I'm gonna puke.

quote:

ANGELINA A BABE AMID BRAINIACS By ANGELA MONTEFINISE and SUSAN EDELMAN February 25, 2007 -- The prestigious Council on Foreign Relations is about to get a jolt of sex appeal. The exclusive, Manhattan-based foreign-policy group has decided to admit actress Angelina Jolie, a U.N. goodwill ambassador who has taken more than 30 trips worldwide to advocate for refugees, AIDS orphans and disaster victims. On Friday night, the council's membership accepted Jolie's nomination - meaning she will soon be rubbing elbows with other club members such as Dick Cheney, Condoleezza Rice, Henry Kissinger, Colin Powell and Alan Greenspan. The group requires no academic credentials but looks for members who take part in world affairs. Many current members call Jolie qualified and support her induction. "Bring her on," said Dr. Gordon Adams, an international-affairs professor. "The idea of having Henry Kissinger and Angelina Jolie in the same organization is dazzling." Member Carol Adelman, former head of U.S. foreign-aid programs, said, "It's not like Paris Hilton is being nominated."

LMAO ... yeah, this group has absolutely no power, influence or agenda, just some people trying to socialize. Dick Cheney, Condoleezza Rice, Henry Kissinger, Colin Powell and Alan Greenspan are coincidentally chillin out together. LOL

Imagine if lets say at some point Saddam Hussein, Kim, Castro and some others formed a similar group, I am certain people like you wouldn't look at that the same way as these two groups LOL ... obviously they have an agenda. And they're doing something, just read about CFR annd you'll be quite surprised.

These groups influence political decisions through lobbying, political support, planning. No surprise as result PNAC was successfully realized later. Idea put into action.

I used to find her attractive, but her preachy politics make her ugly.

Right, only some of the most powerful and influential public figures have been part of it... I'm sure it just a club where they get together and beat off like rabid lunatics.

you're right, including many more people who are just ordinary everyday policy wonks but what does that prove? absolutely nothing.

there is a huge disconnect between what the CFR is and represents publicly and what conspiracy nutters want to imagine it is. "imagine" being the operative word.

you notice, i failed to mention "you" in particular, not b/c i'm a nice guy but i wanted to be fair about this.

i have never personally seen you mention the CFR theory, although i am familiar with concept and it's promoters.

i do believe the burden of proof is on you though.

Basically what CFR is made up of mainly experienced and infuential people, former politicians and power moguls, think tanks for most part, who articulate and dissiminate their views on foreign and domestic policy, everything concerning America. Politicians in power use the services and ideas of these groups for their own agenda. Theory put into action. I am not saying CFR is the evil group behind American policy, but groups like CFR havve such strong political influence, made up of brass and experienced politicians that are not overlooked. Thats why PNAC was successfully realized later, because the idea introduced by the think tanks was very well liked and subsequently carried out. Ideas put into action. So therefore CFR is not just a tea party where people come to chillax and talk about the weather.
