North American Army created without OK by Congress
http://www.worldnetdaily.com/index.php?fa=PAGE.view&pageId=57228

In a ceremony that received virtually no attention in the American media, the United States and Canada signed a military agreement Feb. 14 allowing the armed forces from one nation to support the armed forces of the other nation during a domestic civil emergency, even one that does not involve a cross-border crisis.

The agreement, defined as a Civil Assistance Plan, was not submitted to Congress for approval, nor did Congress pass any law or treaty specifically authorizing this military agreement to combine the operations of the armed forces of the United States and Canada in the event of a wide range of domestic civil disturbances ranging from violent storms, to health epidemics, to civil riots or terrorist attacks.

========================
With our National Guard in Iraq, we could have a problem with national disaster.
How useful, that in case of disaster that, we can call on the Canadians for help...

4. He's been on C-SPAN talking about this, and it's not just wrong from their point of view.
Our government is operating in secret and forming defense pacts with other countries, we ought to be dividing power and localizing government, not globalizing it.

Individual people are worthless to such large organizations, but to the people they know, they are the world. People we know ought to be making decisions about us, or we should be making those decisions ourselves.
