Your sounces from George Soros organizations is really sad.
Those who don’t like Hunter resent the fact that he is a Viet nam war vet and his son a Marine whith three tours in
Iraq and Afgan.
The resenters are either anti war or arn’t man enough to serve themselves.

Oh please, get over your idol worship of Hunter, he is a man and is therefore as prone to sin as anyone. The links I provided gave reliable sources for their documentation, here are the first 10:

1 House Armed Services Committee Website, U.S. House of Representatives, http://armedservices.house.gov/ and http://armedservices.house.gov/oversight_plan.shtml (Exhibit 1).

George Soros runs this? Who knew? ROTFLMAO!

2 Almanac of American Politics, National Journal, 2006 (Exhibit 2).

3 Tom Hamburger, Walter F. Rouche Jr. and Richard Simon, The Nation; California’s ‘Big 6': Masters of the New Lobbying Game, Los Angeles Times, August 5, 2006 (Exhibit 3).

4 Hark Hosenball, Jamie Reno and Evan Thomas, D.C. Fraud Probe Heats Up, Newsweek, June 5, 2006 (Exhibit 4).<

5 Cunningham Pleads Guilty, Resigns From Congress, San Diego Union Tribune, November 28, 2005 (Exhibit 5).

7 John Marelius, GOP’s Hunter Will Run for Presidency in 2008, San Diego Union- Tribune, October 31, 2006 (Exhibit 6).

8 Roxana Tiron, Hunter is ‘Duke’s’ Friend ‘Till the End, The Hill, March 7, 2006 (Exhibit 7).

It is great that he is a Vet and that his son is in the Marines, I commend and thank them for their service. That however, does not excuse his behavior or his choice of "friends". As far as me being anti-war, you are dead wrong on that one. As an older woman, I am not eligible for the military, but I do my part...I work for an R&D firm that develops life support equipment that keeps our soldiers on the ground and our pilots in the air safe, I work with soldiers every single day. The only resentment I feel towards Hunter is his strongarming of the Pentagon to support equipment that they neither need or want to benefit his donors and that wastes valuable funding that could be put towards needed equipment that could save lives in the field. Yes...that pisses me off. He's an arrogant grandstander and the pure idol worship of him I have seen on this forum is just so over the top it is sickening.
