Another chink in the armor of our security.

This might make you think the next time an 18 wheeler goes zipping past you.

I don't believe in the conspiracy theory regarding the deliberate establishment of a new "superstate" like the North American Union. Sorry, IMHO it doesn't pass the smell test.

But I DO believe we'll find ourselves with something so close to it there will be no real difference. This will happen as we blindly continue pursuing policies that favor big business. It's no longer true that what's good for General Motors is good for America, and the actions of this administration in that regard are another reason I've become disillusioned with our President. He's pro-business to the point of being blind to any negative consequences.

The news article referenced is a great example of this. Six years after 9/11/01 our borders are sieves and we're now going to allow big rigs from a third world country to have unimpeded access to our nation via the national highway system. No chance of anything/anybody being smuggled in that shouldn't be, right? Too brilliant for words!

There's a statement in the article that puts me in mind of the old joke, "How can you tell when a New Yorker is saying, F*** Y**"? The answer is, "Trust me".

The statement: "It can begin as soon as the inspector general certifies that safety and inspection plans and facilities are sufficient to ensure the Mexican trucks are as safe as U.S. trucks."

"Trust me".
