Conservative blogger John Hawkins of Right Wing News has now decided to join Michael Medved in a new ad hominem attack by using a disparaging adjective to call me a name (kooky) and placing me No. 3 in the list of the 20 people on the right he finds most annoying.
Hawkins places me between No. 2 Mark Foley, whom Hawkins characterizes as a page-molesting pervert, and No. 4 Duke Cunningham, the congressman Hawkins notes is going to jail for 8 years after taking a bribe. I am honored to be included on any list John Hawkins wishes to create. But, as far as I can determine, my offense to Hawkins involves writing with the scope of the 1st Amendment, an offense that Hawkins considers somewhat worse than taking bribes, but not quite as bad as making salacious approaches to underage male employees.
I first want to thank Hawkins for his continuing campaign to draw attention to my arguments.
Second, I wonder how much additional writing I will have to produce before Hawkins reduces himself to the liar, liar ranting stage Michael Medved exhibited in his recent emotional tirade published on Townhall.com. I guess I will have to read more of Hawkinss writing to determine if I find his views annoying, but upon introspection I find I have no emotional reaction whatsoever, even to his characterization that I am somehow annoying to him. Perhaps President Bush drew solace that he was listed seven positions below me on Hawkinss most annoying list. I apologize to President Bush that Hawkins could not find a better pejorative for him than incompetent. Clearly in Hawkinss hierarchy to be kooky in writing a political commentary is much more annoying to him than to be merely incompetent in conducting the affairs of the nations highest elected post.
Arguing that my writings advance a completely moronic North American conspiracy theory, Hawkins linked to an old post he had written on his blog last summer. In an exchange published in July on HUMAN EVENTS Right Angle blog, I answered these and other objections raised by Hawkins. The exchange ended when Hawkins chose not to respond. Hawkins has never answered my last specific rebuttals published on the blog. Merely repeating his initial arguments would be considered non responsive in traditional debate theory.
Besides, I have never argued a North American conspiracy. The European Union and the Euro are realities today, not a conspiracy theory. So too, North American integration is proceeding rapidly right now, fully documented, as the Security and Prosperity Partnership of North America attests if you reference the Department of Commerce website SPP.gov. Equally, the Trans-Texas Corridor is proceeding rapidly, as documented by the Texas Department of Commerce website. If either the Security and Prosperity Partnership of North America or the Trans-Texas Corridor is a conspiracy, the conspiracy is being perpetrated by government officials on their public websites.
We will grant that the now public writings of those who advanced the European Union, such as the memoirs of EU intellectual architect Jean Monnet, confess after the fact that a stealth method was pursued to create the European Union. As Christopher Booker and Richard North, co-authors of the 2003 book, The Great Deception: A Secret History of the European Union, write that Jean Monnet knew that only by operating in the shadows, behind a cloak of obscurity could he one day realize his dream. Architects of North American integration, such as Robert Pastor of American University, breathe new life into stealth politics when suggesting openly that a new 9/11 crisis may be just the event needed to advance his agenda for creating the North American Community he openly professes.
At any rate, I invite Hawkins to resume his debate with me. To make the process easy, we will link to the exchange. Seeing that I wrote the last rejoinder there, the next move appears to be up to Hawkins. Is Hawkins up to calm, rational debate, or does he want to leave his comments at the level of calumny, an ad hominem attack which always belies an inability to win the argument any other way?
My writing has been aimed at making sure that North American integration does not advance to the point where a North American Union emerges after what may be a decades-long incremental process. I want to be sure that the United States does not follow the template set in place by how the European Union and the euro emerged over some fifty years, driven by an intellectual elite and evolving step-by-step from an initial, seemingly innocuous continental steel and coal agreement.
What is it exactly that Hawkins finds annoyingthat a NAU and the Amero could be the end result of the North American integration currently happening, or that I might suggest the Bush Administration could be following the Jean Monnet path intentionally?
Read post #98. Can you imagine when Mexico is part of this North American Army and Spanglish is the language of choice. LOLOLOL.
You are in need of education. Until you have one better than you currently do, you are going to continue to not have a clue about understanding the world beyond your own picket fence.
What do you mean by "this?"
For myself, I prefer to take the word of at least three congress folks who are opposed to the NAU than someone who has a vested interest in promoting it.

Another source known to Alex Jones called the Austin Police Department and they said that they knew about the armed [Mexican troops assisting in Katrina relief efforts]. The police asked if the troops had threatened the caller. The caller said they threaten the sovereignty of the country and the police laughed and hung up.

On the mark! 'Homeland' it is becoming, as in the North American Homeland. Check my reference to that in my 'linguistics' link above.
Heh! Difficult to separate the wheat from the chaff at times.
Comprehensive immigration better known as "amnesty".
Now you are starting to see why the Department of Homeland Security was created. If you read the original law, it never talks about protecting human life (American citizens) but about infrastructure and investment. It was the brainchild of the leftist Rand Corporation and CSIS, who now receive massive grants of taxpayer money to implement the policies they recommend. Airport security-- a way for BUSINESS to foist the cost of security guards for their private business assets, without spending a DIME of THEIR OWN MONEY, by having the federal government create a new freedom-offending agency to do it. Pure profit for them, pure nightmare for American citizens and our RIGHTS.
This is the nightmare scenario no American ever thought we'd be subjected to, melding business with big government, it is so-called soft fascism.
I already did.
I am not amused.
Interesting link. Thanks.
I should have put a sarcasm tag by the Spanglish comment. I am not amused either. I am just amazed that so much is done behind our backs and is actually a done deal when we find out about it.
When we American citizens have to find out via FOIA, then you know that something is terribly wrong with the system. They can call us conspiracy nuts all they want but notice they continue to read our threads to find out what is going on in this country.
So what you meant to say was, All the free traders want to claim Reagan was for . . . [c]omprehensive immigration better known as amnesty. Is that correct?
Your welcome, texastoo.
