So exactly what IS Bush's motivation for the stance he has taken? Are W and the 'Rat$ concerned about the price of illegal drugs in America's big cities?

Ms. Schafly is a Catholic. She should ask the hierarchy of her church why they are strenuously lobbying for this legislation, which - as she notes - would destroy America as we know it (and make it resemble one of the corrupt impoverished Catholic countries from which the new immigrants will be coming)

Well, the Security and Prosperity Partnership is real enough. Here's a link to the official government site:

Folks can read the info there and make upo their own minds...but I do not go along with it in the least.

Here's the mission staement:

To enhance the competitive position of North American industries in the global marketplace and to provide greater economic opportunity for all of our societies, while maintaining high standards of health and safety for our people, the United States, Mexico, and Canada will work together, and in consultation with stakeholders, to: Improve Productivity, Reduce the Cost of Trade, Enhance the Quality of Life.

Sorry...but "our" people as far as I am concerned are the citizens of the United States. You are not going to "lift" the Mexican population as a part of "our" people, without lowering the whole. They have to "lift" themselves and be willing to spend the resources and make the sacrifices to do that. But the Security portion of the Agenda gives a clue as to how the SPP intends to do it...here's a pertinent security goals:

Further streamline the secure movement of low-risk traffic across our shared borders

Clearly the Senate is on board with this travesty. Thank God the House is not.

I think we are seeing the outward demonstration of a fairly significant internal struggle regarding this critical issue in the two seperate plans/bills from the House and Senate, and the debate going on regarding them.

Domestic enemies are organizing protests that clearly lean in support of plans similar to, or even more radical than what the SPP proposed.

We the people must ensure that the House holds the line, that the Senators voting for their bill are soundly whipped in public opinion and at the polls, and that the Senators who opposed it, and who are pro-American in their other positions, are complimented and supported as a result.
