"So much for Obama's early claim that he was going to clean up the "mess" President Bush left with our allies and make friends with the world. One amigo muscling another out of a trade alliance isn't friendly."

When Obama said he wanted to make friends with the world, he didn't mean to include our actual friends. More like he wanted to make all of our enemies like us by bowing to them.

North American Union Moves Closer After Trilateral Summit
http://www.thenewamerican.com/world-mainmenu-26/north-america-mainmenu-36/11408-north-american-union-moves-closer-after-trilateral-summit


While the plot to “integrate” North America was once dismissed by some uninformed skeptics as a “conspiracy theory,” developments in recent years have shown conclusively that it is neither a conspiracy nor a theory. In fact, the process is now going on largely in the open.

Last year, for instance, Obama and Harper signed the “Beyond the Border” agreement. Without consulting the U.S. Congress, the highly controversial plan seeks to form a continental “perimeter” with “biometric” tracking of citizens while diminishing the role of the American and Canadian border. After this week's meeting, Obama also promised to keep pushing amnesty for illegal immigrants.

“Anyone who thinks the globalist initiative to integrate North America on the model of the European Union is dead or beyond any hope of revival is badly mistaken,” noted respected author Jerome Corsi, who has played a key role in exposing the scheme. In an article published after the most recent meeting, Corsi blasted the efforts to erect a “North American Union” and singled out the Council on Foreign Relations’ Robert Pastor for his oversized role in advancing the plot.

Following the latest summit, critics of the integration schemes renewed their demand that Congress rein in the administration and force it to obey the Constitution. But considering lawmakers’ poor track record of holding rogue executive branch officials accountable, analysts believe it would take a massive national outcry to even get any sort of proper investigation — let alone stop the plan in its tracks.

"Explicitly framing his response in light of Obama's refusal to green-light the Keystone XL Pipeline that would carry Alberta crude to Gulf Coast refineries, Harper cited "the necessity of diversifying our energy export markets."

"We cannot be, as a country, where really our one and in many cases almost only partner could say no to our energy products. We just cannot be in that kind of position.""

Looks like he is drawing a line in the sand. Will be interesting to see what the US does when Canada starts selling their oil at a premium to China. Anyone have any idea how substantially that would impact prices here?

The purpose of Keystone XL is so Canada can sell their oil in China.

Obama is for whatever he thinks is best for Obama. Everyone else should just take it because he is Obama.

Stupid, ignorant or evil
The result is always evil but the intent is not always evil. Not that it makes much difference in the long run.

Don't let reason get in the way of stupid people. They don't like that.
