George Soros says hell pony up his $7 billion fortune if it could defeat George Bush this November.
Soros has already donated tens of millions to groups like MoveOn.org and left wing "527s to defeat Bush.
But Soros is not the only billionaire who has a passionate hatred for George Bush.
MoveOn recently reported that Peter B. Lewis, chairman of Progressive Corp., has already given 1.5 million to the group.
Lewis is so anxious to help MoveOn he now promises to match the amount contributed to MoveOn by any contributor, 50 cents for each dollar donated upto $20,000.
Progressive (youve seen their TV commercials) is the nation's third largest auto insurer. Mr. Lewis started as a local Cleveland car insurer. Today, his Progressive does about $9 billion in sales.
Then, theres Hollywood billionaire Stephen Bing. He just donated a cool $1 million to MoveOn.
Bing, described by Mother Jones as a "notorious playboy, is best known as a mega-bucks supporter of Bill Clinton and father of actress Liz Hurleys child Damien.

We need to do the same thing to Progressive that we did to MCI when Danny Glover was their spokesman.

And that want us poor activists out in the trenches to lay down our God-given unalienable rights on the altar of so-called 'campaign finance reform'.
They are fascists, plain and simple...and I don't use that word lightly.
Enemies of life and liberty, that's what they are.
To: jmstein7
Politicans with unlimited money do the dumbest things.
They spend tons on commerical after commercial that just anger the public.
The spend tons of dollars on phone banks and automated calling systems that really tick people off.
One reaon Dean lost in Iowa and New Hampshire is that he had thousands of people come into those states and annoy the hell out of lots of voters.
The more Kerry campaigns the fewer votes he will get.
To: jmstein7
Let them waste their money! Dang fools. When will they get a clue...IT'S YOUR MESSAGE, STUPID! They went so far Left, even the Liberals can't stand them.
To: jmstein7
My wish would be for Soros to spend all of his money to defeat GWB and then have GW win big. Then Soros could live like the "working people" and vote for no tax breaks.

They knew what they were doing. It's merely an attempt by the Janus to silence any Third Party from rising. They're the only ones hurt by Campaign Finance Reform. I guess the success of Third parties in recent elections has both sides scared.

Good. Glad that these pigs are rearing their heads. Know thy enemy.
