"...Now President Bush is about to take his country by the hand and make a great leap forward into world government. He has signed on to the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea, or the Law of the Sea Treaty (LOST), which transfers jurisdiction over the Atlantic, Pacific, Indian and Arctic oceans and all the oil and mineral resources they contain, to an International Seabed Authority. This second United Nations would be ceded eternal hegemony over two-thirds of the Earth. It is the greatest U.N. power grab in history and, thanks to George Bush, is about to succeed." Pat Buchanan in his article, George W. Bush, Globalist.

CAFTA: Ron Paul's Comments On How It Passed
In August 2005, your elected representatives passed CAFTA, another of those trade agreements that are good for us if you listen to the powers that be, but happen to come at the expense of middle class workers in this country. The president's press secretary called it a victory for the American people. But most people don't even know it exists, and the ones that do are overwhelmingly opposed to it.
.
In his excellent article, Congressman Paul details some of the behind the scenes machinations that the powers that be resorted to in order to pass this legislation. A Couple of Mr. Paul's quotes in this article:
"Leaving aside the arguments for or against CAFTA itself, the process by which the bill ultimately passed should sicken every American who believes in representative government."
.
"CAFTA was conceived and created by corporate interests, and to claim otherwise is preposterous. The CAFTA vote had nothing to do with the American public, or even trade policy per se. CAFTA was driven by politics and nothing more. Multinational corporations and political globalists share the same goals, namely the centralization of political power in international bodies and the diminution of national sovereignty. What we witnessed last week was not just the selling of votes, but also a sellout of American control over our own trade regulations."
.
...And we keep electing these people who no longer represent us, why? In my own state recently, there was an issue up for vote where our senator acknowledged that the emails and calls were running 20 to 1 against proposed legislation, but that he was going to vote for it anyway.
...Wouldn't things be better if we didn't have career politicians? Term limits might also encourage our representatives in CONgress to make tough choices when necessary. And how about straight up and down votes on all bills, and not sneak them them through in the dark of night by attaching them to some other bill. How may things get passed that most people never even hear about? How many times do we need our CONgressional representatives getting hundreds, and even thousands of pages, of information on a bill just hours before they are supposed to render an intelligent vote on it?
...Would Social Security work better if our elected representatives had to participate in it and give up their own cushy retirement packages?

Trade Union For The Americas: Vicente Fox
"What we propose together, President Bush and myself, it's ALCA, which is a trade union for all of the Americas. And everything was running fluently until Hugo Chavez came. He decided to isolate himself. He decided to combat the idea and destroy the idea." Vicente Fox.
.
Another bombshell on common currencies among North American countries in the interview with Larry King:
King: It's going to be like the euro dollar, you mean?
Fox: Well, that would be long, long term. I think the processes to go first step into is trading agreement. And then further on, a new vision, like we are trying to do with NAFTA.
.
If you click on the link provided above, those comments are down near the very end of the CNN transcript. And you can see and hear it for yourself on YouTube. Here's the link for that.
.
Wouldn't you think that a former head of state saying that he and the president of our country have plans for a trade union for the continent, and hinting at a possible future common currency, would be making the news in the mainstream media? Wouldn't you think that your elected representatives would be interested as well? Why all the silence on these issues in our corporate controlled CONgress and corporate controlled media?
