The Council on Foreign Relations (CFR) has just let the cat out of the bag about what's really behind our trade agreements and security partnerships with the other North American countries. A 59-page CFR document spells out a five-year plan for the "establishment by 2010 of a North American economic and security community" with a common "outer security perimeter."
...
The experience of the European Union and the World Trade Organization makes it clear that a common market requires a court system, so the CFR document calls for "a permanent tribunal for North American dispute resolution." Get ready for decisions from non-American judges who make up their rules ad hoc and probably hate the United States anyway.
(It) calls for allowing Mexican trucks "unlimited access" to the United States, including the hauling of local loads between U.S. cities. The CFR document calls for adopting a "tested once" principle for pharmaceuticals, by which a product tested in Mexico will automatically be considered to have met U.S. standards.
(It) demands that we implement "the Social Security Totalization Agreement negotiated between the United States and Mexico." That's code language for putting illegal aliens into the U.S. Social Security system, which is bound to bankrupt the system.
Here's another handout included in the plan. U.S. taxpayers are supposed to create a major fund to finance 60,000 Mexican students to study in U.S. colleges.
To ensure that the U.S. government carries out this plan so that it is "achievable" within five years, the CFR calls for supervision by a North American Advisory Council of "eminent persons from outside government . . . along the lines of the Bilderberg" conferences.

Ask your Senators and Representatives which side they are on: the CFR's integrated North American Community or U.S. sovereignty guarded by our own borders.

Pretty strong uh "opinions" there from such a newbie troll.

As an aside, note Pat Robertson, televangalist supreme. In 1991 he wrote a book called "The New World Order," in which the corrupting influence of the CFR is a major theme. Since then, he's been somehow coopted; he's dumped almost all the investments of his "religious" organizations and corporations into communist China, and mutters nary a peep about the CFR.
//Not taking sides on this issue; just pointing out an irony.
Oh, and don't take the inevitable bot counterattacks seriously. You forgot to genuflect when you mentioned W.
This is beyond words. Explains a lot about Presidente Bush's stance on the border. He doesn't want one.
If Bush signed off on this then he should be impeached! And just think of the upsides if he is impeached: 1) Helen Thomas has promised to off herself; 2) Someone might finally do something about securing our borders
It's a think tank. Nothing more.
Living just 70 miles from DC, I will just roll over and go to back to sleep when the nuke goes off, knowing that Cheney is safe in his bunker.
BUMP
I sure hope so. What else explains the Presidente's erectile dysfunction on the border?
One thing I have never been called is a BushBot. But his comments were despicable, calling the President a "domestic enemy".
Like I said, //not taking sides
However, what's up with this First Amendment thing? I know FR is a nascent theocracy, but how about strongly-worded dissidence?
You are correct. You must admit, however, a think tank with such a prestigious membership to be promoting something like this is pretty sickening, right?
Maybe you should consider the fact that the Council on Foreign Relations isn't a government agency and has nothing to do with the Bush administration.
Don't let facts get in a way you Bush Bot /s
The Council on Foreign Relations And the Trilateral Commission
Congressmen John R. Rarick had warned:
"The CFR, dedicated to one-world government, financed by a number of the largest tax-exempt foundations, and wielding such power and influence over our lives in the areas of finance, business, labor, military, education, and mass communication-media, should be familiar to every American concerned with good government, and with preserving and defending the U.S. Constitution and our free-enterprise system.
Yet, the nation’s right-to-know machinery, the news media, usually so aggressive in exposures to inform our people, remain conspicuously silent when it comes to the CFR, its members and their activities.
"The CFR is the establishment. Not only does it have influence and power in key decision-making positions at the highest levels of government to apply pressure from above, but it also finances and uses individuals and groups to bring pressure from below, to justify the high level decisions for converting the U.S. from a sovereign Constitution Republic into a servile member of a one-world dictatorship."
I'd have to read actual CFR proposal before I had a firm reaction. There is a certain element within conservatism that believes anything the CFR proposes is part of some grand conspiracy. They often propose crummy stuff, but some of their work is pretty insightful. It just depends.
This one doesn't sound particularly good, but it's undoubtedly being spun in this article to look as bad as possible. It's red meat to the tinfoil crowd, just as intended.
Some people here are ready to impeach Bush because of a story issued by a think tank. We're not dealing with rational people here.
Man, that zot was under the radar. No cool pics or anything. Must be Monday.
You sure are eager to bash Bush and throw out words like 'impeachment'. If NARAL or PETA proposes something bad, should we impeach Bush for that too?
