Penn and Teller should do a BS show about Bohemian Grove and Denver Airport.

I think that show is really hit and miss, for every good point they make, theres another one that really isn't. I didn't think they did a very good job debunking PETA.

The problem with conspriacy fandom and culture is that a lot of people dont liek to seperate fact from fiction. Its kind of like taking widely believed hidden truths, revealed truths, and also piling on total contrivences, wishful thinking, and hearsay. I mean the Denver Airport one, its good for comedy factor but dear goodness.

When you become a public person you forfeit your right to privacy. I as citizen and employer reserve the right (and is also my duty) to know everything about my employe and how he/she is running my country. If this person represents for example good trustworthy Cristian I expect from him/her to behave accordingly in his/hers public and private life.
And BG IMO is not the place for this person to be.

No, I just don't feel that it's any of my business what they do on their own private time. Needless to say, I am nont a hypocrite like the members of this forum who feel the government should stay out of THEIR private lives, but then seek to intrude into the private lives of government members.
Nobody is watching me, because I am not paranoid like you

I mean't elected officials. When you voted for example Bush you voted his image. You voted a man who is strong, honest, patriotic leader with high moral standards. A straight meat and potato kind a guy. This kind of person does not need to indulge himsef in perverse sexual or other kind of suspicious activities. He is what is.

we have the right to privacy.
we are the government.
watch your argument fall apart.
what you are describing as government is not democratic, but rather, authoritarian.
the key to democracy is transparency.
we SHOULD care about the president going for a bike ride, but we shouldn't care if he runs around naked in the woods doing pagan ceremonies which include 'mock' or 'REAL' human sacrifice.
if you were a judge, there would NEVER be a search warrant issued. you would assume the criminals have a 'right to privacy', while the bad, nasty general populace is a THREAT to the 'american way'.

your current president has been accused of more crimes than carter has pills. his father was head of the secret police for an uncomfortably long period of time. his grandfather financed the nazis. there was a secret nazi network established by the OSS to allow thousands of nazi scientists into the country. MKultra. FOIA. JFK.

Why are you changing the subject? This has NOTHING to do with the discussion that Government officials still have the right to their privacy, and can attend events such as at the Bohemian Grove without having to disclose their actions to the public, or anyone for that matter.
