Here is a week old WorldNetDaily report that comes under the heading of “What’s going on behind the geopolitical doors?” President Bush has signed a document that is supposed to integrate economic standards between the European Union and America. The document is a commitment yet it was not ratified by the Senate as is called for by the U.S. Constitution for International Treaties and Agreements.
Couple this so-called “Transatlantic Economic Integration” document with all the back door media reports of a “North American Union” (linking Canada, America and Mexico as a national entity), Joe Public has to begin to wonder “What’s the deal?”
This Transatlantic Economic Integration document actually creates a “Transatlantic Economic Council.” It is co-chaired by a Cabinet level American (Alan Hubbard) and an EU “vice-President of the European Commission in charge of enterprise and industry.”
The Transatlantic Economic Council could be an entity as simple as standardizing practices, property rights (e.g. intellectual rights such as Copy Right) and so on. The thing that draws suspicion is the lack of Senate oversight and confirmation. This is eerily comparable to the shadow behind closed doors talks of the North American Union; this also seems to be a President Bush initiative without Senatorial oversight and confirmation.
Clearly all the international nations share geopolitical alliances in one form or another. Yet it is also clear that there are many conflicts of interest between these geopolitical nations, especially as to their view of President Bush. It is the differences that cause a huge confusion for me. There is the appearance that President Bush is attempting to hammer out some sort of United Western Confederation without American Constitutional consent and there is the appearances from which America’s International allies believe President Bush’s geopolitical strategy is unilateral rather than multi-lateral. Unilateralism seems to be a huge point of contention for the EU, Mexico and to varying degrees also with Canada.
This secretive Bush strategy coupled with the EU, Canada and Mexico paradox of cooperation and denunciation is almost like a mystical mystery that Joe Public may not comprehend until it is too late to weigh in. It all seems to be un-American in its extra-Constitutionality (somewhat like a Democratic Party ploy).
So what is going on here?
