Documents disclose 'shadow government' Indicate U.S. far advanced in constructing bureaucracy united with Mexico, Canada

Government documents released by a Freedom of Information Act request reveal the Bush administration is running a "shadow government" with Mexico and Canada in which the U.S. is crafting a broad range of policy in conjunction with its neighbors to the north and south, asserts WND columnist and author Jerome R. Corsi.

The documents, a total of about 1,000 pages, are among the first to be released to Corsi through his FOIA request to the Security and Prosperity Partnership of North America, or SPP, which describes itself as an initiative "to increase security and to enhance prosperity among the three countries through greater cooperation."

"The documents clearly reveal that SPP, working within the U.S. Department of Commerce, is far advanced in putting together a new regional infrastructure, creating a 'shadow' trilateral bureaucracy with Mexico and Canada that is aggressively rewriting a wide range of U.S. administrative law, all without congressional oversight or public disclosure," Corsi said.

Among the initial discoveries, said Corsi, is the existence of an internal Intranet website that never has been revealed to Congress or the public.

"This private internal website," he claims, "undoubtedly contains a wealth of documentation that the FOIA request has so far intentionally excluded."

Corsi told WND the documents reveal hundreds of internal meetings, memoranda of understanding and other referenced agreements that have not been disclosed.

"We have here the beginnings of a whitewash," he said, "in which SPP evidently thinks the public will be hoodwinked by a 'Myths vs. Facts' document posted for public relations purposes on their public website."

Among the documents is an organizational chart accompanied by a listing of trilateral Mexican, Canadian and U.S. administrative officers who report on multiple cabinet level "working groups."

I merely posted this because I wanted people to discount it with fact........ not react with silly ridicule.

If you don't like it, if you are going to act like a simple liberal in your response, that is your choice.

What we are looking at right now in this hemisphere really is the second-generation problem, or second-generation issues, of governmental and societal transformation. This is really, in the Western Hemisphere, about how you link democracy and development. It's about how you show that democracy is not a conservative form of government designed to protect the privileges of elites, but is actually a revolutionary form of government that is designed to break open societies. It is designed to create opportunities not only for political participation, but for economic and social participation, and that as we think about democracy we need to think about it in much larger terms than just voting or electoral mechanisms or machineries. We need to think about it in terms of a democratic state -- not just a democratic government, but a democratic state -- and all that means for political citizenship, for economic citizenship and for social citizenship.

---Thomas Shannon, Assistant Secretary of State for Western Hemisphere Affairs

This anti-American speech is brought to you by the US taxpayer, through the taxpayer funded US State Department.

You'll need to be fitted for your straight jacket.

Thank you. I elect to ridicule it. I am having fun and I know you want me to have fun.

[hedgetrimmer]

What about Thomas Shannon?

[beyond the sea]

I'm merely listening.

If we don't study these claims before anything like this could happen, then we deserve what we get.

Got it?

Turn on the damn show and quit acting like someone from the other side.

I elect to ridicule it

Because you were instructed to use it to disrupt constructive political discourse. Otherwise you would have researched an actual refutation.

Sorry Miss Cleo. It is late and I have exhausted my serious side on serious threads today.
