***Let's agree to stop calling the NAU a "conspiracy," OK? Damn few "conspiracies" spell out their plans on their own web site.***

Your post made me reconsider. I then googled and found a site I had seen before, www.spp.gov

Chilling stuff. I stand corrected. I generally mistrust World Nut Daily, but the NAU could indeed be a key factor in this mess.

In re www.spp.gov:

Thanks for providing the link. The NAU is definitely where the honchos think this is heading. How fast? How far?

Like most of us, you probably aren’t accustomed to watching Lou Dobbs, though it is often covered by Glenn Beck as well...but here are some of Dobb’s stories and others about the creation of a North American Union, including the secret meeting held in Banff, Canada and the nexts steps in the agenda...secured open borders, amnesty for illegals and their employers. Steps already taken/in the works...Western Hemisphere Travel Initiative, TransTexas Corridor, Eminent Domain, and Mexican Trucking...
