Critical thinking: Evaluating the Mainstream Media

Posted by Joy Bischoff under: Constitution in Peril .

Americans are being snookered and most of us don’t even know it. To see how this is happening and how we can be better informed, let’s look at something called the Transatlantic Policy Network.

A recent headline of the Deseret News read:

Bennett touts trans-Atlantic trade plan

The article began, WASHINGTON — Sen. Bob Bennett has presented the European Commission with a plan to help the United States and the European Union break down regulations that make it harder for either side to trade products with the other.

Bennett, a Utah Republican, is chairman of the Transatlantic Policy Network, an organization dedicated to strengthening the relationship between the United States and Europe. Members of the network came up with the plan and will bring it back to their respective home governments for consideration.

“The focus is not on tariff barriers, which you normally think of when you talk about free trade. The focus is on regulatory problems,” Bennett said. “We are talking about ways in which you can get coherence in regulatory regimes on both sides of the Atlantic.”

The goal is to have a “Transatlantic Market” in place by 2015, and the article makes the Transatlantic Market sound reasonable and good.

BUT THERE IS SOMETHING SUSPICIOUS GOING ON HERE. It is simple to do an online search to get a different point of view.

In a World Net Daily article we learn that the Transatlantic Economic Council appears to be following a plan written by a world government advocate in 1939 and that the Transatlantic Economic Council is tasked with creating the Transatlantic Common Market regulatory infrastructure. The infrastructure would not require congressional approval, like a new free-trade agreement would.

Bennett confirmed that a proposed initiative would allow the Transatlantic Economic Council to integrate and harmonize administrative rules and regulations between the U.S. and the EU “in a very quiet way,” without introducing a new free trade agreement to Congress.
The article also states, ” Writing in the Fall 2007 issue of the Streit Council journal “Freedom and Union,” World Bank economist Domenec Ruiz Devesa openly acknowledged that “transatlantic economic integration, though important in itself, is not the end.”

“As understood by Jean Monnet,” he continued, “economic integration must and will lead to political integration, since an integrated market requires common institutions producing common rules to govern it.”

It all sounds like a move toward a one world government, doesn’t it? Hang on to your freedoms and our sovereignty, America. Someone it trying to rob you blind.

Note: Bennett rarely reveals his true colors as he helps implement the Globalist agenda. He is very good at deceiving his Utah constituents.

The gloves have come off. It’s amazing how much the globalists have stopped caring about how much we see of their plans lately. The agenda is accelerating and we are very fast coming into a one world government. What is really strange is that there are still some people who don’t believe it even though they are no longer hiding it.

Joy said she read a book by the CFR that showed how to put together a new world order. It said to get trade agreements with a European union then an American one and then an Asian union and after that put them all together. Looks like this will be a part of the putting together angle.

Just in case people skim this article I wanted to copy the part that bothers me the most. This is treasonous stuff folks:

Bennett confirmed that a proposed initiative would allow the Transatlantic Economic Council to integrate and harmonize administrative rules and regulations between the U.S. and the EU “in a very quiet way,” without introducing a new free trade agreement to Congress.

That can’t be legal.

When you become arrogant enough to think you know better than everyone else including the constitution, you don’t care if something is legal or not.

Ya think?! Saddened, I am also saddened by the illegal things going on in our nation.

Sometimes I almost wish I wasn’t learning all the things I’m learning here. This is sad but I guess it is the forerunner for the political organization that will become known as the beast so I shouldn’t get too shook up over it.
