Conservatives Need to Stop The Bilderberg Conspiracy Theory Nonsense
By: Gregg Hilton
Gov. Rick Perry (R-TX) spoke to the 2007 Bilderberg Conference about energy security and policies which resulted in his state being responsible for 37% of all private sector job growth in America. The Governor is not a traitor, he is not controlled by the Bilderbergers, and has done nothing to jeopardize America’s sovereignty.
The three day annual meeting of the Bilderberg Group is now being held in St. Moritz, Switzerland. Today’s Alex Jones radio program denounced the gathering for attempting to destroy America’s sovereignty and plotting to create a single global currency.
Similar to most accusations made by Jones, the claims have no merit and there is no evidence to support them. Since 1945 the world has had a single reserve currency, and it is the American dollar.
An article today on Infowars.com claims Bill Clinton “is a prime example of a candidate selected and run by Bilderberg. Bilderberg is also responsible for selecting British Prime Ministers Tony Blair and David Cameron.”
It goes on to say Gov. Rick Perry (R-TX):
“is another pawn. . . Veteran Bilderberg sleuth Jim Tucker wrote last week about Perry’s likely entry into the 2012 field, pointing out that he may be Bilderberg’s ‘Ace in the Hole’ . . . Perry keeps pushing himself as a Bilderberg wild card. . . Bilderberg, true to form, wants the U.S. recession to continue throughout 2012 and for oil prices to remain high and increase further.”
This is complete nonsense and it makes conservatives appear foolish. I sent four messages to Mary Borrego yesterday when she said “George Bush is a traitor!!!!!” and went on to praise Ron Paul who wants America to give up its veto power in the UN Security Council. As I told her, the Bilderberg Group is not an advocacy organization and does not take official positions on any issue. They have never reached a conclusion on any subject, nor have they attempted to do so.
In 57 years they have never issued a policy statement or resolution. They have never taken a vote on any issue. The guests are both liberals and conservatives, and every gathering features debates. In 2004, there was a debate between then Sen. John Edwards (D-NC) and Ralph Reed of the Christian Coalition. No one accused them of working together.
Bilderberg primarily serves as a networking group for the well connected. The motivation in forming the organization in 1954 was to stop anti-American sentiments in Europe.
Most of the nonsense surrounding Bilderberg comes from the John Birch Society, Alex Jones, Infowars, Rep. Ron Paul (R-TX) and other radical libertarians. Cuban leader Fidel Castro agrees with their conspiracy claims. An episode of Jesse Ventura’s TV program “Conspiracy Theory” was devoted to the Bilderberg Group.
George W. Bush, UK Prime Minister David Cameron of the Conservative Party, former Prime Ministers Margaret Thatcher and Tony Blair, French President Nicolas Sarkozy, German Chancellor Angela Merkel, Donald Rumsfeld, Dick Cheney, Condoleezza Rice and Richard Perle are not traitors. They did not participate in any plot to steal America’s sovereignty. Gov. Rick Perry (R-TX) attended a 2007 Bilderberg Conference and Rep. Ron Paul (R-TX) said he should be investigated for a criminal violation of the Logan Act which prevents our foreign policy from being undermined. Congressman Paul said Perry’s attendance was “A sign that he’s involved in the international conspiracy.” Other comments about the Bilderberg Conference include:
● Ann Liber of Prosper, Texas said Perry “Gets his marching orders from the Bilderbergers. He is a huge globalist and supports the North American Union (NAU).” Not only does the Governor disagree with her, but a NAU has never existed and no lawmaker has ever proposed it.
● Jeffrey Wimmer of Biloxi, Mississippi says “Gov. Perry has issues with conservatives like myself . .I’m very wary of guys the Bilderbergers pull into their New World Order circle.”
● Deb Stickley of Lexington, Kentucky: “They are developing a one world government. Don’t let anyone kid you on this one.”
● Ted Day of Tenino, Washington believes the Bilderbergers “are the true enemy, the rest are diversions.”
● Libertarian Mark Hamilton of Clifton, Virginia says “These meetings are where the billionaires purchase politicians.”
● Sally Linderman of Washington, D.C. says “They are meeting to totally collapse world economies and create a new currency under the New World Order.”
● Caroline Cowan Conger believes “They are about control, greed, power, and America’s breakdown as the country as we knew and loved.”
● Torey Dawn Hodges of Las Vegas is the only person I agreed with: “I think it’s another boondoggle conference that select people attend. Do I think it’s some nefarious conspiracy-heck no. I think the New World Order people have built this strange case around central bankers, Jews, the Council of Foreign Relations, Jews, Bilderberg, Jews, the Federal Reserve, Jews, etc. They don’t come out and say Jews, but start talking with them and Israel always emerges as a central planner of the New World Order. Seriously, I think Bilderberg is an event. It’s an intellectual exchange of ideas; likely a lot of stupid ideas. I don’t think the group has much influence.”
Congressman Paul is again seeking the GOP presidential nomination but continues to say there is little difference between Republicans and Democrats. In a 2009 interview the lawmaker said:
“The people who surround Obama or Bush generally come from the same philosophic viewpoint and they have their organizations – the Trilateral Commission, the Council on Foreign Relations and the Bilderbergers, and they’ve been around a long time. My biggest concern is what they preach: Keynesian economics and interventionism and world planning.”
These organizations do not pick presidents or other world leaders, they had nothing to with the creation of the European Union or any military action, and they have never called for a New World Order or a global currency.
