- Tangeuray, on 12/22/2007, -12/+60CFR runs this country's foreign policy. Get used to it and the New World Order.
- headt0thebunker, on 12/22/2007, -7/+40Maybe its because Bush/Cheyne know something about our history the rest of us don't.....Like maybe.....we aren't going to have a history anymore....
As in the U.S. as we know has ceased to exist.....Wake the hell up America. - inactive, on 12/22/2007, -6/+27when did they ever comply with any law? whats the big shock here?
- bossm4n, on 12/22/2007, -3/+19FTA: ""It is not quite as bad as you think," the journal's general editor Edward Keefer was quoted as saying. "We have two print volumes ready to go. The books are overdue from the printer, but we will try to release them before the end of the year."
The article itself contradicts the headline. - inactive, on 12/22/2007, -5/+21But they're above the law, so why should they comply with it?
- Frostman3D, on 12/22/2007, -1/+12The Council on Foreign Relations is a group of "leaders" that want the entire world to be ruled by one ruler. They want to establish a one world government. Members of government and the media are involved.
- openj, on 12/22/2007, -3/+13When in the Course of human Events, it becomes necessary for one People to dissolve the Political Bands which have connected them with another and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature's God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.
When you're tired of it, end it. You have the right. You have the responsibility. You have the duty. You have the tools, but only if you'll use them. - allatti2d, on 12/22/2007, -2/+11bossm4n -
Please continue reading:
"I don’t believe there is any direct connection between the Bush White House and the failure to publish," he wrote.... "But I think it’s fair to say that this is part of a larger pattern of Administration disdain for legal requirements to disclose government records," he added. - manfrin, on 12/22/2007, -2/+11http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Council_on_Foreign_Re ...
- PhilLesh69, on 12/22/2007, -2/+10Wow, you hold onto the beliefs handed to you without much question.
Yeah, it's just a conspiracy theory. You will not google "Council On Foreign Relations" or "Trilateral Commission". You don't understand that there is a think tank called "The Project for a New American Century".
Keep the faith, tattertech. Stay faithful to the dysfunctional party politics, and never align yourself with the citizens. It's better that way. - frsrblch, on 12/22/2007, -1/+8Except they won't be watching you to take care of you, they'll be watching you to keep you in line.
- Pherdnut, on 12/22/2007, -1/+7RTFS. There are much bigger fish to fry. Go listen to Kucinich's impeachment proposal. It's quite good.
- ScoobyG, on 12/22/2007, -1/+7Did any of you idiots actually read the article? We're not talking about transcripts from the current administration's policies. We're talking about events that took place in the 70's. It's not at all what the title suggests.
God I hate Bush and his cronies as much as the next guy (probably more) but there are more than enough real scandals out there. No need to make up new ones. - nkassi, on 12/22/2007, -0/+6This is so ridiculous. It has nothing to do with current policy but it goes to show how crappy the administrations management skills are. Important Vacant positions in departments are crippling those departments. Vacant diplomatic positions can't be helping our image either. This is just a joke. If the current scandals weren't enough, add to that the destruction of the governments departments and management hierarchy.
This is just like Bushes Oil companies. Going to ***** because of crappy management. - chsbrgr, on 12/22/2007, -1/+6Ron Paul has never done anything illegal, unethical, or immoral. He is incapable of any wrongdoing, past, present or future. Get with the program, the very survival of humanity depends on it.
- inactive, on 12/22/2007, -2/+7This sounds like a chuck norris joke.
- Burrito, on 12/22/2007, -0/+5Can you elaborate for those of us not in the know?
- bjornski, on 12/22/2007, -0/+4"Who controls the past controls the future,
Who controls the present controls the past" - bjornski, on 12/22/2007, -1/+5"V for Vendetta" was alright. But some of them you should check out are "1984" and "Children of Men". Toss in "Brave New World", "Fahrenheit 451", and "Soylent Green" for good measure.
Those are the roads we're heading down. - PhilLesh69, on 12/22/2007, -0/+4So anything he has to say is voided.
I get your point.
You want to avoid discussion, or avoid acknowledging another side's view, so you pick any reason to disqualify them.
Way to go champ. You can continue believing what you believe.
Have fun with that. - arplayer2k, on 12/22/2007, -0/+4I'm not going to harp on the details except for....
I am pretty sure at the rate we are going, and where the elections will ultimately end up (in another extremist's hands) we are HISTORY. I'm moving to Canada as soon as I have finished my college, not because of my lack of love for the country, but my loss of faith in the executive, judicial, and legislative branches of our government. BASICALLY OUR GOVERNMENT AS A WHOLE. After watching V for Vendetta, and imaging ten to twenty years down the road, it just doesn't look good to me. - HimThatSpeaks, on 12/22/2007, -2/+6More of the same. There should be a Digg category "Bush Ripping America a New One, Daily!"
- relaxeder, on 04/17/2009, -4/+7Bush and Cheney are *****.
- allatti2d, on 12/22/2007, -0/+3I agree in one sense, ScoobyG, but if you read the entire article you will see the meat of it in context, which doesn't necessarily have to do with the submitter's statement. It's still worrisome that not only is the U.S. behind in it mandated recording of history, but also that the B.A. is being ultra-sluggish with it as well.
Bush kept saying "history will judge me" -- perhaps he's putting it off for as long as possible so that memories get foggy when his history is finally written. Luckily there are enough books published now that tell most of the truth, but there's still all the "secret" crony stuff that needs to get into the open and into the history books ASAP. - inactive, on 12/22/2007, -0/+3The patriot act was passed during midnight. the democrats didnt even read it. they got conned.
