I don't care about you and your incorrect assumptions about me, either. Still, you are right about the James White Parkway extension.

It's merely a re-branded, re-packaged Vestal. This road project was a bad idea when then-Senator Atchley secured the funding from Big Daddy McWherter in the 1986 Road Bill. And it's a bad idea now.
