Soros’s can’t get approved with his NAZI ties.

Good question. Was Rush set up?

It’s unbelieveable to me how this thing played out. Wasn’t it just a few days ago that news broke that Rush was part of a group seeking to buy the Rams? Then, within the past few days, the MSM dutifully reports false quotes from Rush about racial issues, Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton weigh in, and all of a sudden, Rush is deemed unfit to own a football team.

The same NFL that has seen a growing criminal element among its players, and tolerates same, decides that expressed conservative political opinion is “verboten” among its ownership. Approx. 15% of NFL players, according to what I have read, have been or are in trouble with the law. That’s a huge percentage of players who have been arrested for everything from DUI to domestic violence to nightclub brawls/shootings to dog fighting. We are supposed to spend our money and buy tickets to watch these guys play, guys who are definitely not role models for anyone. Yet in the case of team owners, we want to set a very high standard that most people cannot meet, because they want owners who meet a certain standard of political opinion, or of not generating controversy, or some such pablum.

Exactly what are the new standards for NFL owners? Do you have to be liberal, and then everything else is forgiven? Were these standards enforced when all of the other current owners bought their teams?

With his penchant for governing from the shadows by means of pawns in high places, Soros resembles either the Emperor from the Star Wars saga or Blofeld from the James Bond moves.

Either way, we are in for a rough time.

BIG trouble for those who nixed Rush.

FOR EXAMPLE: RICO laws govern conspiracies by “organized individuals” to thwart interstate commerce.

Soros could be in trouble for “conspiring with NFL insiders” to thwart Rush’s ability to earn money from his investment.
