CFR = Bilderberg

Then this:

"Hagel's name was widely rumoured to be one of those considered by George W. Bush as a potential running mate in the 2000 presidential election. During the Bush administration, Hagel maintained a "traditionally Republican" voting record, receiving "a lifetime rating of 84 percent from the American Conservative Union and consistent A and B grades from the National Taxpayers Union."<16> Among his most notable votes, Hagel:
Voted for the Iraq war
Voted for the Patriot Act
Voted for the 2001 and 2003 tax cuts
Voted against No Child Left Behind
Voted against Bush’s Medicare prescription drug bill
Voted against McCain-Feingold<16>
In August 2004, Hagel acknowledged that he was considering a presidential campaign in 2008."

From wiki - but there is plenty more on the net.
