North American Union to Replace USA? ("is this the plan?" alert!)

[Dark Skies]

President Bush is pursuing a globalist agenda to create a North American Union, effectively erasing our borders with both Mexico and Canada. This was the hidden agenda behind the Bush administration's true open borders policy.

Secretly, the Bush administration is pursuing a policy to expand NAFTA to include Canada, setting the stage for North American Union designed to encompass the U.S., Canada, and Mexico. What the Bush administration truly wants is the free, unimpeded movement of people across open borders with Mexico and Canada.

President Bush intends to abrogate U.S. sovereignty to the North American Union, a new economic and political entity which the President is quietly forming, much as the European Union has formed.

The blueprint President Bush is following was laid out in a 2005 report entitled "Building a North American Community" published by the left-of-center Council on Foreign Relations (CFR). The CFR report connects the dots between the Bush administration's actual policy on illegal immigration and the drive to create the North American Union:

At their meeting in Waco, Texas, at the end of March 2005, U.S. President George W. Bush, Mexican President Vicente Fox, and Canadian Prime Minister Paul Martin committed their governments to a path of cooperation and joint action. We welcome this important development and offer this report to add urgency and specific recommendations to strengthen their efforts.

What is the plan? Simple, erase the borders. The plan is contained in a "Security and Prosperity Partnership of North America" little noticed when President Bush and President Fox created it in March 2005:

In March 2005, the leaders of Canada, Mexico, and the United States adopted a Security and Prosperity Partnership of North America (SPP), establishing ministerial-level working groups to address key security and economic issues facing North America and setting a short deadline for reporting progress back to their governments. President Bush described the significance of the SPP as putting forward a common commitment "to markets and democracy, freedom and trade, and mutual prosperity and security." The policy framework articulated by the three leaders is a significant commitment that will benefit from broad discussion and advice. The Task Force is pleased to provide specific advice on how the partnership can be pursued and realized.

To that end, the Task Force proposes the creation by 2010 of a North American community to enhance security, prosperity, and opportunity. We propose a community based on the principle affirmed in the March 2005 Joint Statement of the three leaders that "our security and prosperity are mutually dependent and complementary." Its boundaries will be defined by a common external tariff and an outer security perimeter within which the movement of people, products, and capital will be legal, orderly and safe. Its goal will be to guarantee a free, secure, just, and prosperous North America.

The perspective of the CFR report allows us to see President Bush's speech to the nation as nothing more than public relations posturing and window dressing. No wonder President Vincente Fox called President Bush in a panic after the speech. How could the President go back on his word to Mexico by actually securing our border? Not to worry, President Bush reassured President Fox. The National Guard on the border were only temporary, meant to last only as long until the public forgets about the issue, as has always been the case in the past.

The North American Union plan, which Vincente Fox has every reason to presume President Bush is still following, calls for the only border to be around the North American Union -- not between any of these countries. Or, as the CFR report stated:

The three governments should commit themselves to the long-term goal of dramatically diminishing the need for the current intensity of the governments’ physical control of cross-border traffic, travel, and trade within North America. A long-term goal for a North American border action plan should be joint screening of travelers from third countries at their first point of entry into North America and the elimination of most controls over the temporary movement of these travelers within North America.

Discovering connections like this between the CFR recommendations and Bush administration policy gives credence to the argument that President Bush favors amnesty and open borders, as he originally said. Moreover, President Bush most likely continues to consider groups such as the Minuteman Project to be "vigilantes," as he has also said in response to a reporter's question during the March 2005 meeting with President Fox.

Why doesn’t President Bush just tell the truth? His secret agenda is to dissolve the United States of America into the North American Union. The administration has no intent to secure the border, or to enforce rigorously existing immigration laws. Securing our border with Mexico is evidently one of the jobs President Bush just won't do. If a fence is going to be built on our border with Mexico, evidently the Minuteman Project is going to have to build the fence themselves. Will President Bush protect America's sovereignty, or is this too a job the Minuteman Project will have to do for him?

Kansas City - railroad hub

Missouri Kansas City is a major hub for railroads and can be dangerous for hitchhikers and hoppers after dark. There are good resources if you plan a bit ahead...

About Kansas City

Kansas City is a major transportation hub. About 400 flights a day come and go from Kansas City International Airport, where the maximum distance from aircraft to curb is less than 75 feet. KC is one of only five U.S. cities with three intersecting interstate highways (I-70, I-29 and I-35). The city's rail system carries 300 daily freight arrivals and departures.

see you tomorrow, all.

