An interesting tie to GWB
I live in Texas and have lived here all of my life. I have noticed, recently, new signs on the highways here. Apparently, Texas is now contracting with private companies to keep their highways up. One particular company I took note of was Infrastructure Corporation of America.

I looked it up and the President and CEO is Edward R. Hamberger. I looked up Edward R. Hamberger. He is a major contributor to the Bush campaign coffers. I wonder if this was a no-bid contract, too?

I also notice that they are working on the highways in Florida, as well.

This might be something that we need to poke our noses into.
