APOLOGY?

[STARWISE]

I think it refers to his position on de-criminalizing marijuana:

"PROPOSITION 36

-- What it would do: Proposition 36 will change state law so that most adult offenders who use or possess illegal drugs would receive drug treatment instead of jail time. State funds would be used to operate the drug treatment programs. Excluded from the program would be violent offenders and those who have failed treatment two or more times.

(snip)

-- Major contributors: A handful of individuals account for almost all thev money in this campaign. Financier George Soros, Peter Lewis, CEO of the Progressive Corp. and John Sperling, CEO of the Apollo Group, have contributed their own money for the ``Yes'' side, raising nearly 10 times as much as the ``No'' side, which received contributions from developer A.G. Spanos and the California Narcotic Officers Association PAC."

Yes, Soros is in the forefront of drug legalization, I believe he has been involved in most every major legislative action towards that end, the fact that his operation is on a drug infested island leaves him open for all types of speculation, and given his proselytizing for drugs this type of vituperation is deserved.

ohhhh, that is a dark one!

Good find, starwise! Thank you for that; I hadn't known.

[null and void]

The only thing I'd be tempted to ad is at the very end where it says:

"What has it gotten us?

A divided country and an emboldened enemy."

I would add:

"And then you have the nerve to blame US for the divisiveness!!!"

Superb Post, johnqueuepiblic!

Them Dem'crats are just sadder than a buncha legless Ethiopians watching the last chocolate doughnut rollin' down a sand dune!

Git-R-Dun!

Jack.

[johnqueuepublic]

legless ethiopians.......now that is a rich analogy....do they have Kripsy Kremes there?

[johnqueuepublic]

Just like those ethiopians, the democrats got no legs to stand on.

"Soros is in the forefront of drug legalization, I believe he has been involved in most every major legislative action towards that end, the fact that his operation is on a drug infested island leaves him open for all types of speculation, and given his proselytizing for drugs this type of vituperation is deserved."

Yes, that is the first thought that occurred to me. Advocates for drug legalization could make hidden contributions (investments?) to Soros and his various political committees and never be detected.
