Why is it that many of the CFR members are socialists, global elitists that care nothing for individual freedoms?
Our foreign policy is run by the CFR and not by our congress, that is why our foreign policy is a wreck. |

Why do most conspiracy theorist ask questions like "Why is that that many <insert personal illuminati de jour> are socialists, global elitists, former nazis, cthulu cultists, masons, templars, reagonites, nixonites, clintonites, etc, etc, etc" without EVER indicating the connection between being one of the above (if it is even true) and somehow ruling the world/taking over the nation/taking over the world/ruling the nation, etc.?

Care to even try to toss out some proof to your assertion? |

Why do our public servants that are supposedly in control of our foreign policy decisions taking marching orders from the CFR and the UN and not themselves? |

Because they don't actually do that? If our government listened to the UN, we wouldn't be doing half the shit we do on a regular basis, and god forbid, our quality of life might actually go even higher. |

We have backed opressive regimes in the past and that was all in the plans of freedom from war and the CFR.
The UN condones socialism and we have aided the UN in toppeling free market governments. |

What?

The UN doesn't condone socialism anymore than it condones capitalism.
And let's not get ahead of ourselves here, the governments we have toppled have been almost unanimously corrupt and torturous. Equating free market with perfect society is very dangerous. Not to mention the fact that just because the UN agrees with us doesn't make it bad. The rest of the world isn't retarded; they do agree with us on things, and that doesn't make it horrible. |

Everyone else is a member. Why aren't you?
To be serious, do you have anything to back the membership up with, or is this just Captain Refused's guided tour of the CFR? |
