Here's a clip from CNN where they discuss a clip of Pres. Bush responding to questions on the latest summit he attended with the heads of state for Canada and Mexico. The question was put forth about the possibility of the meeting really being about the formation of a North American Union, a possibility that the President simply brushed off as 'comical'.
The thing that sickens me a little more than the President's remarks is the sad excuse for reporting by the journalists of CNN, if they can even call themselves journalists anymore. One of CNN's White House Correspondents, Suzanne Malveaux joined in calling the talk of a North American Union simply 'Conspiracy Theory in the Blogosphere'. She goes on to try and discredit the idea that a superhighway is being planned to run from the Mexican border to the Canada border. Don't think it's real? Tell that to the farmers and land owners in southern and western Texas who are on the verge of losing their property in the name of Imminent Domain. Malveaux even mentions the Canadian Prime Minister's comment on standardizing the jellybean (the reason we were given for the heads of states' latest summit meeting) as a viable and believable story. When she can explain to me how with all of our wonderful bureaucracy and useless 'departments', we don't have someone that is capable of standardizing the manufacture of the jellybean, and that it is a job left only to the President, maybe then I will give a little credit to any reporting done by CNN.
