that's exactly what I have been asking myself...I certainly would be horrified! But remember, our most populous neighbours are the 200+ muslims in Indonesia!
it does look bi-partisan to me, and that would explain why no one is bothering to explain to the voters how this is going to work. No need to 'sell' something that's already been decided.
I'm operating on the 'where there's smoke, there's fire' principal...
that's exactly why I posted the article!
I mean to write ‘the 200+ MILLION muslims...
perhaps it will modelled upon the EU? I wonder how many SOUTH American nations would eventually join?
I use the ‘Boy who cried wolf’ principle after the first few heart palpitating articles and Coast appearances.
I thought this was a conservative site, which in this day and age does not necessarily mean a GOP site.
Good call
No one in their right mind would consider Jerome Corsi a liberal or a leftist... His conclusions... "We are close to a coup d'etat by the executive branch... a military coup plot against civilian government... not being conducted by the U.S. military. Rather, it is being achieved through men who place commerce and commercial interests at the top of what mankind is about. It is very Hegelian and Marxist, at its center encompassing a belief that people are primarily motivated by economics and materialism, that trade and commerce and having material goods are the primary factors in creating a peaceful world. The policymakers who hold those attitudes have had immense influence on George W. Bush.Marx borrowed (and altered) the Hegelian dialectic. Marxism has *nothing to do* with trade and commerce, apart from an adversarial position to it.
you're right! Marxist it certainly is NOT.
So, let me ask you, what is the author's agenda, or just plain stupid?
Looks like it goes a little beyond the “stop illegal immigration” position, and heads off into Pitchfork Pat country.
EU, when losers unite, you get a big loser.
d@## those materialistic Marxist Republicans!!!
Dems Want You to Take a Hike - The hottest domestic issue of the next two years: TAXES

The hottest domestic political issue of the coming two years will be federal income taxes.
The Democratic Party is for a big tax increase, via repeal of the Bush tax cuts. Its three major presidential candidates are for it (Hillary Clinton and John Edwards voted against the 2003 Bush tax cuts and Barack Obama against their extension). House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid are for it. Bill Clinton is for it because he believes the 2003 Bush tax cuts were “way too big to avoid serious harm.” And the party’s newspaper, the New York Times, is for it, stating that the 2003 tax cuts were “economically unsound” and would “increase the deficit by hundreds of billions of dollars.”
Republicans, arguing that the 2003 tax cuts have helped the economy grow, created jobs, increased federal tax revenues, and thus reduced federal deficits, are mostly against raising tax rates.
Economic indicators show that since the 2003 tax cuts the GDP has grown an inflation-adjusted average of 3.3% a year, and eight million new jobs have been created over 44 consecutive months of job growth. Unemployment has fallen 25%, from 6.1% to 4.5%, with strong declines across all ethnic groups. Productivity growth has expanded 2.8% a year since 2001, outstripping the past three decades’ average. So according to all these economic indices, the 2003 tax cuts have strengthened the American economy.
Thank you for the reply and wise to keep in mind.
