George Bush's answer on getting rid of the USA

I chafe at the dismissal of him based solely on his lack of articulativeness ( is that a word? ) and demeanor. He isn't stupid. But he is an inveterate plutocrat through and through.
 
My point was to demonstrate his double speak. He did NOT answer the question. He evaded the answer by speaking in circles to the point that even he became confused.

If there was not a secret agenda, he would have answered the question with a " yes, I will go on record and say I have no intention of forming a NA Free Trade zone" He didn't...on purpose.


Beyond that..there has been a marked decline in his behavior over the last 10 years. (there is an obvious outline of a receiver under his coat in the back, he may be suffering from something that they can not tell us)

Just like his Daddy:

NAFTA was initially pursued by corporate interest in the United States and Canada supportive of free trade, led by Canadian Prime Minister Brian Mulroney, U.S. President George H. W. Bush, and the Mexican President Carlos Salinas de Gortari. The three countries signed NAFTA in December 1992, subject to ratification by the legislatures of the three countries. There was considerable opposition in all three countries, especially among intellectuals who stated that it was an ill-conceived initiative. In the United States, NAFTA was able to secure passage after Bill Clinton made its passage a major legislative priority in 1993. Since the agreement had been signed by Bush under his fast-track prerogative, Clinton did not alter the original agreement, but complemented it with the aforementioned NAAEC and NAALC. After intense political debate and the negotiation of these side agreements, the U.S. House passed NAFTA by 234-200 (132 Republicans and 102 Democrats voting in favor, 156 Democrats, 43 Republicans, and 1 independent against).[5] and the U.S. Senate passed it by 61-38[6]
 
Actually....the greatest President of all time initiated what was to gradually become NAFTA during his

administration.
 
Read who proposed it and signed it, was not Clinton, was Bush 1.

And Clinton added labor and environmental protections to it.
 
Obviously, neither party should have supported this piece of (&-*&!

The Canadians pretty much brag about this pending "Union" Superhighway....the one Washington laughs about as a joke. Ya think the plan to allow raggedy Mexican trucks onto US highways has anything to do with it?

Notice how they try to laugh off the facts. He's amused...he IS amusing, if he wasn't so dangerous.
 
George Bush proposed it and signed it, the Senate approved it.
 
Ronald Regan had the vision and opened the door.

Long-Standing Support for Free Trade with Mexico. Ronald Reagan first proposed a free trade agreement between the U.S. and Mexico in his 1980 presidential campaign. Since that time, The Heritage Foundation is proud of the role it has played in articulating President Reagan's vision of free trade in Latin America and around the world. Since the mid-1980s, Heritage analysts have been stressing that a free trade agreement with Mexico not only will stimulate economic growth in the U.S., but will make Mexico a more stable and prosperous country. Heritage has published over three dozen studies stressing the benefits of free trade in North America.

It's not just American ports that are fast slipping into foreign ownership; it's highways, too. A Spanish company, Cintra Concesiones de Infraestructuras de Transporte, S.A., has bought the right to operate a tollroad through Texas and collect tolls for the next 50 years.

By now many Texans have heard about the proposed ìNAFTA Superhighway,î which is also referred to as the trans-Texas corridor. What you may not know is the extent to which plans for such a superhighway are moving forward without congressional oversight or media attention.
This superhighway would connect Mexico, the United States, and Canada, cutting a wide swath through the middle of Texas and up through Kansas City. Offshoots would connect the main artery to the west coast, Florida, and northeast. Proponents envision a ten-lane colossus the width of several football fields, with freight and rail lines, fiber-optic cable lines, and oil and natural gas pipelines running alongside.

And this NAFTA Superhighway, as it is called, is just the beginning, the first stage of a long, silent coup aimed at supplanting the sovereign United States with a multinational North American Union.

Its present scope is 4,000 miles long, 1,200 feet wide, with an estimated cost of $183 billion of taxpayer funds.
One of the most striking features of the proposed Super Highway is the plan to do away with our borders, as evidenced by the joint U.S.-Mexico Customs facility already under construction in Kansas City, Missouri.

NAFTA Accountability Bill Draws Bipartisan Support

Long-time labor ally Rep. Marcy Kaptur (D-OH) introduced legislation in the House of Representatives this week that would require the United States to withdraw from the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) if new negotiations do not produce specific, concrete improvements.

“For nearly fourteen years, NAFTA has reneged on its promises, bringing even more poverty and job loss to communities across the continent,†said Kaptur. “I join my colleagues from Maine to California in demanding a new, equitable model for free trade among free peoples.â€

The North American Free Trade Agreement Accountability Act, H.R. 4329, drew support from Democrats and Republicans.

“Since its enactment, NAFTA has failed to deliver the economic success that it initially promised,†said Rep. Duncan Hunter (R-CA). “Our growing trade deficits with Mexico and Canada, and the continued loss of American jobs provide enough evidence to indicate that NAFTA just isn’t working. It is time that we accept this reality and begin renegotiating this trade agreement to better and more fairly serve America’s interests.â€

The bill would require the Executive Branch to certify that certain benchmarks have been met, including gains in U.S. jobs and living standards, increased U.S. domestic manufacturing, stronger health and environmental standards. The bill also sets benchmarks regarding food imports, decreased flow of illegal drugs from Mexico and Canada, and the guarantee of Mexican democracy and human freedoms.
