Yep....
There is quite a bit of corruption in Austin and Rick Perry is at the center of a lot of it - if not most of it. Ironic that he ran for president as an "anti-establishment"/"anti-Washington insider" (which would imply "anti-corruption") candidate.
The Trans Texas Corridor, even if it didn't involve the foreign companies, had to be about the stupidest idea I've ever heard of.
