America and Americans in the Crosshairs...

Patrick J. Buchanan: Protectionism, Patriotism Make a Comeback

Do we Americans, too, wish to live in a world where unelected transnational bureaucrats speak imperiously to U.S. presidents on what we may and may not do to restore the old self-sufficiency and independence of the United States? Because that is where we are headed – with NAFTA, the World Trade Organization and the North American Union agreed to by Bush, Vicente Fox and Canadian Prime Minister Paul Martin in 2005, under the rubric of “The Security and Prosperity Partnership of North America.” As we see clearly now, from the evolution of the European Coal and Steel Community of half a century ago to the EU of today, free trade is the Trojan horse of global government. A cornucopia of consumer goods is the Faustian bribe that is offered to nations for the surrender of their souls, and to peoples for the surrender of their sovereignty.
