Congress tells Bush: Back off SPP agenda
WorldNetdaily.com ^ | August 17, 2007 | Jerome R. Corsi

Posted on 08/18/2007 4:45:55 AM PDT by Man50D

Twenty-two members of the U.S. House of Representatives – 21 Republicans and a Democrat – are urging President Bush to back off his North American integration efforts when he attends the third summit meeting on the Security and Prosperity Partnership of North America next week in Montebello, Quebec.

They make it clear that continuing any such agenda at this point would be disregarding growing apprehension in Congress about the plans.

"As you travel to Montebello, Canada later this month for a summit with your Canadian and Mexican counterparts, we want you to be aware of serious and growing concerns in the U.S. Congress about the so-called Security and Prosperity Partnership (SPP) you launched with these nations in 2005," the letter said.

While the letter authors express their support for the president's "desire to promote good relations with our neighbors to the north and south," they are worried about the secretive manner in which SPP is being conducted and concerned it "may actually undermine our security and sovereignty."

"For instance," the letter said, "measures that would make it easier to move goods and people across borders could have the effect of further weakening this country's ability to secure its frontiers and prevent illegal immigration."

The letter also cited documents obtained by Judicial Watch in a Freedom of Information Act Request that suggest, "Such secretiveness seems not to be accidental."

The 21 Representatives who signed the letter are hallucinating the SPP and are just a bunch of conspiracy kooks if we are to believe some Freepers .

I don’t put it past the administration to push One-Worldism. Bush was one of the architects of shamnesty.

History is full of conspiracies. Not theories — real conspiracies. And no Bible-reading and believing Christians fail to see real conspiracies in biblical history (which is an important segment of world history) and prophecy, too. Mr. Rush Limbaugh likes to accuse people who study history and political movements and understand these things, “conspiracy nuts,” but there are conspiracies.

If 21 members of the congress, 20 of them being republicans felt compelled to so warn the president in writing, a document that would go public, it is because that they do understand that conspiracies are common among men in power the world over.

IMHO, President Bush will do all he can to ignore this letter.

He is bound and determined to see the SPP become a reality.

Go to http://spp.gov and read between the lines. Damned scary.

IMHO, second only to the global war on Islamofascism, the Security and Prosperity Partnership of North America (SPP) represents the greatest threat to our country.

Follow this link, download the .pdf file and begin reading on page 23 which is page one of the report.

President Bush is bound and determined to let the illegals overrun our country. Don't take my word for it. Go read the report.

Never understimate the power of denial and the human capacity to rationalize.

This country's founding was partly a result of conspiracies. The Sons of Liberty, Paul Revere and the Minutemen, even the First Continental Congress were conspiracies. Benjamin Franklin, Thomas Jefferson, John Adams, et al. were ALL conspirators working against the Crown, and would have been hanged if caught.

The irony is England had Franklin but let him go!

You are right. The definitive modern book on cospiracies, “The Unseen Hand” by Ralph Apperson, has as its introducing theme: “Events don’t just happen; they are caused.”

One-Worldism is the Bush family business.

Congress tells Bush: Back off SPP agenda

This is a blatantly misleading title. A small minority told Bush this. That's like quoting some liberal moonbat and saying "America says..."

And this is my problem with Corsi... always seems to exaggerate

There are conspiracies--but often-times there are just a lot of people who are in power who want to do some stuff.

They don't have to have any meetings to conspire. They share common goals and routinely work towards them.

Actually I have just described Hillary's "vast right wing conspiracy". What she can't fathom is that someone might pursue an objective because it is the right thing to do and because they share common values. Certainly she would never do that, so she can't imagine anyone else would either.

btw imho the Kennedy Assassination was a bona fide conspiracy between significant elements of the CIA (betrayed by JFK at the Bay of Pigs) and the Mafia (betrayed by JFK when Marcello was kidnapped by the Feds and forcibly removed from the country.) I also believe LBJ and Jay Edgar Hoover both knew in broad terms that the plot was afoot and jointly directed the cover-up after the fact.

Even in that conspiracy there were probably very few actual meetings but rather a general consensus as to how to proceed.

How is it that the letter could only get 22 signatures?

Well whaddya know, Congress did something right for a change. Figures it was mostly Republicans involved though. I couldn’t see too many Democrats doing anything too logical.

The SPP/NAU can’t be allowed to happen. Take a look at the EU, do we really want something like that in our own continent? Hell no.

Good question.

He should titled it: Duncan Hunter and the staunch conservatives in Congress tell Bush to back off....RINOS don’t care.
