Perry’s push for super highway raises conspiracy buzz
Some say it’s part of a plan to create one nation in North America

Perry enhanced the conspiracy buzz earlier this summer by traveling to Turkey to attend the secretive Bilderberg conference,
which conspiracy theorists believe is a cabal of international monied interests and power brokers pressing for globalization.
The first, and most controversial, leg of the Trans-Texas Corridor plan is a proposed 1,200-foot-wide private toll road
to run from Laredo to the Oklahoma border parallel to Interstate 35. This TTC-35 would be built
by a consortium headed by Spanish owned Cintra S.A. and Zachry Construction Corp. of San Antonio.
Perry fueled his role in the debate in June by attending the Bilderberg annual conference,
a secretive closed-door meeting of about 120 business, government and media leaders from Europe and North America.

that schoolgirls be vaccinated against a sexually transmitted disease linked to cervical cancer.

Critics rip Perry’s vaccine mandate
Governor rejects opponents’ calls to reverse order
AUSTIN — Gov. Rick Perry stood firm Monday against a political firestorm generated by his
order that sixth-grade girls be inoculated against a sexually transmitted virus linked to cervical cancer.
Social conservatives from Texas to Washington called on Perry to reverse his order making
Texas the first state to require the vaccine, saying the mandate makes sex seem permissible
and that parents should be the ones to decide whether to immunize their daughters.
And several Texas lawmakers expressed outrage at Perry for circumventing the legislative process.

The vaccine, Gardasil, is manufactured by Merck, which was represented in Austin by the
lobbyist Mike Toomey, who was chief of staff for Mr. Perry from 2002 to 2004.
I liked the idea of that road. The current I-35 just plain sucks. I am still waiting to see what will be done about I-35. I will wager that hatever is done will have some people in Texas calling whomever tries to fix it a RINO/Globalist/Bilbeberger/Reptilian/Whatever.
