His website says nothing about his stance on tolling. I've contacted him and am waiting a response.<BR/>http://www.laukhuf4wilco.com/ <BR/><BR/>North Austin/Wilco residents in Precinct 1 need to be more educated about Birkman. I don't think her toll road positions are well known and I don't think she's done a good job getting roads built in our congested area.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12974737.post-58058994338188974602008-01-15T22:55:00.000-06:002008-01-15T22:55:00.000-06:00You can just see their brains working:"Wait a minu...You can just see their brains working:<BR/><BR/>"Wait a minute..

Absolutely hilarious: 1.3 miles of toll road. LOL! What a joke! This is really starting to get silly. Every tiny little patch of road is now being considered for tolling. It was dumb enough that they were about to put a toll on the William Cannon 'bridge' in South Austin (A TOLL FOR A FRICKEN OVERPASS!!!) which was what, a mile or two??? Now this. Sickening man, just SICK. I cringe everytime I see a new Ben Wear article, because it's probably going to be about another planned toll road.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