- kuzotz, on 12/22/2007, -0/+3lol I'm in University right now, and if another extremnist gets elected next year while I am doing my study abroad in Japan. I'm staying in Japan, and transfering to the host Uni.
- PhilLesh69, on 12/22/2007, -0/+3You are the person we need to stay here and talk to people, educate, inform, don't run away.
If you truly believe there is a problem, like I do, you need to stick around and talk to your friends, talk to everyone you meet, try to rationally explain what you see happening, and within a generation, maybe two, we can reverse this *****.
Seriously. Some people talk about open revolution, and they are wrong. We can fix this ***** if we just wake people up and let them see the reality of a dysfunctional partisan party politics.
Really. The dual party system has devolved, to where only 10 or 20 percent of each party is even involved. We can fix that. We just need to wake people up and let them know the stakes.
http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=7462248898 ... - kuzotz, on 12/22/2007, -0/+2this is how far Ron Paul has gotten. He is the Chuck Norris of US politics.
- ronpaul20008, on 12/22/2007, -3/+5what can we do bro? it's not that we don't care, it's just that we're powerless.
- rarson, on 12/22/2007, -1/+3You've never read the CFR's website, have you? It's not a conspiracy THEORY if the organization itself freely admits what they are doing.
- spyd3rweb, on 12/22/2007, -1/+32nd amendment still exists (for now at least), use it.
- bjornski, on 12/22/2007, -0/+2That was an awesome video. Thanks. And I liked the music, so I'll be looking into that also. Again, thanks.
- 89992, on 12/22/2007, -0/+2Actually, they do give a *****. Just not about you and me.

- inactive, on 12/22/2007, -2/+4 "We are grateful to The Washington Post, The New York Times, Time Magazine and other great publications whose directors have attended our meetings and respected their promises of discretion for almost forty years."
"It would have been impossible for us to develop our plan for the world if we had been subject to the bright lights of publicity during those years. But, the world is now more sophisticated and prepared to march towards a world government. The supranational sovereignty of an intellectual elite and world bankers is surely preferable to the national autodetermination practiced in past centuries."
-David Rockefeller at the Trilateral Commission, 1991
Any Questions? - Sarevok9, on 12/22/2007, -0/+1The right to bear arms is very limited.
In most states it requires training courses, gun locks, and licenses. Felons (of any crime) cannot carry weapons. Nor can people ever affiliated with any gang activity, or involved in ANY violent dispute (ever been questioned by police after a fight breaks out at a bar your at... you can't own a weapon). In my state (Mass) approx 1/20 people I talk to admit to owning a firearm (3 people in my 62 person workplace for the record). So lets just say that any kind of 'revolution' could be stomped into the ground by the state police... they wouldn't even need to call in the military.
So our little coup would make it as far as town hall.... your suggestion is stupid since the president has one of the worlds largest security forces (150 highly trained, heavily armed) protecting him 24/7. If all of america 'stormed' the government, then we could topple it, but right now, behind a keyboard I will say this much, I love freedom, but I'm not N. hale either. - PhilLesh69, on 12/24/2007, -0/+1Yeah, let's just keep our comfort level by assuming Bush is infallible.
You can feel that way for a little bit longer, until the brown people get you.
Watch out for those brown people. But mabe you can blame those "liberals" when we have the reason to attack Iran.
Suck up to your radical political group. - proto, on 12/22/2007, -0/+1er. . . Last time I checked, the State Department didn't make LAW
- PhilLesh69, on 12/24/2007, -0/+1Watch "Children of Men" That presents the ultimate end of a dystopic society.
- inactive, on 12/22/2007, -0/+1Buried because the article used the phrase "one year anniversary" when they meant "first anniversary."
- nimbleprune, on 12/26/2007, -0/+1Most of those books/movies warn against Communism...last time I checked Bush was fairly conservative.(conservative for those people that don't seem to know means not communist/socialist) So you don't have to worry to much about that.
- PhilLesh69, on 12/24/2007, -0/+1But most of them just want to feel comfortable, so they want to deny these ideas.
Yes, our sovereignty is at stake, but that is a scary concept, so we need to avoid this idea at all costs, we need to dismiss it and avoid our cognitive dissonance.
It just can't happen. Our politicians are looking out for our best interests. Sure they are. - spyd3rweb, on 12/23/2007, -0/+1If I had an illegal firearm I sure wouldn't admit it to it to anyone.
- xauckyite, on 12/27/2007, -0/+1The land is been enveloping with a thick darkness….
- Waiting2awake, on 12/22/2007, -0/+1As long as you go back under your rock.
- danske, on 12/22/2007, -0/+1link!
this is a linking site isn't it? - PhilLesh69, on 12/24/2007, -0/+1You are welcome. isn't it great to see things clearly?
- rarson, on 12/22/2007, -2/+3Sorry, but how can you not know about the CFR by now? Are you an American? If not, then I can understand. But every American should know about this organization and it's attempts to erode our national sovereignty for the "good" of globalization (that's what happens when you allow corporations to become members of an organization that has secret meetings to dictate US foreign policy.
I found out about the CFR for myself a while back. Americans need to try harder to educate themselves and stay informed. - gmallard, on 12/22/2007, -0/+1You in Mass should take back your right to own weapons. It is a prerequisite to freedom.
In many homes in the traditional west and south, all family members own weapons.
Someone, somewhere, sometime will have to fight, that is certain. The gov't is out of control.
You, your kids, your grand-kids. Whose blood it is doesn't make much difference. Which do you think is better? -
