Perry Trans-Texas Corridor Clock

The Perry Trans-Texas Corridor Clock keeps track of the time until Rick Perry, himself, answers the question: Do you still support the Trans-Texas Corridor? Last Thursday, Rick Perry dodged the question, refused to answer and only said that he supports "building transportation infrastructure." However, for the thousands of Texans who faced the prospect of losing their homes at the hands of Rick Perry's unprecedented, government land grab, the answer to this question from Rick Perry is critical. They are watching and we are counting the time.

Background: When Asked On August 6th If He Still Supported The Trans-Texas Corridor, Rick Perry Dodged The Question, Would Not Answer Directly And Only Responded That The TTC Had "Gone Away." "Q: Do you still support the Trans-Texas Corridor? Why or why not? A: 'I support building transportation infrastructure. The Trans-Texas Corridor is gone away. The name, the concept, the legislature decided to do away with that last year. But we will need to continue to upgrade and maintain our transportation system in the state. My big concern is that we have the resources to do that and to make sure we prioritize. Businesses will not move to Texas if they think they can't move their product or their people efficiently or effectively.'" (Victoria Advocate Website, www.victoriaadvocate.com, Accessed 8/7/09)