OK, the Four Corners is looking pretty good right now... Wonder if I have any Native American blood in me.

2006 Texas Republican Party Platform On Saturday, June 3, 2006, the Republican Party of Texas adopted their 2006 State Republican Party Platform. Under the first section of their platform, titled Preserving American Freedom, is a plank specific to the Trans-Texas Corridor. It reads: "Trans-Texas Corridor — Because there are issues of confiscation of private land, State and National sovereignty and other similar concerns, we urge the repeal of the Trans-Texas Corridor legislation." [page P-4] Also under the first section of their platform, titled Preserving American Freedom, is a plank addressing the use of eminent domain. It reads: "Eminent Domain — We support limiting the definition of eminent domain to exclude seizing private property for public or private economic development or for increased tax revenues. We urge the Legislature to amend the Texas Property Code to protect the rights of private property owners by notification of their rights under the law with regard to condemnation and to require the condemner to show the just need for the action by petitioning a court of jurisdiction with significant due process safeguards for the land owner. We believe that the taking of property should follow with immediate compensation to the property owner." [page P-3] And, under the first section of their platform, titled Strengthening the Economy of Texas and America, is another new plank addressing tolls. It reads: "Tolls on Existing Roads — We oppose tolls charged for traversing previously toll free roadways and disallow continued tolls except for maintenance on existing toll roads already paid for." [page P-14]   Source:  Click here

I do, lol, but I can't "prove it" (yet at least). Part Wampanoag.

I knew it!

Oh man, its going to be hard to sleep tonight. But thanks for all the info, just the same.

"Exactly. Recall, Kelo v. City of New London (immanent domain), made it much easier for big bro to now take your home away."

Wow. I've been reading back through and ALL of ya'll have done a great job on all the research on this! A couple of observations. With the recent change in emminent domain laws by the SCOTUS (as seen almost nightly on Hannity), it would seem to me that it is now much easier to take any land they want?

Curious to know if in doing research about the railroads/railways, you all came across any information about the Unions. I would be very surprised to learn that this operation is going on without the full support of railroad Teamsters, who, by the way, agreed to support any picketing at the ports or across the country by union members on May 1, 2006, MayDay protests.

[nicmarlo]

speaking for myself, I've only just started getting into reading some information about the corridor and the railroad operation of it, in particular.

What I do remember reading, posted earlier tonight, was only about union members (of the ports) were against the Punta port because they could see the writing on the wall so to speak, about the job losses.

The Union leaders, otoh, are very much in favor of this.

As far as the unions concerning the railroad, I wouldn't doubt that it may be similar feelings, but don't know that as a fact yet.

Definitely a good question and one well-worth looking into for an answer/connection.

[nicmarlo]

You know, every page we turn there's not only nothing to refute/disprove any of our conclusions, there's just an entire 'nother layer of crap.

[WestCoastGal]

"I would be very surprised to learn that this operation is going on without the full support of railroad Teamsters, who, by the way, agreed to support any picketing at the ports"

There will come a day, if this goes to completion, they will be sorry. And that's when the new port in MEXICO becomes operational and puts 75% of Long Beach out of work!

[WestCoastGal]

"See page 4 in the document called "Two Worlds - One Route" in my post #1271. It's at the bottom right-hand corner, above the image it says "KCSR, Tex Mex, TFM: Operating Under Common Control"."

Looks like a divide and conquer plan to me. First Texas then the US. There will be many folks in small towns here that won't know what hit them. Just wait. Someone in the media needs to get on this fast! We have enough crime and disease coming across now, just think how much more will come with the corridor and this railroad direct from MeCHA.

"The Lazaro Cardenas–Kansas City Transportation Corridor..."

More North American Union poison for our ciizens.

[Czar]

Good maps.

Lays it out quite clearly.

[Czar]

""Trans-Texas Corridor — Because there are issues of confiscation of private land, State and National sovereignty and other similar concerns, we urge the repeal of the Trans-Texas Corridor legislation."

Good.

Should have been done away with by blocking initial enactment. Repeal is always much harder.

[nicmarlo]

True. Their feet need to be held to the fire by their constiuents, who HAVE to learn about this, somehow.

[nicmarlo]

More North American Union poison for our citizens.

The octopus has tentacles all about.

[nicmarlo]

Looks like a divide and conquer plan to me.

Doesn't it, though! These plans will do nothing but destroy our country, and then the criminals will wreck havack on what's left.
