Hi-

Just heard a few minutes ago from Lou Dobbs on CNN, that the North American Union summit is being held now in New Orleans. The meeting is closed to the public and media.

WOW!

NEW ORLEANS, the United States, April 20 (Xinhua) -- U.S. President George W. Bush will join the leaders of neighboring Canada and Mexico here Monday for a high-profile summit focusing on promoting integrated trade and security.

The two-day event, dubbed the "Three Amigos summit," appears to lack a dominating issue, but Bush, Canadian Prime Minister Stephen Harper and Mexican President Felipe Calderon are expected to touch upon broad topics ranging from energy supply to anti-drug measures to border issues.

The annual summit is held under the framework of the so-called Security and Prosperity Partnership (SPP), a trilateral effort launched in March 2005 to smooth out trade and security arrangements in response to new developments in a post-9/11 era.

This would be Bush's fourth and final North American Leaders' Summit because the president, who took office in 2001, has only about nine months to go before his second and last presidential term ends early next year.

In his January State of the Union speech, Bush announced that the annual summit would be held in New Orleans, which is still recovering from the devastation caused by Hurricane Katrina in August 2005.

The three leaders are due to wrap up the summit by holding a press conference later Tuesday.

Last year's summit in Quebec, Canada, drew hundreds of protestors and saw incidents of violence.

Local police are gearing up for any possible protests that may accompany the forth-coming gathering in New Orleans, where more than 30 local, national and international organizations have announced an intention to stage protests.

If George Bush walks in a southwesternly direction at any point of the day, the conspiracy theorists all have a collective swoon because he's facing Mexico and it must mean something.

This is no more significant than if you met with the neighbors on either side of your house to discuss your fence, the mail delivery, lawns, etc.

What are the leaders supposed to do? Ignore each other for their terms in office so that they don't give anyone the idea that there's something going on?

Having a good imagination is a great thing, but in the wrong hands it can be dangerous.

What type of currency are wanting to wager?
The USD will be long gone before 2020, for that matter so will the USA.
If the USA is still here in 2020 you will not recognize it, the world will soon no longer need the USA...........have you seen China lately?
These are my opinions and I am entitled to them.
