Yes the US has been moving toward biometric identification long before the SPP. Because the 'think tanks' thunk it up, somebody had to come along and implement it. Is that what they are paying you to do? You so profoundly defend treason and the theft of individual rights, you clearly have a stake in it.

Need for integrated North American border security system

Three former high-ranking government officials from Canada, Mexico, and the United States are calling for a North American economic and security community by 2010 to address shared security threats, among other challenges to the three countries. Former Canadian Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Finance John P. Manley, former Finance Minister of Mexico Pedro Aspe, and former Governor of Massachusetts and Assistant U.S. Attorney General William F. Weld make policy recommendations to articulate a long-term vision for North America in a Chairmen's Statement of the Independent Task Force on the Future of North America sponsored by the Council on Foreign Relations in association with the Consejo Mexicano de Asuntos Internacionale and the Canadian Council of Chief Executives.

Chief Executive of the Canadian Council of Chief Executives Thomas d'Aquino, President of the Consejo Mexicano de Asuntos Internacionales Andres Rozental, and Director of the Center for North American Studies at American University Robert A. Pastor serve as vice chairs of the Task Force. Chappell H. Lawson, associate professor of political science at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, is the director.

Initial findings and recommendations included building a North American economic and security community by 2010. To enhance security, the chairs propose a community defined by a common external tariff and an outer security perimeter. The chairs are proposing a border pass, with biometric indicators, which would allow expedited passage through customs, immigration, and airport security throughout North America. "The governments of Canada, Mexico, and the United States should commit themselves to the long-term goal of dramatically reducing the need for physical scrutiny of traffic, travel, and trade within North America."

Council on Foreign Relations, government officials and Robert Pastor all working together to articulate a long term vision for North America that is anti-American, outside of their constitutional rights as citizens and just plain treason against the American people.

The CFR came up with the idea, and now the SPP is suddently created without congressional oversight or without the request of the American people and they are moving full bore to implement biometric passports. How much are they paying you to defend them?

Darn it, hedge, four-and-a-half days ago on this very thread I directed someone to the "Enhanced Border Security and Visa Entry Reform Act of 2002, and subsequent amendments." How the heck can you argue with a straight face that there is no congressional oversight when Congress passed the authorizing legislation? (That's our Congress, the U.S. Congress).
