the same guy who was all for some Trans-Texas Corridor, using eminent domain for a mile-wide superhighway from Mexico straight up into Texas and then turn it over to a Spanish company...

For the benefit of people who aren't familiar with that fiasco ..... and AFAIK it's still there bubbling away on a back burner, with the same NWO types pushing it in background.

The SPP/NASCO project was a multinational, intergovernmental showcase -- but stealth -- project cooked up on "Poppy" Bush's watch.

The concept was, the US, Canada, and Mexico would collaborate on an infrastructural supercorridor up through he middle of the United States. Chinese merchandise would land at Mexican Pacific seaports and be transported by container up through Mexico and the US to big-box loading docks all over the Midwest, Northeast, and Canada, having never been touched by US workers' hands until they landed on someone's receiving-door loading dock.

Whatever US Customs or other regulator control there was, would be exercised at inland "superport" warehouse complexes located at strategic junctions.

I saw one of these a-building near Alliance Airport (a general-aviation airport between Forth Worth and Denton, Texas, on I-35 West), and another was/is planned for Kansas City, Kansas. Reportedly the KC one would have a Mexican customs and revenue office on the grounds, and there was a question of Mexican sovereignty being granted (as if for a consulate or embassy) for that office. While it was being built, to give you an idea of the politics, Sen. Ryan of Kansas was denying to a public meeting that any such thing as the SPP/NASCO project was being built, calling it "an Internet rumor". Yeah, well, I saw the bulldozers and the raw dirt, and there was thousands of acres of raw dirt. That was fall, 2007, as I recall.

Oh, and a Congressional committee (or two committees, one for each house?) was constituted to oversee the NASCO/SPP budget; there were co-chairmen, one Dem and one Pubbie, one of the recent Dem ones being Rep. Eddie Bernice Johnson of Dallas. But this was all an "Internet rumor". Their budgets go all the way back to Bush 41 and were fully funded by both Slick and Shrub.

But it's all a "rumor" if you inquire.

The "Trans-Texas Corridor" was the Texas portion of this megaproject (rail, truck, and electricity right-of-way). Why it was marketed as a Texas project I don't know -- to conceal its true dimensions? I don't know. But Rick Perry was/is the point man, it involved transferring huge acreages by eminent domain from private owners to the new private owners, which included CINTRA, a Spanish investment firm, and a Texas developer, the "junior partner"/local contractor/contact.

King Juan Carlos of Spain was/is one of CINTRA's private, "top-out-of-sight" (to borrow a term from author Paul Fussell) investors.

Thanks for that very disturbing background.
