Border Fence To Bypass Property Of Wealthy Oilman Who Donated $35 Million To Bush Library

rayhunt4.gif In October 2006, President Bush authorized the construction of a 700-mile border fence between the United States and Mexico. Now, however, the Department of Homeland Security’s construction plans are facing opposition from Texans who object to the fence cutting through their property. The Washington Post reports on the hard line the Bush administration is taking with these protesting landowners:

In December, officials sent warning letters to 135 private landowners, municipalities, universities, public utility companies and conservation societies along the border that had turned away surveyors. Landowners were given 30 days to change their minds or face legal action. More than 100 of them — 71 in Texas — let the deadline pass.

Over the past several weeks, U.S. attorneys acting on behalf of the Homeland Security Department have been filing lawsuits against the holdouts.

DHS has no problem pursuing elderly and struggling homeowners. In the small town of Granjeno (pop. 313), however, the border fence would, conveniently, “abruptly end” at the property owned by Dallas billionaire Ray L. Hunt.

It’s not surprising that the administration would be hesitant to upset Hunt, who was a Bush-Cheney campaign “Pioneer” in 2000. More recently, Hunt “donated $35 million to Southern Methodist University to help build Bush’s presidential library.” In 2001, Bush appointed Hunt to his Foreign Intelligence Advisory Board, granting him “a security clearance and access to classified intelligence.”

Hunt, one of the wealthiest oilmen in the world, previously served on the board of Halliburton and was National Petroleum Council chairman between 1991 and 1994.

Daniel Garza, a 76-year old man who might lose his home to the border fence’s intrusion, noted, “I don’t see why they have to destroy my home, my land, and let the wall end there.” Pointing across the street to Hunt’s land, he added, “How will that stop illegal immigration?

Digg It!

    The border in some places is indistinguishable, a State Park in McAllen area straddles the border, with one step you are in Mexico. Hey, just expedite the work visas, using a databank for those coming over. Then cameras and more Border Agents to catch those not wanting to use the visa program. Such a foolish idea, a 700 mile fence.

    GG – you are quite a predictable person. When I read the topic of this thread, I knew you – or someone like you – would get the progressive’s position on this issue wrong – again.

    Building fences does not keep out anybody or anything. So the logic of us building a wall thousands of miles long seems like more of a jobs program than a security issue. I thought the right side was against jobs programs.

    Also, I know you admire your King, but we are in America now. He cannot just select the location where the fence was to go. Do you want the wealthy and connected to be able to circumvent proper law? I thought the right side was a law an order bunch. Not tue if it is one of your own, huh?


  15. Bobwurst says:

    The unintended consequence is that mr hunt is about to have a huge problem with people walking through his property. Unless he invites cheney down for a hunting party.

    Imminent domain, it’s the same law that governments invoke when building something that benefits all of us, such as expanding a freeway. But the issue here is the inequity & favoritism, not whether or not the government has the right.

    I know how to solve illegal immigration AND find all the missing criminals in the US. EVERY single building should have a biometric scanner linked directly to the FBI, CIA, and NSA. Everyone would be required to be scanned before entering a building. We could have a curfew of 10:00pm. Anyone outside at that time will be picked up and deported or jailed. This way the FBI,CIA, NSA, etc… will always know where everyone is. sounds great, huh?. This place will be so miserable, that no one will want come here … AWESOME!

    OR

    We could punish the companies that are hiring undocumented workers because they are trying to get around the US labor laws and make a few extra dollars. No one is going to try to get here illegally if they know they will not be able to get a job. Let’s not criminalize those that are looking for a better life, instead, let’s punish and criminalize those exploiting and abusing people looking for a better life.

    No, I still think the border fence is a rather stupid idea that will cost a great deal of money and it won’t stop illegal border crossings (I’ll grant you it will slow them down a little while tunnels are dug).

    And a border fence that looks like swiss cheese due to FOBs not wanting it on their property will make it both expensive and even LESS effective.

    But it doesn’t really matter. The GOP is only doing this whole wall thing to appease the xenophobes within their party. The business interests know the wall won’t work and they’re counting on that. Now if their supply of cheap immigrant labor REALLY dried up, they’d have a problem.


  20. gummitch says:

    I don’t know how many of you followed the link to the story from the Texas Observer but you should. The wall avoids country clubs and Hunt’s housing development and runs right through city parks, college campuses and working people’s land–and no one takes any accountability for the decisions. Further proof that the Bush administration and its hack appointees are just an extension of the corruption that is Texas.

    Absolutely, I keep forgetting that. Where you take away the $30+ billion annually from Mexico’s economy, it’s morally correct to replace their revenues by recalibrating the trade agreements of concern so that foreigners don’t have to move hundreds, if not thousands, of miles away from their families just to provide for them.

    I feared I would stir up the locals with my comment, but from my experience there are very few places in the country where such blatant behavior — did you read the article? — could take place, and I’ve read enough by Molly Ivins to know that Texas really does have a special relationship between the wealthy and “their” government.

    And, yes, the wealthy up in Massachusetts (I believe) followed the usual NIMBY behavior of wealthy people everywhere, but they didn’t arrange to have those turbines built on the land of poor and middle-class people just next door, nor did they arrange that a row of turbines would be created that would just skip their view and their country club’s view . . .

    However, it pisses me off that the government even has the right to be able to do anything like this which includes the inequity and the favoritism at other people’s expense. And 700 miles of it? That’s more land than is needed to build a freeway. Sorry, guess I didn’t make that clear earlier.

    Anyway, building the fence is a stupid idea. Go after the employers.

    I doubt that TP was expressing support for the fence as much as they were pointing out typical GOP hypocrisy.
