Paul Krugman: Feel the hate, fear and loathing in New York Paul Krugman NYT Saturday, September 4, 2004
PRINCETON, New Jersey Paul Krugman 'I don't know where George Soros gets his money," one man said. "I don't know where - if it comes from overseas or from drug groups or where it comes from." George Soros, another declared, "wants to spend $75 million defeating George W. Bush because Soros wants to legalize heroin." After all, a third said, Soros "is a self-admitted atheist; he was a Jew who figured out a way to survive the Holocaust."
The suggestion that Soros, who has spent billions promoting democracy around the world, is in the pay of drug cartels came from Dennis Hastert, the speaker of the House of Representatives, whom the Constitution puts two heartbeats from the presidency. After standing by his remarks for several days, Hastert finally claimed that he was talking about how Soros spends his money, not where he gets it.
The claim that Soros's political spending is driven by his desire to legalize heroin came from Newt Gingrich. And the bit about the Holocaust came from Tony Blankley, editorial page editor of The Washington Times, which has become the Bush administration's de facto house organ.
For many months we've been warned by tut-tutting commentators about the evils of irrational "Bush hatred." Pundits eagerly scanned the Democratic convention for the disease; some invented examples when they failed to find it. Then they waited eagerly for outrageous behavior by demonstrators in New York, only to be disappointed again.
There was plenty of hatred in Manhattan, but it was inside, not outside, Madison Square Garden.

Bad Manners: Audience Boos at Bush's Clinton Message
Krugman-the east coast Mark Morford..
George Soros is evil. He's a 21st century money changer, and his table needs to be overturned.
Soros is the poster child for why the so-called "campaign reform" was a bad idea.
It is almost as if the democrats knew he was out there waiting while they duped the Republicans into voting for the terrible McCain-Feingold bill.
very serious issues...
Krugman said "he believes the United States needs a "mega-Watergate" scandal to uncover a far-reaching right-wing conspiracy, going back forty years, to gain control of the U.S. government and roll back civil rights." http://www.nationalreview.com/york/york200409010941.asp

It was a lie, and the AP was caught red-handed!
bwahahahahaha
This is sooooo funny. Who the hell is Paul Klugman anyway??? Andwhy should I care what he thinks?? Was he upset when Soros compared President Bush to Hitler?? I don't think so.
It's pay back time...........BIG TIME!!
Does anyone know if Soros is a US citizen??
The guy is certifiable! L0L
Hey Pauly! We are the party that got the civil rights act passed despite your team!

Yep, I know! And that's just what I sent to Newsmax, Christopher Ruddy et al, just a few minutes ago! Shame on them! This has been out for almost 24 hours now...no excuse for it.
Check this out, Ping
Sure "roll back civil rights" - that's why it was the Republicans in congress who passed the 1964? Civil Rights bill while the dims led by people like Al Gore, Sr. voted against it.
But fortunately for the fortunes of the dims, the MSM got their spin machine into high gear about then.
Not just "almost" I would bet. I have a feeling Soros has been pulling the strings for years now.
That is a great quote.
Race wedge...their desperation play.
