>>What is your opinion of post #86.<<

that Phyllis has lost whatever judgment she used to have.

Actually I take that back - I've just reread #86 three more times. I think she is being deliberately misleading and actually does understand. She carefully avoids specific falsehoods that can be checked.

>>"Community" means integrating the United States with the corruption, socialism, poverty and population of Mexico and Canada. "Common perimeter" means wide-open U.S. borders between the U.S., Mexico and Canada.<<

This is just wrong - as I noted above the CFR plan is for a much higher level of border security, maybe too high because of the restrictions it places on Americans.

>The CFR document lays "the groundwork for the freer flow of people within North America." The "common security perimeter" will require us to "harmonize visa and asylum regulations" with Mexico and Canada, "harmonize entry screening," and "fully share data about the exit and entry of foreign nationals."<<

She makes this sound negative - they are talking about increasing border security in all three coutries to keep drugs and terrorists from even getting into North America.

There are two legitimate concerns about the CFR/Homeland security department plan - one is guest workers and/or increased legal immigration and Phyllis does touch on that

>>The CFR document calls for creating a "North American preference" so that employers can recruit low-paid workers from anywhere in North America. No longer will illegal aliens have to be smuggled across the border; employers can openly recruit foreigners willing to work for a fraction of U.S. wages.<<

But these conspiracy rants detract from real discussion of the plan - the major flaw in the plan is that it doesn't deal with 12 million+ illegals already here.

Of course, you may be correct and I will give it serious consideration.

What major flaw? If borders are non existent and we are the North American Continent, there won't be such a thing as illegal aliens.
