Interesting piece of blogging about the shadowy and VERY rich George Soros:

www.israpundit.com/2006/?p=2447#more-2447

Does George Soros' monetary contributions and involvement in the democratic party concern you,as democrats, republicans, or independents?

Should it concern the general public interested in how america is governed ?

Not unless we're concerned that national energy policy is governed by Texas oilmen, and not unless we're concerned that the nation has no energy strategy.

Do those two matters concern you as republicans, independents, democrats?

What a hoot. It's like "The Protocols of the Elders of Zion" for neocons.

I was struck by the line "Joe Lieberman– referred to as “Jew Lieberman” at MoveOn.org". Googling "jew lieberman" site:moveon.org returns no results. Looking over the moveon.org site, I couldn't find anything remotely like that. "Lieberman site:moveon.org" returns some 30 results, but "jew site:moveon.org" returns zero.

So just another piece of BS from people who can't tell the truth, maybe don't even recognize it any more. Of a piece with the Cindy Sheehan-related photo of a map of Palestine without Israel, which turned out to be an historical map of pre-1947 borders. It wouldn't surprise me at all if the "jew Lieberman" turned out to be on a placard carried by a white supremacist group, and moveon was showing what we're fighting against.

But back to Ken Lay -- oops, I mean George Soros. Look at how they describe him as "shadowy" -- three times. Buy a thesaurus, guys.

Then there's the "Soros Occupied Government" (wait a minute, I thought the Republicans were in control of the government). This government is run by a -- wait for it -- a "shadow" party. Worse still,

Quote:

Its activities include fundraising, get-out-the-vote drives, political advertising and covert operations (including opposition research...)



Goodness!

You should be ashamed of yourself for posting such drivel.

hmmmm...

Has George Soros also achieved mind control over the usual suspects of extreme MOL liberal-progressive-ism?

Given the general principals of egalitarianism and concern for the common man that the democratic party has embodied for many years, how is it that you guys don't view Georgie as the equivalent of "Dr. Evil" in Austin Powers? What pray tell, is his real agenda? Is it more than enough for you that he just opposes "the chimp", as you lovingly refer to George Bush?

Aren't all those financial types who want to always ramp up their wealth bad for the American people? Think Gordon Gekko, " greed is good" as masterfully played by Michael Douglas. How is George Soros out for us?

Is it all about what politics you are for, rather than substance? Please share.

Innisowen- Nice to see you are back to your normal affectations.

Fiction:

Nice to see that you resort to the usual cliches of the right and recite the customary litany of the brainwashed.

I won't bother to count up the non-sequiturs and irrelevancies in your post above.

Let me ask:

When did wealth become a stigma? When it doesn't suit the purposes of the neocons? When it doesn't add to the coffers of the Republicans? When it thinks independently and doesn't follow the rehearsed responses of the administration?

For every Gordon Gekko type on Wall Street (and I think references to 20 year old movies are quaint but a bit lame), there are dozens of others making a lot of money who support charitable causes that have beneficial consequences both regionally and nationally. You have a problem with that?

As to me and you: it's a shame that you dislike proverbs in foreign languages. That may say something about your education or your insularity. Only you would know.

I know from my study of Latin and of Roman history that the Romans were pretty good at sniffing out politicians who had imperial ambitions and grandiose views of the value of their policies.

Americans looking at the current administration could learn a good few things from Roman history.

By the way, I don't think 43 is a chimp.

I think he's a poorly trained monkey.

One of the classic signs of a conspiracy theorist is when he believes that anyone who disagrees is in fact part of the conspiracy. Hence, "Has George Soros also achieved mind control over the usual suspects of extreme MOL liberal-progressive-ism?."

Soros is another billionaire who knows what is best for us, and is going to buy it.
Kind of like Bloomberg, Lautenberg and Corzine.
Alright, only Bloomberg is technically, along with Soros, a billionaire.

jd-

I think Bloomy is quite less "Dr. Evil" than George Soros.

Unless of course, you were a smoker in NYC.

Is your point the far left wants an extreme left Caesar or caudillo to advance their causes?


Innisowen -

I generally avoid affectations, so sorry I am not into the latin proverbs.

Say, when can we expect your online lecture series on the Peloponnesian wars
being George Bush's fault ?


