While Paul Morrison was presumably teaching dogs how to live together amicably, Gov. Kathleen Sebelius spent a few days of her summer in June rubbing elbows with the Bilderberg Group in Istanbul, Turkey.

   Bilderburg, a select group of international business leaders, diplomats, thinkers and statesmen is either

   A) a bunch of snooty international leaders who get together to discuss issues of the day, hobknob and presumably eat very, very well. 

   or

   B) A New World Order cabal made up of ... yes, that's right, lizard people who wear human disguises while trying to destroy America and everything good and human about the world. One guy, David Icke, actually believes B is correct.

   In point of fact, Bilderberg is an elite gathering where leaders from business, politics and other spheres get together, by invitation only, once a year in fancy four- and five-star resorts around the world. Bill Clinton, Tony Blair, Nelson Rockefeller, Prince Charles, Don Rumsfeld and others have attended over the years. The group is a mainstay of New World Order-illuminati-lizard people-from-Mars theories.

   Some conservatives are making hay out of it, but it looks pretty harmless, unless someone comes up with a photo of Sebelius cavorting with lizardmen. Sebelius was invited, along with Texas Gov. Rick Perry, to talk about cooperation in government, consensus building, etc.

   "It is a rather prestigious group," said Sebelius spokeswoman Nicole Corcoran. "She was pleased to be invited."
