She is married to the man that knows more about you than your neighbors do thanks to winblows and you are questioning whether or not she is a Bilderburger.

Only a Bilderburger with Heinz Ketchup is a good Bilderburger.

What do you guys think gets discussed at these meetings?

I think the conspiracy theorists are a bit off on what they think these meetings are about. Sure some of the invitees may have sinister one world agendas, but I think the Bliderberg meetings serve more as a forum where those the sheeple look up to can reveal and discuss the deep and frightening insecurities that confront the world in an open manner, without fearing their comments will appear in the news and shock the consumabots out of their trance.

I have no doubt that peak oil and energy security issues feature prominently in their discussions. The news here at least revealed the topic that Dalton McGuinty, the Ontario Premier, discussed at the last meeting in Ottawa in 2006. Apparently, it was on the power crisis facing Ontario in the future, and the options available to meet this crisis. He came down strongly in favour of nuclear power. If this much was revealed, then there must be more alarming energy related discussions going on at these meetings.

Next thing you know Weird Al Yankovic will be a member of the Trilateral commission. My confidence in my heroes is shaken. How could anyone associated with a firm as friendly and reputable as Microsoft consort with the secret backroom deals of the Bilderbergers? Shocked I tell you, shocked!

Daniel Yergin is a Bilderburger?!

[Baldwin]

I don't think the world's wealthiest and most powerful white people (mostly men) gather for the weekend to play peanuckle and checkers....

If you take the conspiracy route, they could be the precursor to some sort of world parliament ruling body. Or of course, they just argue and nothing of significance gets done...

It's that time of year again not that you'd know from the mainstream media
Like seriously, I can walk down the street and mention Bilderberg to 100 people
and be lucky if one in that hundred doesn't give me a blank stare

What will be discussed at Bilderberg 2007?

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('', 'A')side from the Irak quagmire, energy problems continue to dominate Bilderberger discussions. Oil and natural gas are finite, non-renewable resources. That’s because once used up it cannot be replenished. As the world turns, and as oil and natural gas supplies dwindle while demand soars dramatically, especially with Indian and Chinese booming economies who want all the trinkets and privileges of an American way of life, we, as the Planet, have crossed the midpoint of oil production and discovery. From now on, the only sure thing is that supply will continue to diminish and prices will continue to increase. In these conditions world conflict is a physical certainty. End of oil means end of world’s financial system, something which has already been acknowledged by Wall Street Journal and the Financial Times, two full time members of the Bilderberger inner circle. Goldman Sachs oil report, [another full time member of the Bilderberger elite] published on March 30, 2005 increased the oil price range for the year 2005-6 from $55-$80 per barrel to $55-$105. During 2006 meeting, Bilderbergers have confirmed that their short range price estimate for oil for the 2007-08 continues to hover around US$105-150/barrel. No wonder Jose Barroso, President of the European Commission, announced several months ago during the unveiling of the new European energy policy that the time has come for a “post-industrial age.” To bring the world into the post industrial age, you first need to destroy the world´s economic base and create another Great Depression. When people are poor, they don´t spend money, they don´t travel, and they don´t consume.

As the economic impact sinks in, and as the after effects of Peak Oil become evident in the face of breakdown of civilization, the United States will be forced to challenge Europe, Russia and China for the hegemony of control and the ever depleting hydrocarbon, non-renewable reserves most of which are contained in the Middle East. That will be point number two on the Bilderberg 2007 agenda.

That doesn't seem like a very serious site. But I have spoken to a Bilderberg member who is well aware of Peak oil, but who complained that due to the uncertain timing it was hard to do much about it.

He didn't seem to see it as the end of the world though.

edit: Checking around that page, it seems I have met two Bilderbergers, but only spoken about Peak oil with one of them (the smarter one).

Lunatic fringe or reality...

Man, you can get that close to one and you didn't take em "out"?
Some humanitarian you are!

Are these people any relation to the Illuminati?

Ooh I see my favorite PNAC Neoconservative Richard Perle is in attendance but that means absolutely nothing... go to sleep, go to sleep now my darling...

Is there some unwritten rule where you must have at least one former nazi?

Yeah.
Well.
This is precisely the reason for our soon sudden conversion to our Grandparent's lifestyle, and the reason many of us are moving to southern Oregon and Northern California.

The big BOOR never realizes he is a big boor until someone at the party slaps him silly. When you are used to getting everything you want , one always tends to underestimate reactions.
