Liberal BS

While I am by no strech an economist, nor even an American, I have severe doubts about the US being in fiscal trouble. They are unequivically the current world super power for a reason. Stability and for the most part, world trust. Their population are hard working and ingenious. Broke, well maybe in the red, as is my country, but I'd enter into a contract with the US goverment in a heartbeat. As with most goverments, they evaluate purchaces first, as in " how will we pay for this? ". The US people are not fools and know that major expensises must be paid. Any fiscal er-responsibily would just get that current party punted. JMHO as an outsider of the US looking in.

Wbaker, you are welcome here anytime. I feel the same about Canada!:)

Liberal BS

I agree.

Where'd you get that pic for your avatar? I want the large picture.

[CashMan]

I agree liberal bs but hey I was grasping for straws that maybe the U.S. is telling the Iraqis that we need the 1 to 1 change so we can pay our bills. :lmao: and that will help our economy. Just think about this for a second. The U.S. is holding billions of Iraqi dinar and thousands of U.S. individuals also hold dinars. Just the taxes alone from the thousands of individuals will help the tax coffers. Now do you see where I'm coming from. :happy64:

While I only speak my opinion, it should only be obvious to most that what I say is correct. The US has taken a stand against terrorisim and all of the world will benifit. I suspect that the people of the US will profit hansomely from there firm stance.This being safety for its citizens, I myself feel my goverment should back the US in all aspects of this war. I only hope that most goverments will realise the sacrifice the American people have made to provide security for the rest of the world. Again only my humble opinion.

[tmorr37]

I agree.

The new Canadian Prime Minister is a big Bush fan. He met with Bush and Fox not long ago and they set up a committee to work towards erasing the border between US and Canada and setting up monetary and military unification among other things. It's a long term goal and who knows how far it will go but, it's in the works. :wave:

[wbaker6]

Canada is the biggest supporter of the US. And rightfully so. We have the largesat unprotected border in the world. Why, because our men and women will do what ever is nessary to protect this and the US goverment knows this. There resourses can be better spent elsewhere. I personnally feel terrorists should be held until no longer a threat, or forever, but thats just my opinion. I'm a big flag waver of the US because they are are nearest and dearest neighbour. Again JMHO

The Canadian PM isn't any more of a Bush fan, than Bush is a fan of the Canadian PM.
The recent meeting between the two was geared towards increasing the border strength...not 'erasing' it.
As two totally separate countries...Canada and the USA would never amalgamate their finances or armed forces.

[wbaker6]

Pretty sad when you feel the need to bash people for defending your country.

You really think it was border strength?
Take a look at a couple of these articles.

Bash people?.....Because I asked who's butt were you trying to kiss?...Not a chance.
wbaker6......if you classify my question as bashing...then you've obviously never been bashed.
Quit being so sensitive.....and oh yeah...... un-pucker your lips.

I stand by my original post....a few articles in WorldNetDaily covering issues mostly between Mexico and the USA have absolutely nothing to do with the recent meeting between Bush and Harper.

Harper’s first major foreign appearance was at a meeting of the leaders of the NAFTA countries in March in Cancún, Mexico. While the mainstream media obsessed over Harper’s attire, the three governments were on the verge of taking a giant step toward continental integration. Perhaps he dressed like a goof to divert media attention away from the real story.
Over the previous year, government and business leaders from the three countries met privately to organize the agenda for an initiative called the Security and Prosperity Partnership of North America. The goals of the partnership are astonishing: eliminate the border, deregulate the economy, lock Canada’s energy resources into American needs, fashion a unified defence force, and create a new institutional framework for North America.
The Cancun meeting introduced this new institution, the North American Competitiveness Council. This organization will comprise members of the private sector from each country and provide government leaders with recommendations (directives?) on North American competitiveness.

Dr. Pastor’s comments seem to prefigure the June 15, 2006 first meeting of the NACC, even down to describing the membership of his “advisory council” as consisting of ten members from each of the trilateral states. If Dr. Pastor’s roadmap continues to be predictive, we recommend a serious look at his book, "Toward a North American Community," in which he argues for the creation of a European Union-style fully institutionalized North American Union, constituting a super-regional government complete with a court, a parliament, a chief executive, and a new currency described as the “Amero.”
The Council of the Americas website lists five top priorities identified for the U.S. Section of the American Business: Energy Integration; Supply Chain Management/Trade Facilitation/ Customs Reform; Regulatory/ Standards issues -- Harmonization and Sharing of Best Practices; Counterfeiting and Piracy -- “Fake Free North America”; and Private Sector Involvement in Border Security and Infrastructure Projects.
