IMO, there is a coherent and consistent ideology on his part and it is very frightening.

I met some of the OSI guys when I was in Hungry, we (my class) stopped by Central European University (which he basically founded).

It was a weird group, but in essence, they know one thing clearly, he is nuts.

They talk well of him, but in private, they think he's pretty much lost it with his "messiah complex".

He is also not known for long term thinking, and moves from one cause to another.

The OSI guys (the ones I met) over there, were actually big supporters of Free Market principles and believed that a big government (or activist government or strong centralized government) was an enemy to the beliefs of an "open society".

Bizarre guy, and no one takes his "philosophy" junk seriously, even Paul Krugman, who is nice to him, and usually says positive things about, has also hinted that Soros isn't exactly trustworthy in some writings noting him. Interestling, he held a debate with him once.....and lost.

Whoa...hope you didn't tell them anything important. I wouldn't trust them. Much like the demonRATs, they are probably trained to smile and lie through their teeth.

Some time ago I found an article where he said he would own the USA. Wish I had saved it. I think that was the strategery of his "investment" into the '04 election. Had "it" won, Soros would have owned him.
