I read your letter twice Fox and wondered WHY they're pushing this through TEXAS, and a lightbulb went off in my head. How about Republican right wing funding?

I have seen the United Way or Salvation Army used as fronts before.
I wouldn't be a BIT surprised if this "college" was being set up as a front to launder money.
