a question for Mexicans


do Mexicans know of the plan for a super Mex. port, (on the Pacific side of Mex.) where a super highway will start and go up the middle of Mex., into Texas and straight up and into Canada?

and do the Mex. people know the neo cons plan on "protecting" your southern border?

is all of this OK with you?

(Canadians are waking up to this, but have the Mexicans?)

(heck, most americans don't even know about it)

4. thanks for the article - the article I posted said the neo cons wanted to

get away from unions so will bring things in through Mexico. Fox is a neo con and in on the deal. the elections in Mex. might change all of it if the neo cons don't kill Obrador before the elections or the elections are as rigged as US elections.

5. "FOX is a neo con"? Well, on at least ONE point, he refused to join
the Iraq Attack, being sensitive to questions of sovereignty, as Mexico/cans are, having been subjected to myriad incursions from the north. I'll be researching, but this sounds like something recent from the Jerome CORSI a-hole, the co-author with the swiftbot of "Unfit for Command." I'll be back with results.

9. This wingnut source, Human Events, on CORSI doesn't mention
the superhighway, but hyperventilates about a "North American Union".

I wonder why the Minutemen whom Shrub called wingnuts, and this CORSI wingnut love Shrub so much, if he's doing stuff they absolutely detest?

North American Union Would Trump U.S. Supreme Court
by Jerome R. Corsi
Posted Jun 19, 2006

The Bush Administration is pushing to create a North American Union out of the work on-going in the Department of Commerce under the Security and Prosperity Partnership of North America in the NAFTA office headed by Geri Word. A key part of the plan is to expand the NAFTA tribunals into a North American Union court system that would have supremacy over all U.S. law, even over the U.S. Supreme Court, in any matter related to the trilateral political and economic integration of the United States, Canada and Mexico. ....

Robert Pastor of American University, the vice chairman of the CFR task force report, provided much of the intellectual justification for the formation of the North American Union. He has repeatedly argued for the creation of a North American Union “Permanent Tribunal on Trade and Investment.” Pastor understands that a “permanent court would permit the accumulation of precedent and lay the groundwork for North American business law.” Notice, Pastor says nothing about U.S. business law or the U.S. Supreme Court. In the view of the globalists pushing toward the formation of the North American Union, the U.S. is a partisan nation-state whose limitations of economic protectionism and provincial self-interest are outdated and as such must be transcended, even if the price involves sacrificing U.S. national sovereignty.

When it comes to the question of illegal immigrants, Pastor’s solution is to erase our borders with Mexico and Canada so we can issue North American Union passports to all citizens. In his testimony to the Subcommittee on the Western Hemisphere of the U.S. Senate Foreign Relations Committee on June 9, 2005, Pastor made this exact argument: “Instead of stopping North Americans on the borders, we ought to provide them with a secure, biometric Border Pass that would ease transit across the border like an E-Z pass permits our cars to speed though toll booths.” ....

We wonder if the Bush Administration intends to present the Trilateral Regulatory Cooperative Framework now being constructed by SPP.gov to Congress for review in 2007, or will the administration simply continue along the path of knitting together the new NAU regional governmental structure behind closed doors by executive fiat? Ms. Word affirms that the membership of the various SPP working group committees has not been published. Nor have the many memorandums of understanding and other trilateral agreements created by these SPP working groups been published, not even on the Internet.

Mr. Corsi is the author of several books, including "Unfit for Command: Swift Boat Veterans Speak Out Against John Kerry" (along with John O'Neill), "Black Gold Stranglehold: The Myth of Scarcity and the Politics of Oil" (along with Craig R. Smith), and "Atomic Iran: How the Terrorist Regime Bought the Bomb and American Politicians." He is a frequent guest on the G. Gordon Liddy radio show. He will soon co-author a new book with Jim Gilchrist on the Minuteman Project.

13. I'm saying that anything interpreted through CORSI's filter
would have me doing a whole lot of research on the subject before I would accept his INTERPRETATION of whatever.
