Apparently they're are readers of Salon that haven't heard of this union. There in lies the problem, this merger has been talked about for more than a year in some places but is just now making it to "main stream" publications. If it's such a great idea drag it into the light and let's discuss it like the free people we are supposed to be.
I wonder at Salons motives by having someone as vile as Corsi weighing in as an opponent of the North American Union.
There are other, more palatable, antagonists of this unification.
