Mr. Soros, whose large-scale currency market interventions have been blamed by some for the 1997 currency crisis in Southeast Asia, has said that his next goal is making sure U.S. President George W. Bush does not win re-election.

Yikes. This is like some weird-ass James Bond film. Only where is Bond to take out Soros?

How many countries is this guy not welcome in these days? Can't we add this country to the list?

Hey George, ever seen "Doctor Zhivago"? Hint, it's cold in them there hills.

If I were into that sort of thing, this Soros guy would make an excellent Anti-Christ type character.
He's rich, powerful, loved by millions of idiots, and no one can really say just what he ever did that was so friggin great as to make him king of the world.

If he ever gets the UN post then I'll be worried.
And I'll have to apologize to the tin-foil hat crowd before he ships me off to the re-education camp in Montana.

Having been introduced to him briefly in 97 or 98, he doesn't have enough Charisma to be the AC.

He comes across as a self-important gas bag.

The company I worked for at the time, John Wiley and Sons was doing his book "Soros on Soros" and he was in the office of the publisher. The publisher was having some trouble with her computer, so I was called up to fix it, upon walking in, he "put on the charm" and said "Hi, I'm George Soros". Non Plussed, I said "Hi" and went about fixing the computer.(IBM Client Access problem if I recall)

Upon getting back downstairs, I asked another IT guy "Who is George Soros and why is he such a douchebag?" and he said "DUDE! YOU MET SOROS!!! YOU KNOW WHO HE IS?" etc.
I responded something about like "A self-important blowhard??"

Soros is a wank. A rich wank, but still a wank.

This guy is in everybody's business! Overthrowing the leader of Georgia, funding millions to try to overthrow Bush, and who knows what else. He needs to spend his time trying to overthrow some Arab/Persian leaders (Syria, Iran, etc) if he wants to help the world. But of course, he doesn't see them as the enemy.

[McGavin999]

This guy is obviously trying to be King of the World. He's financed a proposition here in Arizona to legalize drugs, he's interferring in elections all over the world, and I wouldn't be the least suprised if he isn't behind financing the anti-war movement here in the US.

This is an evil man.

[Cicero]

Well, I'll probably get in trouble for saying this, but I still don't know whom to root for in Georgia. It seems as if there's mud on everyone's hands.

[CzarNicky]

Whenever I see this elitist trash bag Soros I am reminded of those two men in the movie trading places who lost everything after being conned by Eddie Murphy and Dan Aykroyd. May George Soros receive the ultimate humiliation that can happen to any rich man, to lose everything and live to see it.

[Lion in Winter]

He sees the Orthodox Church as his enemy and has been trying to force the Serbs to abandon plans to re-establish religious education in Serbia.... they had it before the commies.

I think he has similar plans for Georgia.

[JennysCool]

Role model.

[Askel5]

And you wonder why there was such a Dramatic dust-up at the Soros Free Society offices in Moscow recently.

[WVNan]

Has anyone pointed out yet that his name is the same forward and backward?

[DLfromthedesert]

He also financed our "Clean Elections" law that helped elect Butch.

[Wilhelm Tell]

Soros sounds pretty much like a corporate state socialist -- I bet he and Mussolini would have been pals.
