So it's okay if the FSF does it but not anybody else?

  The FSF is the only entity I'd trust with a CLA. Considering they're the stewards of the GPL, if they went evil everything would be FUBAR anyway. So I'd say yeah, the FSF doing it is fine.

    Yep. I signed their CLA way back when under that same logic. I absolutely would not sign a CLA from anyone else.

  Stallman is old. Who will take over when he dies? What when thos people die? Sure you trust them today but do you trust them in 50 years?

    Friendly reminder that Geoffrey Knauth, not RMS, is the president of the FSF.

      Which makes my point.
