If its so damned super secret, how come everyone and their grandmother knows who's attending?

[OK]

Five or ten years ago they denied there was such a thing as Bilderberg, and laughed at anyone who even said the word out loud. Now they are celebrating their 50th anniversary. They quietly put out a guest list now because they were outed by the underground press over the last few years, and the silence was embarassing.

In the last 50 years we have been treated to the UN becoming a de facto world government, the continent of Europe becoming one superstate, North America gradually becoming one economic/political union, etc. etc.

Connect the dots. The world is heading toward becoming one giant copy of the EU. It isn't happening by accident.

The press reported a list of who would be attending the meeting. What kind of details will actually be reported of the meeting itself remains to be seen.

Because someone let their granny know and she told everyone down at the beauty parlor...D.C. is so "small town."
