Americans settled in what is now the United States, because they wanted their own communities. You cannot look at the differences in the cultures, even among Anglo-Saxon and British Celtic rooted settlers, in different Colonies, in the same era, and not see that pattern. The idea of some sort of Continental Community, such as this writer postulates, is a negation--not an affirmation--of the American experience.

This sort of lunacy is dooming us to the fate of Rome. The difference being that Rome took a thousand years to go from a dynamic birth to death. Our egalitarian, compulsion driven collectivist conformists will succeed in destroying us in less than half that time, unless people wake up.

Americans and Mexicans are not interchangeable. The only way to equalize them is to impose Communism over both. Hell, you cannot equate New Englanders and Virginians--nor should anyone, who understands traditional American concepts, want to. It was no accident that the framers of our Constitution left questions of local cultural values--including religion and the criminal codes--to the several and separate States.

"See no evil, hear no evil,'' said Webb County Sheriff Rick Flores, who testified before Congress numerous times this year about growing violence in Laredo, the county's largest city, and along the border. "That's the way they want it, and that's what they have done.''

The United States, Canada and Mexico ...as they work to integrate a developing country into a First World economy.

It's called welfare bennies for Mexico and Mexicans...

So the lord and master of free trade and socialism, Pastor, wants the American taxpayer to "give" Mexico $20 billion a year for a decade. NAFTA is only 12 years old and still a failure? How much more, how much more will it take to make this monstrosity of NAFTA into a success? How long will it take to make NAFTA into a success? How many times is NAFTA going to be rewritten?

This jerk wants us to build Mexico's roads. I wonder why Cintra is not good enough for Mexico if it is free without any taxpayers financing them through PPP's. We really don't want to know the answer to that question.

Certainly, we need to pay for the education of Mexico's children. Maybe we can establish a huge education budget just for Mexico. Sarcasm.

Isn't it wonderful that Americans will lower their working wages to Mexico's wages? I feel that we will all look alike. Notice to Todd. I am using the word "feel". How else can I explain all of this socialism of the free traders?

I think Pastor is an idiot, so I'm not sure why you're asking me to defend him. Perhaps you should find one of his supporters?

>>in recent years there has been a massive change in the number and kind of illegals coming north. Including a crimnal element that is causing a deterioration in the quality of life of Americans.<

I demand that you stop profiling! I will report this incident to the ACLU immediately.

>Border security within North America should not hinder trade and tourism and must facilitate legitimate travel and commerce, the three leaders agreed.<

Is there any border security in North America or is this considered an unwarranted expense by this administration?

Sorry to tell you this but those dreams along with national sovereignty went down the toilet many years ago with the formation of the UN.

I think you answered your own question. However, with the U.S. taxpayers donating $20 million a year to Mexico to make NAFTA look good, maybe we can't afford a fence. There is one bright spot to look at if we decrease the wages of Americans to the level of Mexico wages, then maybe we can afford a fence. It should be dirt cheap.

Mexican Toll Roads

I overheard Bush and Rove talking about it the other day. The plan is to build all these roads in Southern Mexico and Central America to connect the proposed trasportation hub there to Mexico's Atlantic Corridor to the toll roads to Laredo to the TTC to the inland port in Dallas, which Ross Perot is going to own. Actually, John Wiley Price will be Perot's minority partner because he is the Lord of South Dallas, where the port will be located.

Also, we need to remember that in addition to buying the Mexican Railroad, Kansas City Southern also bought the Panama Railroad.

After they get thru with all that, they are going to build a new electrical grid that stretches from Canada to Columbia that will be used to ship electricity from all the new hydro -electric dams north to the US

I think the phrase you are looking for is economic intergration, as in market economy. Or, as in an investment driven economy.

Well, for once I agree with you. Pastor is an idiot. However, he has proposed implementing a "Customs office" or some such that would put a tariff on all countries who are not in NAFTA. Do you agree with this as he is pushing for tariffs by having siminars and such events year to indoctrimate the sheeple. Note,I will be watching to see if you become a shill for tariffs. LOL.

No, I have posted plenty about the Houston Toll roads and what a "cash cow" they are. The Harris County Toll Road Authority turned down Cintra this year or didn't you know?
