Says who? "Common Sense for Drug Policy?" That's who runs "drugwarfacts.org."
How did I know, before I even searched, that I would be able to link this group to George Soros?
As it turns out, "Common Sense for Drug Policy" has been funded by Soros' Open Society Institute.
The President of "Common Sense for Drug Policy" has this to say about Soros:
"My impression of Soros: extremely smart guy," says Kevin Zeese, a leading drug reform campaigner. "He can look at situations and be very helpful in figuring out strategies that make sense." When Zeese was a staffer at the Washington-based Drug Policy Foundation (DPF), which was, before Lindesmith, the leading pro-decriminalization advocacy group in the country, he sent Soros a grant proposal asking him to support lobbying and other advocacy activities. Soros invited Zeese to breakfast and confessed he didn't know enough about the policy issues to feel comfortable funding advocacy per se. But if Zeese was willing to tackle projects such as needle exchange and AIDS prevention--hands-on treatment as opposed to efforts to change laws--Soros was in. Zeese later moved on to form his own group, Common Sense for Drug Policy, which combines advocacy work with support for service-oriented programs. Last year Soros gave the organization $125,000, a quarter of its $500,000 budget. - September 20, 1999You can even find a link to "Common Sense for Drug Policy" right on Soros' own website: soros.org
You might want to ask yourself why the very same person, George Soros, who supports America's enemies, and does everything he can to make the USA lose the war on terror, is at the same time doing everything he can to make us lose the war on drugs too.
You might want to rethink making common cause with a pesron like George Soros, and spreading around Soros propaganda from Soros-funded orgs.
