    Soros told Steve Kroft of 60 Minutes that he developed his character as Nazi collaborator in Hungry. He took that learning and became convicted Insider trader, a guy who made 10 billion dollar off the British people through currency speculation, terrorist supporter and Israel hater. After the last election George Soros, met with a group of Mega-rich liberals to ensure that they get to control the country after the 2008 Elections. What they ended up doing is giving $100 Million dollars to key liberal organizations in major battle ground states(see Obama's Liberal Shock Troops ). Here's the scary part--it worked....

    KAISERSLAUTERN, Germany — Department of Defense Dependents Schools-Europe told administrators this week that schools will have to drop the word “American” from their official names. Also, any schools named after a person will have to be called by a moniker more reflective of its location. That means Ramstein American High School will simply be known as Ramstein High School. And David Glasgow Farragut High School in Rota, Spain, will take on the shorter name of Rota High School. The school in southern Spain is named for the U.S. Navy’s first admiral. School administrators were notified of the changes in a...

    Tonight NewsChannel 8 reports on the inflight entertainment you see on United Airlines flights from Chicago, Denver, Los Angeles, and San Francisco to Portland. In the interest of full diclosure, it should first be noted, KGW's network, NBC, is paid to develop United's inflight programming. But now, United admits it's added a 13-minute segment that's not produced by NBC... though it may be difficult to distinguish it. That 13-minute segment is called "Today's Military". It looks a lot like an NBC News program, profiling ten members of the US Military, all over the world... including Oregon National Guardsman Andrew Canfield....

    (English-language translation) The Navy and the Department of Defense "will do all they can" to proceed with a definite closure of the Roosevelt Roads Naval Station in Ceiba in 2005, according to sources with the Armed Services Committee of the [U.S.] House of Representatives and the Pentagon. "Without the Atlantic Fleet Weapons Training Facility operations in Vieques, Roosevelt Roads is not of much value to the Navy. The operations that remain there may be transferred to other bases and the Department of Defense would save money which it may invest in other things, such as the new training system," a...
