Al Gore: Soros should have more influence over American Politics

Al Gore: George Soros Should Have More Influence Over American Politics February 2, 2013 By Daniel Greenfield Apparently controlling the White House and the Foreign Policy of the country via the Soros Money Machine isn’t enough. Not until the entire Senate and Congress bows to the new Emperor of America.

Billionaires influencing American politics is bad. Really bad. It’s a grave threat to Democracy. Unless they’re liberals.

During an appearance with CBS anchor and host Charlie Rose at the 92nd Street Y in New York City on January 29, former Vice President Al Gore said that progressivism cannot compete with “the money situation” that is funding right wing media outlets and messaging firms.

When Rose countered that well-heeled progressives fund liberal causes, Gore cut him off and said that he was making a “false equivalence.” The crowd burst into applause as Gore added that progressive millionaires like George Soros should have more influence in American politics than they presently enjoy.

Rose strikes a small note of honesty, quickly walks it back, while Gore proclaims to audience applause that liberal billionaires should have more influence over American politics.

This is the sad spectacle of the Orwellian left glorying in their own power while pretending that they’re really fighting to restore people power.

There’s nothing that quite says decadent liberalism like the combination of Charlie Rose, the 92nd Street Y and Al Gore. It’s like the elevator music of 90s liberalism. Put all of them together and you get the frank admission from a corrupt Clinton Era pol who almost became president, then invested in the EcoScam and handed over millions of American households to Al Jazeera, that the criminal Nazi collaborating billionaire who funded the left’s takeover of American politics needs to have even more influence.

For the people.

Could he be saying there's a power struggle between Valerie Jarrett and Soros who wants more of hers?

Where desires for any kind of monarchy would take you: very centralized government.

I really think Al Gore lost his mind after his election loss.

I want to know why anyone would pay Al Gore $50 million for a station that has so few viewers it was kicked off of cable. Is it money laundering? his global warming spokesconman payment? Something’s up with that.

Al Gore should have his lips removed and his mouth sewn shut.

Man-Bear Pig Al Gore and The Evil George Soros have been in cahoots fore years trying to profit off the sale of “carbon credits.”

It IS ASTONISHING to me that this thing almost became president. Little Johnny Mac from Arizona looks absolutely brilliant compared to Goreboy.

Those 2 make my top 50 list.

America would be better off if these 50 were in jail.

IMHO, the only influence that Soros should have is, none ! And he should have been dead and buried for at least 67 years !

It's all so upside down. We have pseudo-intellectual elitists with money and power enshrouding themselves in a mantle of populism and social justice, while making villains out of normal hard-working people who don't embrace them as royalty. I can think of few high level democrats I would trust to be kind and caring, but the public has been conditioned to think that they are the ones who ‘care’.

I am truly surprised that Soros is still alive. His people have been thrown out of half a dozen countries for trying to subvert their political processes, establishing Soros as the absolute power behind the throne.

His most recent scheme was to propel a Chinese leader to become their General Party Secretary. The Chinese figured it out and the puppet, his wife and family will likely never be seen again.

Soros seriously wanted to control the government of China!

So I am amazed that they haven’t decided that he needs to be retired. You can’t tell me that the Chinese government is unable to swat Tsetse fly like Soros.

Agreed, and those two con men should be in a federal slammer for that scam.

"Al Gore nearly became a US President and he’s cheerleading for that communist b*****d Soros."

The Gore family fortune was made through a bag man for the Soviet government named Armand Hammer (whose father Julius Hammer set up front groups for the Soviets before our government recognized them).

I’ve been wondering the same thing. What other reason than transfer of moola from Al Jazera / money laundering right in front of our eyes. Remember Beck wanted to buy it and algore nearly had a cow.

This plutocrat says a rich buddy should have more influence. There must be a money angle for AG.

I agree. Tar, feather, and hang that sumofabish Soros and see how many politicians/leftists are influenced by the example.
