CONGRESS DEBATE BEGINS ON NORTH AMERICAN UNION

Its about time we got this issue to the fore-front and from behind closed doors. Don't allow your Senators and Congressmen tell you their clueless. Ring them up and tell them NO!

Here are the highlights:

A House resolution urging President Bush "not to go forward with the North American Union or the NAFTA Superhighway system" is – according to its sponsor Rep. Virgil Goode, R-Va., in an exclusive WND interview – "also a message to both the executive branch and the legislative branch."

"I am vigorously opposed to the Mexican trucks coming into the country,"

The Virginia congressman said he believes the motivation behind the movement toward North American integration is the anticipated profits the large multinational corporations in each of the three countries expect to make from global trade, especially moving production to China.

"Some really large businesses that get a lot from China would like a NAFTA Superhighway system because it would reduce costs for them to transport containers from China and, as a result, increase their margins," he argued.

"President Bush's position is that we need to carry out NAFTA and we need to have this free flow of goods with Mexico and Canada," Goode explained. "Well, Bush's approach involves a derogation of our sovereignty and it also undermines the security and the safety of the country.

MEXICAN TRUCK PROBLEMS ROLLING

Below are photos on how to tell if a truck is coming out of Mexico.
Look on the side of the door. They are required by law to display both a Department of Transportation number and a Mexican (MX) number. You can see in the photo the Mexican number is located below the DOT number.

The second way to spot a Mexican truck is by the license plates. As you can see in the image they display two license plates. The one on the left is a Mexican license plate. The one on the right is a US license plate.

Keep in mind there may very well be safety hazards, reports are coming in many have bald tires, check out the tires on the bottom photo. More photos are at Diggers Realm, click title. We will keep you posted as we obtain further updates. As it is our highways and roads are already filled with tremendous traffic and the potential for deadly accidents. Can we be absoultly certain, all trucks coming out of Mexico will be thourghly inspected? Were unable to control the border properly and after being made aware of the below memo of vehicles being pushed through, we really have our doubts.

Director Luis Garcia sent out a memorandum in August that all agents screening at the Texas-Mexico border need to start ignoring thorough checks of vehicles and their passengers in order to speed up passage into the United States. Our problems are getting worse in the way of border security. This is why we have no faith in either promises concerning the Mexico border or the Mexican trucking companies.
Heads up to Diggers Realm

SEPTEMBER 1ST SATURDAY MEXICAN TRUCKS ROLL - TEAMSTERS TRY STAND

THANK YOU GOES OUT TO BOTH ILLEGAL PROTEST AND TO DIGGER'S FOR THE HAT-TIP.

Elitist's ruling party coup d'état.
Mexican trucks will start rolling on Saturday September 1st out of Mexico and onto our highways. You need to understand a few things about the Mexican drivers and their trucks. There is no CDL equivalent to ours, drivers appear as young as 16, drive long distances at low wages and ride in top heavy over weighted outdated trucks. More heartache for this country and its security. President Bush is completely deaf, from the ringing in his ears NAFTA's CAFTA. profit, profit, greed.
How many are unable to speak or read English street signs for direction. No problem they will receive only a warning citation.

WASHINGTON - The Teamsters Union said Wednesday it will ask a federal appeals court to block the Bush administration’s plan to allow Mexican trucks to carry cargo anywhere in the United States.

The union said it has been told by officials in the Transportation Department’s Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration that the first Mexican trucks will be coming across the border on Saturday.
Teamsters leaders said they planned to seek an emergency injunction Wednesday from the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in San Francisco. Good luck as it looks like democracy is fading fast.

Lawmakers said their major concern is whether Mexican trucks, often older than U.S. cargo vehicles, and Mexican drivers will be able to meet rigorous U.S. safety standards.

“We do not need 90,000-pound unguided missiles on our highways,” said Rep. Robin Hayes, R-North Carolina.
