I noticed that no one asked him if he was. Tell me, why do you think he didn't just say no?

MONTEBELLO, Quebec – President Bush today sidestepped a direct question about whether he'd be willing to categorically deny there is a plan to create the North American Union.
Instead, he ridiculed those who believe that is taking place as conspiracy theorists.
The exchange came at a news conference held by Bush, Mexico's President Felipe Calderon, and Canada's Prime Minister Stephen Harper, who met at a resort in the rural woods outside of Ottawa, Quebec, to discuss their latest work on the Security and Prosperity Partnership.
After the trio presented their prepared statement about the SPP, several reporters who had been selected in advance were allowed to ask questions.
When it came time for a question from a Fox News reporter, Bush was asked if he would be willing to categorically deny that there is a plan to create a North American Union, or that there are plans to create NAFTA Superhighways.
"As you three leaders meet here, there are a growing number of people in each of your countries who have expressed concern about the Security and Prosperity Partnership. This is addressed to all three of you. Can you say today that this is not a prelude to a North American Union, similar to a European Union? Are there plans to build some kind of superhighway connecting all three countries? And do you believe all of these theories about a possible erosion of national identity stem from a lack of transparency from this partnership?" was the question, according to a White House transcript.
Reporters at the news conference said he sidestepped, instead adopting the tactic that those who are arguing the European Union model of integrating nations into a larger continental union is being used in North America should be ridiculed.

“They CAN’T die, because there are too many people behind them...”
Well, you have a point there.
“So many pro-illegal, open borders Bushbots, so little time....”
Oh, and it doesn’t go without notice that many of those same freepers are also Fredheads.
I’d be a lot more comfortable if we reverted to English units. The rest of the world would have to retool.
“Conspiracy theories abound because conspiracies really happen. Not every theory turns out to be a real conspiracy, but some of them do.”
Well said. Thank you.
You go girl! It’s not a conspiracy, it’s a movement!
Now we’re in the mocking and ridicule stage. Down the line when it’s being implemented, the people who oppose it will be labeled as “traitors”.
It’s a CONSPIRACY, I tell ya!...............
Just like that amnesty bill.
Hilliary Care - that conspiracy was killed because it was exposed. Lawsuits were won against the participants, for failure to comply with the “sunshine” laws, I believe.
Nobody worries about it anymore - BTW the people who uncovered that conspiracy were ridiculed as well.
A few years ago bush mocked and ridiculed anyone who was concerned about
the invasion of this nation by Illegal Aliens calling them "vigilantes".Now bush mocks and ridicules anyone concerned about supranational unions
as conspiracy theorists.We know now that this country has been invaded by over ten million
members of AZTLAN, MEChA and MS-13 murdering more Americans than those lost in IraqWhat does that say about his statement about the destruction of this Republic
and the creation of the North American Union?
The Washington Times sees it differently:

I would put more stock on the Washington Times’ reporting that World Net Daily.
The President called it a conspiracy and seemed adamant as did the others, there are no such plans for the highway or any highway. I will be looking up to see who is behind the map and story which is old.
No, he’s pointing out the TRUTH...which is that conspiracy theorists need something to distract them from living in their mothers’ basements once in a while, so they invent conspiracies.
“Pay attention to who they’re supporting for president.”
No coincidence or surprise there!
Look at Hillary Clinton. She's made many commie statements in the past and still continues to do so.
Look up the word sophistry...you’ll find your arguement there.
I too can link a lot of semi related nonesense to try and prove a point...it’s a game the whole family can play.
The NAU is a conspiracy theory often sowed in this forum by individuals whose goals are more than just a tad bit questionable...so...hey...let’s drink more Kool Aid and distrust everyone.
Your ability to use sweeping generalizations and other rhetoricle devices is quite good.
Thanks,
Bushbot (for the record I am not pro-illegal, but pro-reasonable legal immigration. I differ with the POTUS on some issues....but I am not a one issue parrot like some.)
I noticed that no one asked him if he was. Tell me, why do you think he didn't just say no?
I watched Bush last night on Fox. He’s pulling the same stunt as he did with the amnesty bill. When he starts to name call his base, you lnow he’s up to something.
I’ve stopped trusting Bush after that amnesty fiasco.
