Before the case of Lynne Stewart, the radical lawyer and now convicted accessory to terrorism, disappears from view, note should be taken of one of her more prominent financial backers.
As National Review recently reported, the Lynne Stewart Defense Committee received a $20,000 gift of support from none other than George Soros, the multi-billionaire who spent upwards of $20 million last year trying to drive President Bush from office.
Soros' Open Society Institute, according to records filed with the IRS, made the donation in order "to conduct a public-education campaign around the broad civil-rights implications of Lynne Stewart's indictment."
In fact, Soros' foundation funded the defense committee's Web site. And an official of the Open Society Institute publicly hailed Stewart the legal mouthpiece of Sheikh Omar Abdel Rahman, whose followers bombed the World Trade Center in 1993 and who was sentenced to life in prison for conspiring to attack other New York landmarks as "a human-rights defender."
Soros has long had a problem understanding terrorism. Last year, his venomous Bush-bashing led him to compare the Abu Ghraib prison-abuse scandal to the 9/11 attacks, adding that the president's "War on Terror converted us from victims into perpetrators."
At some point, the Democratic Party is going to have to explain to the American people how it can in good conscience remain in a political alliance with this gazillionaire crackpot.
Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton, for example, once declared, "We need people like George Soros, who is fearless and willing to step up when it counts."

Hillary should pocket several million in Soros campaign contributions with that verbal BJ.
If he thinks his money can change those facts, he can keep on throwing down a rat hole. I pray someday he may discover that God is real.
she'll go down on any scumbag for a few bucks. no character, no class.
An insight into the depraved, conscienceless mind of a moral relativist. This moron should look around him and see what his kind of ugly, hate-filled thinking has wrought in our culture.
You got that right.
"As National Review recently reported, the Lynne Stewart Defense Committee received a $20,000 gift of support from none other than George Soros, the multi-billionaire who spent upwards of $20 million last year trying to drive President Bush from office. "
Well I hope National Review will keep digging, maybe Soros's was funding more than just Stewart's defense.
that would be several 100 million.
He will find out God is real one minute after he dies.
I look forward to another Clinton interregnum as much as I would anticipate exploratory surgery on my nasal passages.
I stand corrected. LOL.
Only God knows what this godless moron is up to.
In a bio piece on him during the election, perhaps reveiwing his autobiography (?), Soros was quoted as saying he has *messianic* issues and sometimes has seen himself as God.
i give that less than a milla-second!
GODSPEED!
The Democratic National Committee and the Clintons appear to have given Soros access to top secret international financial info from the CIA and State Department. This ultimate insider trading made Soros his billions. In return (like the Chinese military) he channels millions of dollars back into democrat party and the Clintons' coffers.
Soros' phoney "Open Societies" organzations stashed all over the world make it a cinch to evade taxes and money launder all the graft and illegal contributions the Dims can extort.
Soros is probably working hand in hand with Clinton pardonee Mark Rich who himself runs thousands of, uh, "trading companies"---more vehicles to stash illegal cash and to evade taxes.
It is all about making big bucks for the Clintons and their criminal associates.

The Dumbocrat Party official pinup.
I see Soros is delusional, too.
Too, too early in the AM for a semi-nude Bill Clinton.
