Thanks.
It's so easy for Freepers to be swayed by reactionary articles these days.
I can't speak for anyone else here, but two years ago I'd have thought that the NAU and SPP folks were like those who believe in UFOs, too. But the European Union's Constitution - which I read in it entirety before it was voted down by the individual nations - was a helluva frightening document. I kept thinking to myself that if the Europeans allowed that to happen they were fools, and I comforted myself that it could never happen here.
But then I read the CFR's report "Building a North American Community." It is uncomfortably similar to the EU. Though some here like to contend that the CFR takes in all points of view and is just a think tank, it does, in fact, produce task force reports that are intended as "concrete policy recommendations." CFR members are like a who's who of American politics - both sides of the aisle.
Then there's little things, like the SPP and the super highway and this amnesty bill with its Z visas that - taken one at a time might not be so bad - but as a whole start to add up to the North American Community as envisioned by CFR.
I don't know that there's an effort underway to push through the NAU, but there's enough evidence for me that I don't consider opposition to it to be reactionary or mob mentality. And discussing it, I think, hardly qualifies one to be placed in the same category as MUFON.
Space ships from another planet are one kind of conspiracy - corruption among people with political power is another kind altogether.
If the New Deal and Great Society didn't teach us anything else, they should have taught us that if you give the government a little it will take the rest.
I can't see how this agreement could be even close to a Constitution.