They are similar to numerous think tanks, and the only difference is that the attendees are high profile. The Council on Foreign Relations and the Trilateral Commission have both opened their proceedings to public scrutiny, maintain websites and have long listed their members.
If the Bilderberg Group is trying to establish a new currency or a one world government, then for 57 years they have been spectacular failures.
Conservatives Need to Stop The Bilderberg Conspiracy Theory Nonsense
Make no mistake about it, Rick Perry is NOT perfect, but quite frankly, I don’t know anyone that is.
I took Rick Perry to task on an issue a while back, and he stood his ground. Perry and I were in direct disagreement on a matter, and to this day I still disagree with him on that particular matter, but he stood by his decision and that is something I like, something that I respect greatly. Rick Perry doesn’t back down if he feels he is RIGHT!
On Friday, June 10, 2011 I had what is now assumed to be a *former reader* pretty much rake me over the coals for not buying into her MOONBAT theory about Rick Perry, and for not accepting her *proof* that Rick Perry was the devil incarnate.
It just so happened that her *proof* was nothing more than the same BS from Alex Jones and Prison Planet that inspired Gregg Hilton to write his post as seen above. That using of Alex Jones as a source is a lot like using Snopes as a source, and claiming it’s the Gospel.
I don’t have time for Paulinistas, Alex Jones BOTS or any other associated morons that espouse these totally unfounded conspiracy theories.
Rick Perry may not be perfect, but if he runs for President I am going to support him all the way! Anyone that doesn’t like it, or can’t accept or tolerate it, can hit the little X up at the top and leave, no hard feelings, just leave. And you can take this little fact to the bank, your comments about Bilderberg and Rick Perry will NOT be seen on THIS blog.
I’m no big fan of Governor Good Hair, but if he runs, I’ll support him too.
But Fred, you a Builderberger? Who’da thunk it? 😀
Governor Rick Perry reminds me of one of the ALAMO DEFENDERS way back in 1835.
He knows what “molon labe” is.
I like that he jogs in the morning with a .380 pistol in his shorts.
I like it that he is a Texas A&M Graduate.
I like it that he was an Air Force Pilot.
I like it that he will stand and deliver his message against anybody.
I like it that he isn’t a “mealy mouth, like Clinton and the definition of what “is” is.
I like it that he has mentioned “seceding” from the OBAMA UNION.
So, if he decides to run, I will place my check upon his name on the ballot.
I take this right of ours, to vote extremely seriously, as I trained, studied, and served in Our Armed Forces to protect and defend our USA rights and freedoms.
And as a disabled vet with shrapnel still within me, and an irascible old fart, I will defend our Constitution to my last breath.
THEREFORE, I will place my precious vote that I fought for…for Rick Perry, Gov of TEXAS…for President of the United States of America.
Is there anything is the above declaration that needs further explanation?
If so…contact me…
The thought to be *former reader* isn’t going to get the support that she sought I believe… 😛
Fred-
I’m impressed. The Bilderberg? Good analysis. I dig it. Ron Paul provides spark to a lot of fuses by touching on a few well known “hot buttons.” Then, he’s got you for the rest of his spiel. He’ll pipe you right down the gangway if you’re not careful.
Perry is okay…….probably a lot better administrator than most have given credit. He is infinitely more business savvy than Obama. I also think he would be better at “rounding up” conservatives than, say, Mitt. Newt seems to have shot himself in the foot. It’s still a little early to tell, but Perry could be a candidate for the short list. There would be some anti-Texas sentiment. A lot of resentment would be from California because of losing jobs to Texas. Perry and Texas have done some things right, but California needs to do a little introspective research. They are taxing themselves out of existence. They are also a big drain on tax dollars I send to Washington every year. Does California do anything for the USA? Could we give them to Easter Island, or someone out there? I guess we would have to learn to get by without Hollywood, huh? Do we need UC-Berkley? Too bad the Reagan boys didn’t get more of their ole man in them.
Just having fun. Good post.
Ron — There’s always that *other* option…
Perry could be the President of The Republic of Texas! 😛
What if there actually were a Bilderberg conspiracy (or any other conspiracy for that matter)? Would that make our work any harder, any easier, or any different?
We need to quit worrying about the mules and start loading the wagon.
Keep your powder dry
Listen, here’s the deal:
The so-called “Bilderbergers” have been meeting for over 57 years, in order to “take over the world.”
If they were possessed of a molecule of the power and influence credited, they would have already been in control of our very thoughts ten years ago.
Somehow, this phrase pops into my mind: “Two Hells Angels can keep a secret if one is dead.”
Now, substitute your favorite word(s) for “Hells Angels” and you’ll have a Fundamental Truism.
Yeah, those Bilderbergers. They’re also responsible for the bad taco I got a couple weeks ago from the breakfast truck that made me feel sick.
BZ
I agree with BZ on this one; I was into the whole Bilderbergers conspiracy about 15 years ago and if they did have the power the conspiracy theorists claim they do this would have happened years ago.
As far as Rick Perry goes, if he does run I will give him a serious look, the rest of the field in unimpressive to say the least.
Viva The Republic of Texas! Would be better than another Obama term.
Alex Jones et al are certifable nut jobs… I, myself, have never heard anyone from the JBS, or pre 1998 Libertarians say anything other than that about them. But, I guess that it takes all kinds as they say.
I’m still liking the Colonel myself. But will he run? If not, in all probability I’d back Perry. But, time will tell…
Otherwise, it will again be a write in of Bluto and Texas Fred!
