North American Union a bad idea

I am writing to alert people of a grave danger facing our national sovereignty and our ability to continue our lives as free Americans.

It comes from our own government, both elected and appointed officials, and those behind the scenes who control them.

It's called the North American Union, a political movement plotted by them to create an equivalent to the European Union by gradually passing laws, signing treaties, failing to enforce laws, ultimately to create first an economic and later a political merger of the United States, Canada and Mexico.

It's been in progress since 1990 or earlier. It explains our failure to enforce our immigration laws. The North American Free Trade Agreement and the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade are part of it. The planned Mexican-American superhighway is part of it.

Those engaged in this enterprise ignore security problems created by open borders. They want enough Mexicans in the U.S. to wield political power until each state is forced to succumb to federally imposed regulations, stripping them of their right to enforce their laws.

Talk and news shows advocating amnesty are part of it. George Bush and John Kerry both support it.

Mexicans and Central/South Americans are being driven here by economic hardships created by NAFTA, pricing their commodities off their markets and reducing the demand for labor. Our government makes only half-hearted efforts to stem the swarm. The Mexican Mafia controls border towns in Texas, where crime is rampant, and the streets of many big western cities. Local police are outnumbered and outgunned.

Where is the Border Patrol and immigration enforcement?

NAU is on the way. The U.S. and Canadian dollars and the worthless peso will be scrapped and replaced by the "Namero." Anyone from the three former countries will be allowed to move freely anywhere in North America; border patrols will be things of the past. Drug smugglers won't have to smuggle, but will simply haul it on the superhighway. No one from Mexico or Canada will be deported, so why bother about Panamanians?

Of the politicians who made or are making the run for president, only Tom Tancredo seriously addressed immigration, but even he never mentioned the NAU. All our senators and congressmen secretly have signed on to it.

We seriously need to consider replacing not just the president but every member of the House and Senate with people who will not stand for the NAU and will commit to destroying it. If we don't, it will destroy us.

" This is a real act and if it happens we will be on our way to a one world government. Not only is the NAU a possibility, but we already have the European Union, and soon there will be the African Union and the Asian union. They will all have there own currency and eventually we will have a OWG. There will be no protection over you, it will be you against the government. If you dont believe that this will happen, you better start believing. Pick up your Bible because is prophesied about. "

" For anyone that thinks this is just some nutty conspiracy theory, it's right out in the open on a government web site, it's just not being pushed in the media. I find it funny that the people that buy into the idea of speaking the truth about these things as a "conspiracy theory" also come along with nothing except sarcasm and ignorance instead of useful information. All you need to do is go to www.spp.gov and read about it right from your own fascist government. Why is it a bad idea? Because if this is allowed to happen, United States will no longer be a sovereign nation. Research the EU before you speak in ignorance... Wake up!

" You always have those who try to mark people who tell the truth as "crazy" and "paranoid." Maybe if so-called "rational" americans read a book every now and then, these things wouldn't sound so far-fetched. Since when in history has the merging of sovereign countries been good to the average citizen? This is just history repeating itself. It's the Roman Empire all over again. "

" Hats off too you Mr. Hegland. You brought out one of the best kept and covered up secrets in recent history, and had the guts to do it. This is more than our polititions have had the guts to do. The super highway is not a myth and is currently in the planning stages. It is projected to be a quarter mile wide and stretch from the Mexican Border to the Canadian border, allowing free access into and through the U.S. from these two neighboring countries. As far as forming a North American Union that would include the U.S., Canada and Mexico; the United States Department of Agriculture is already working on that within the livestock industry. As some of you know, Country of Origin Labeling for meat is in the process of being enacted in 2008, to inform consumers of the country that the meat that they feed their families is coming from. After being backed against the wall on this, the USDA under orders from our giant meat packers are trying to get meat classified as a North American product instead of a product of the U.S., thus putting the U.S. consumer in the dark as to where their meat is really coming from.
Those of you who want to put their heads in the sand on this issue have every right to do so. They can also blame their selves when there is no turning back on this issue. "

" Hoo-ray!!! It has been a while since I have seen a truly wacko paranoid letter printed here. Feels just like comin' home.... Mr. Hegland, Mr, Ferguson, JR-please remain calm. I can assure you that no one has any interest in your little slice of America. If you fear that the liberal, commie immigrants are going to swarm your bunker be assured it's a safe bet you probably have more ammo than they do.
yeesh. "

" Funny article

Now: To Baby T - You've made several inacurate statements:
1. US GDP is growing, not "Taking a Sharp Nosedive"
2. The EU is in no way "Overtaking" the United States economically. If anything, its the other way around - Total European GDP @ PPP (purchasing power parity) was higher than the US a few years ago (as it had been for quite some time), now its lower. In the 1980s, West Germany actually overtook the US on a per-capita GDP basis. As of 2007, Germany was at 75% of the US level - you'll see the same trend for most of Western Europe. You're closer for China but China has problems of its own (much, much bigger problems than the US faces). China IS growing much faster than the US now but whether that's sustainable is debatable. Let's all hope for the world's sake that China does overtake the US - its not particularilly fair for the US to have a bigger economy with 1/4th the population - but China overtaking the US is a possibility, not an inevidibility.

" First of all, how did you learn all that about immigration, Texas border towns, Border Control, ICE, secret nation-merging Washingotn DC pacts, and the like all the way from Bismarck, North Dakota? I would love to see your proof for all of you hilarious accusations.

You sir are what normal people like to call a "conspiracy theorist," and I feel sorry for anyone who gets their news from you. I've clearly stumbled upon what must be the worst newspaper in the country to give you as much space as they did. Please stay away from our political process, and I promise if you don't come out of the woods to bother us, we won't go in to bother you. "

" Wow, is this guy drinking the Ron Paul kool-aid, or what? Paul was asked about his belief in this conspiracy theory in a debate and he admitted, on national TV, that he believed in it. Support for Ron Paul immedaitely began to fall away. Wake up and smell the tamales, Mr. Hegland. Your perfect lily white world will be safe for many future generations!! "

" Federal and most State Governments have already implemented the plan to SELL us out. There should be a petition drive to hold all of congress in "contempt." We need to impeach ALL officials including judges who do not believe or practice government by the laws contained in the original U.S. Constitution. We need to demand that all elected or appointed officials start enforcing them. It is time that we use our rights to hold grand juries for the purpose to impeach all of our officials unless they sign an oath to uphold the U.S. Constitution and our Bill of Rights. People wake up - read the Constitution and see how we have been lied to. We need to go back to the rules that we have by our birth rights. "

BabyT wrote on Jan 7, 2008 7:52 AM:

" First of all, the EU didn't have any true third world countries to deal with. That changes ALOT of the policies that you need for a successful union. Next, what is wrong with that idea, if correctly implemented? The US had a good run as the superpower, but now China is surpassing us, as well as the EU. And their GDP is sharply increasing, vs ours taking a nosedive. Our policies need to leave the 1950's behind, we are no longer the world police. The more we try, the more expensive it becomes and the faster other countries leap ahead.

" Before reading this article I noticed there were only 2 sources reporting on it but just below it was a story about Britney Spears sneaking out of the hospital and going home. Britneys story had well over 2000 sources reporting on it.
I'm 61 years old and have lived during the best times in America.I'm glad I am this old because I could not exist under what our proud nation is headed for. Our schools are teaching our off spring to accept any thing thats presented to them. They must think within the box, not up set anyone, and always be politacly correct. Some of these do gooders actually believe there is a way to pick up a turd by the clean end. "
