kinky....maybe??....

Even if you lose land what you have adjacent to will be instantly worth a SHITLOAD. And lots of people make the drive in between San Antonio up to the metroplex, which is bad enough now as it is. There is fixing to be a shitload more people here and you will be glad when we have a system that can handle it.

Why would the land be worth a shitload? I can see why the land by an exit/on ramp would be worth a lot but the majority wont do anything. The purpose of this freeway is a wide, fast moving corridor with few exits and on ramps to slow down traffic. So if you dont have land by one of those exits and on ramps............well your shit outa luck! Also the company being contracted to do the building of this highway...they gain control of all buisness establishments along the freeway for a specific length of time. Yet ANOTHER way they are shafting the little guy

...Also the company being contracted to do the building of this highway...they gain control of all buisness establishments along the freeway for a specific length of time...

Huh? Do you mean they gain control by making it difficult for traffic to enter and exit said businesses? or do they actually send in their flagmen to manage the burger joint while they're working nearby? Or what the hell are you talking about?

How about bringing this thread back on track...

I'm still waiting for Sid to defend his original statements because he provides no facts or references to support his fantasies. Here's what he said:

Now that Kinky’s in second place and a serious threat to the two-party system, Perry and Bell have paid political assassins to dig back as far as 30 years through fictional books, comedy shows and satirical song lyrics, desperately seeking to paint Kinky as a racist.

Again, Friedman is NOT in "second place" Sid, he's in FOURTH and Perry and Bell do not have "paid political assassins" because as I mentioned earlier, since Friedman is a distant fourth and no real threat to either of the major party candidates, why would they waste resources trying to "smear" him?

[CoventryCat86]

While Rick Perry was cheerleading in college and Chris Bell was being potty trained, Kinky Friedman was picketing segregated restaurants in Austin to integrate them. Now that Kinky’s in second place and a serious threat to the two-party system, Perry and Bell have paid political assassins to dig back as far as 30 years through fictional books, comedy shows and satirical song lyrics, desperately seeking to paint Kinky as a racist.

Republicans and Democrats have created an entire industry-- called Opposition Research-- whose sole purpose is to tarnish and destroy people’s reputations. This is why regular citizens don't run for office. If you do, and you start to threaten the system as Kinky has, you’re going to be attacked.

Kinky has overcome all of the obstacles placed before him - getting on the ballot, raising millions of dollars, building the largest grassroots network Texas has ever seen, and breaking 20% in the polls months ago. He's a serious threat to the establishment, and when you threaten the political establishment, they use the money generated from their formidable fundraising machines to pay for "dirty tricks" tactics to manipulate the press.

It's a slimy industry that exists for the sole purpose of destroying people and -- like cockroaches-- scurries for the shadows whenever a light is shined on it.

The latest political assassination attempt takes completely out of context a controversial word that Kinky was using in a 1980 stand-up performance to lampoon racists. Playing a character on stage, Kinky was exposing bigotry through comedy and satire.

It’s pathetic that the major-party candidates have sunk to this – trying to paint Kinky as a racist when, in fact, he was poking fun at racists. Shame on the press for being complicit. Rather than confront our opponents on their tactics and get the full story, they are allowing industries like opposition research to exist and operate outside the understanding of most voters.

Now Sid, please admit where you REALLY found this. At first, you led us to believe that these were YOUR words. A couple of days ago, you said you "googled it" so I did that too and found out the truth which is that you lifted it verbatim from HERE which is the "Kinky Friedman for Governor 2006" website, far from a fair and impartial "source."

I'm very disappointed with you because you certainlly lead the members here to believe that you authored this when in fact you did not. In the future, please either provide a link and/or give the proper attribution to where you found your words.

Kinky Friedman is not going to win and the major political parties DO NOT have "paid assassins" digging up dirt on a guy who is in fourth in a five man race.

Nice try.

hey bill...go fuck yourself....i googled it...c/p'ed it...they weren't my words...and in the grand scheme of things...it's no big fucking deal...i don't give a flying fuck about kinky friedman....as i stated earlier...he could win,lose,or open a chain of kosher hot dog stands...I DON"T GIVE A SHIT!!!!

Now now, Sid, no need to "meltdown" You got caught with your pants down and this is how you react?

Someone in control of himself would have simply said "You're right, I should have made it clear that I copied the material from another site, thanks for making me aware!"

Can you please knock of the childish nonsense with your fixation with a "power play?" "Several" people requested a ban poll on someone who should be considered for a ban based on how he acts around here, it's as simple as that. You're letting your warped imagination run wild here Sid, that's not a good thing, there was no conspiracy or "power play" so that dog won't hunt.

And no Sid, this isn't "stalking" as you put it, it's a simple matter of exposing you for what you are, you started this thread in order to enrage people against the two major parties, implying that they had "paid assassins" as Kinky put it.

The point is why bother with crap like this Sid, it's a "cigar" board. Go spread your left wing political views and use your devious tactics somewhere else, not here please, okay?

Thanks for your cooperation and understanding.

Homeboy didn't even concede the race. Not very "Texan" of him in my book.

C'mon, Bill - he had quite a substantial win over Werner and damn near overtook Strayhorn. He's just picking up steam...

[cigar no baka]

Yep, Friedman almost caught up with Grandma, who I can't stand. Not too fond of Perry either but he's better than Bell.
