This Horse Has Much Better Legs Than Barbaro!

It's too bad such a fine animal had to be "put down". But that's what can happen when you breed such a large animal on toothpick legs! Another animal that has much stronger legs is a story that simply won't go away - The North American Union!

WASHINGTON – Participants in a high-level, closed door, three-day conference on the integration of the three North American nations debated whether openness about goals was preferred to a stealthy policy of building infrastructure before a vision of the end result was even laid out to the people of the U.S., Mexico and Canada, according to notes obtained through a Freedom of Information Act request.

Official notes taken on a session on "Border Infrastructure and Continental Prosperity" at the North American Forum in Banff, Canada, last September, reveal the internal debate over continued secrecy.

... Goodbye America! It's been nice living with you thus far; but alas, you're slowly disappearing.
