on Perry’s position.

Van Os proposes constitutional protection from eminent domain and toll roads

Candidate for Attorney General, David Van Os, Proposes Constitutional Protection from Eminent Domain and Tolling

In the last week of his 254-county whistlestop tour, Attorney General candidate David Van Os suggests Constitutional Amendments to protect Texans from continuing abuses of eminent domain and toll roads.

Unveiling what he terms “Citizens’ Protection Amendments,” Van Os proposes that the power of eminent domain be limited to reasons of public security and safety. He also proposes that toll roads should require voter referendums.

Van Os stated, “If government can take private property from the individual on a whim, then we’re living in dictatorship, not democracy. Texans are seeing a continuing and growing abuse of eminent domain. This has to stop.”

Van Os continued, “These amendments will restore the checks and balances between government and the individual. I call upon the governor and the legislature to tackle this issue as soon as possible.”

At 4:00 p.m. on each day, Van Os will meet the public and the press at the Tarrant County Courthouse on October 16 (#250), Dallas County Courthouse on October 17 (#251), Harris County Courthouse on October 18 (#252), Bexar County Courthouse on October 19 (#253), and Travis County Courthouse on October 20 (#254). SEE DETAILS BELOW. >>

Proposed Amendments to the Bill of Rights of the Texas Constitution


“Citizens’ Protection Amendments”

No private property may be taken without the owner’s consent unless the taking is necessitated by the public security or safety and there is no other reasonable recourse. In no case may economic considerations be considered reasons of public security or safety. This amendment is self-executing and is applicable to any pending uncompleted taking.

In no case may any private person or enterprise purchase, lease, or utilize for the pursuit of profit or gain any property that has been taken for public purposes without the owner’s consent. This section does not prohibit the payment of public money as fair compensation for employment, construction or maintenance, or ancillary services to employees, construction or maintenance contractors, or vendors of ancillary services. This amendment is self-executing and is applicable to any pending usage that has not begun remunerative operations.

In no case may a toll or fee be demanded or collected for travel on any transportation facility constructed through any use of public authority or money unless the voters of the county in which the facility is located shall have approved the tolling by referendum. This amendment is self-executing and is applicable to any pending uncompleted project.
