WSJ says lots of things, doesn't mean they're in control of our government.
Good G*d, leaping to conclusions like that, no wonder you think everyone else is nutz.
Would you agree that the WSJ often contains musings of leading economic thinkers & think tanks from which administrations have occasionally been known to draw ideas for policy? Is it really so outrageous to imagine that there there are some in positions of influence who think a EU style union might be a good thing for our hemisphere as well?
