Thread: THE LA TIMES ON NAU

This part of an article from the LA TIMES in response to Ron Pauls thouhts that the NAU really exsits. They are trying to make him look stupid. If they did research they would know that TEXAS, his state, has placed a hold on the actual building of this hightway.

Federal and state highway and trade officials and transportation consultants reacted Thursday with befuddlement and amusement. The fearsome secret international highway project Paul described does not exist, they said.

"There is no such superhighway like the one he's talking about," said Ian Grossman, a spokesman with the Federal Highway Administration. "It doesn't exist, in plans or anywhere else."

"It's complete fiction," said Tiffany Melvin, executive director of NASCO, a consortium of transportation agencies and business interests caught in the cross hairs of anti-highway activists. "This is the work of fringe groups that have wrapped a couple of separate projects together into one big paranoid fantasy."

A loose confederation of conservative Internet bloggers and some right-wing groups, among them the John Birch Society, has seized on a burst of activity in federal highway projects in recent years as evidence that the Bush administration is pushing toward a European Union-style government for North America.

The problem, public officials said Thursday, is that the new emphasis on highway construction reflects a growing concern about renewing the crumbling U.S. road system, not a secret extension of the North American Free Trade Agreement.

I really want people jailed on this mess. All of these people passing mis-leading information is just as guilty as the Bush and Clinton organization

They are the ones who lie all the time and keep us in the dark .

Like a spouse who cheats, once you lose trust, you always question their actions .

These leaders deserve none of our trust and every bit of the suspecian they get and more .

I do think they are building this highway and I don't think they are doing road repair , what an insult to add to the injury they bestowed on us .

Our roads are getting to be like third world roads .

Maybe the "journalists" at the LA Times, should talk to some of the people at Ground Zero: www.corridorwatch.com/