Foj-

So, have you been working the Illuminati voter angle to make sure you really get out the votes for Bob Menendez in the fall? Any tracking polls on Illuminati voters?

An activist's work is never done....

Fiction:

I'm happy you were able to spell Peloponnesian correctly.

It's too bad you couldn't do so with "compatible" and with your favorite Wayne Newton song.

I'd drop that Wayne Newton reference you made about one of my posts above, by the way.

It was an out of place and kind of stupid reference, since the language you tried to link it to, was NOT German. A small detail...

But who cares about details? Certainly not you.

You see, however, as much as we may like you, we have to have some standards (Even 43 wants some performance standards).

Correct spelling is probably the lowest bar we can set for you, in order to grant credibility to any of your postings.

Absent that, what guarantee is there that you even have your facts straight?

By the way, did you root for the Peloponessian League or the Delian League?

On Hannity & Colmes on June 3, 2004 Washington Times editorial page editor Tony Blankley joined the show's co-host Sean Hannity and other right-wing pundits in attacking financier, philanthropist, and political activist George Soros. Blankley's attacks on Soros included calling Soros a "left-wing crank," "a Jew who figured out a way to survive the Holocaust," "a robber baron," "a pirate capitalist," and "a reckless man."

Do you really think that the Republican Party, dominated as it is by

-Southern bigots like George Allen,

-Christian reconstructionists for whom any religion but their own is anathema, and

-West Texas oilmen with formal membership in SBC or AOG,

would quibble even for a second about bad-mouthing a Jew?

Actually, the GOP is dominated by a handfull of wealthy, old money families such as the Arenbergs who stepped up to the plate after Barry Goldwater got trounced in 1964 and financed the Reagan revolution. This is the true base.

I usually call the religious kooks the "fauxbase". In order to win the presidency and a lot of senate seats they need this group to come out and vote for their candidates and cater to them in rhetoric and to some extent in action.

Bob K:

I agree with you completely. The "Recons" and other religious "space particles" that support 43 and his mad administration are, unfortunately, people who don't care to hear what they need to hear.

They have become inured to hearing only what they want to hear. They will be a victim of anyone who panders to their weak sides.

Of course it's vital that the "recons" and other "values" voters continue to believe that the GOP is really, really -- really! -- really trying hard to pass flag-burning and gay-marriage bills. Because if the cat gets out of the bag that the GOP is working against their financial interests and not serious about their values interests, then they're out of business.

So discussion of this topic needs to be quashed wherever it rears its head.

New York Daily News has an article where Rahm Emmanuel is not very pleased with the say Soros is spreading his money around. Rahm would like to have his hands on it and direct it as he sees fit, and more of it into races George hasn't been keen on. So, I don't know if Soros is running the Democratic Party or that much of anyone is. This makes sense as they have varying positions on key issues, most notably the war. Murphy in CT is having a hard time attracting the Lamont wackos as he can't quite bring him self to embrace retreat. That embrace will be even more difficult if Joe keeps his lead over Lamont or increases it.

Oh, Straw:

Yes, but I guess not educated in the same way as you, apparently.

My Jesuit teachers strongly encouraged me to drop Popular Mechanics from my reading when I was 12 or 13. Nobody saw any value to the articles on Raising Nutria for Fun and Profit.

Apparently the teachers at your vocational school must have felt those articles would do you some good.

cjc,
I read that Daily News article too and I had the same reaction as you. Thank God the Republicans don't have varying positions on the war. We're all behind the president until the bitter end on the war, no matter how many Iraqis have to die for freedom, or how many of our good and brave soldiers have to die. Democrats on the other hand, can't seem to get past their irrational Deranged Bush Syndrome to get behind our president and support freedom at all costs.

I think the GOP will be rewarded in November by voters who understand that we Republicans will never go wobbly. Ultimately, it's more important to stay steadfast and strong. That's what people remember more than they remember who's right and whose wrong.

Fiction:

You persist in confirming negative impressions of your gullibility and lack of accuracy. You probably believe anything you hear. In like manner, you are susceptible to believing erroneous myths and folk tales instead of asking about reality.

We cannot, unfortunately, lower the bar any more for you, even though your jaw is scraping it.
