McCain-Soros: A false trail

The Internet and cable TV have been rife with allegations that George Soros funds John McCain. One of the sources for this claim is a book I co-authored last year called The Shadow Party: How George Soros, Hillary Clinton and Sixties Radicals Seized Control of the Democratic Party.

What we reported was that Soros made a contribution to McCain's political organization when McCain was devising the McCain-Feingold bill. If you oppose that bill as I did and do, that's the end of the story.

Soros is an anti-American radical, who thinks George Bush is responsible for the war on terror and that Israel is the aggressor and genocidal armies like Hamas the victims. On these critical issues of our time, John McCain has absolutely nothing in common with George Soros. For Soros "American supremacy" is the greatest threat for world peace. For McCain, American military supremacy is the greatest guarantor of world peace. That's quite a difference.

If you’ve been here for years, you certainly have retained a closed mind, preferring to toe the party line, refusing to do even minimal research, not that there aren’t posters like that here. Interesting that when I bought a new computer, I didn’t re-register or choose a new user name. Does that mean you have two identities? Just wondering...

"...should we feel better about it because McCain pursues liberal policies purportedly on his own volition? I don't!"

Like you, knowing that McCain is probably not a useful idiot or puppet, but more likely one of the Soros et.al. true believers doesn't make me feel warm and fuzzy about him. In fact, that makes him a lot more dangerous IMO.

I like the way you put that - McCain is either a Useful-idiot or a True-believer.

Folks can debate which is more dangerous, but at least we've established the starting point of the argument. ;-)
