I can already see the campaign ads showing Soros. A brief background on how rich he is and all his extreme positions and the money question, "Do you want a President that has been bought by this rich fat cat enacting his view of America into law?"

BTW, more and more Americans are getting educated via various sources and it's always been this high level bickering that has turned off much of the public. So I'm not totally convinced that the pop-culture crowd can carry the dems, which is really what it is boiling down to. Thus Britany's endorsement of Clark. As if she has a clue.

I've stated for years now that the black constituency is beginning to vote republican b/c they too are becoming more informed by-and-large. I think guys like Soros are buying themselves further into a hole. Pop teeny-boppers are not motivated enough to give a crap to this extent to carry an election. All we need is a good stiff rain or snow, and so much for their efforts.

The biggest threat to Bush losing and not getting a massive coattails is cheating and chicanery.

Hilliary doesn't have a prayer of winning a national election. Please, please, please, I hope she does run so that we can finally bury her politically. Perhaps that is what it would take to finally burry the ultra left of the Dems. It would motivate all those who say that they are not going to vote for Bush too.

Another case of someone with more money than brains.

He'll pass a starvig, freezing homeless person on the street without so much as a look, but he is will to let his hate of America's ELECTED President allow him to pis* away his money on some loser like himself.

Soros interest in Vermont is longstanding. He has funded institutes at the University of Vermont and has taken from that university a man who helps run his "charitable" organizations. It is assumed that one reason Dean does not want to open his gubernatorial archive is because it would show a personal connection to Soros.

"Why is more not being said about his obvious attempt to buy influence and corrupt the political landscape with his money? "

Because that IS the political system in the US!

"I've been really quite viciously attacked for doing what I'm doing," Soros told the packed audience. "It's got a rise out of me and that will probably [result] in a rise in the amount of money I'll devote to it." Soros later added, "I'm not a politician. I can admit that it has really frustrated me and angered me."

Since he is a rich liberal who wants to change the tax code, can we apply this tax rate to him and confiscate his wealth ?

Here's hoping you wake and find a good 'ole fashion heart attack, Mr. Soros.

Many are JINO, more importantly, Soros is sometimes called a capitalist; nothing could be further from the truth. He made his money from currency manipulation, a pastime of which Communists have always approved.

>Soros takes a flame thrower to conservatives and then wonders why there's return fire...

>Is he really that stupid?

Maybe. He's the same guy who dumped 5000 S&P futures contracts at the market the day after the 87 crash, thereby selling on the absolute bottom of that decline.

I'm thinkin' that, in his declining years, the one thing this guy wanted was celebrity ... outrageous statements about a sitting president are a sure way to achieve that.

Finally saw him speaking yesterday and was surprised at how unattractive a personna he is. Again, he picked the one topic that would insure media coverage anyway.

Mr. Bush, don't make me angry. You wouldn't like me when I'm angry.


Seriously, I really do hope that Soros dumps every penny he has into his pointless rage. Soros has a history of very bad investment decisions made due to his overactive emotions, maybe the Democratic Party will be his next Russian bonds/Internet stocks debacle? One can only hope Soros follows through with his impetuous threat to try to buy an American election.

Makes one wonder if after seeing his money being spend to fund the MoveOn.org Bush-Hitler ad, does he feel he is getting his money's worth now that it used to demean and trivialize the memory of those who were gassed and shoved into ovens.

But he finds the views of former Vermont Gov. Howard Dean, retired Gen. Wesley Clark and Massachusetts Sen. John Kerry most appealing.

Governor Meltdown, General Smurf and Ketchup Boy. What a combination...

Just damn.

If you want on the list, FReepmail me. This IS a high-volume PING list...

So it's getting a rise out of him. Big deal with his conservative baiting.

I am keen on Dean,

Sounds like "I like Ike".

I think this is more of Georgie's speed ...
