George Soros gives $100M to Human Rights Watch
Yahoo Finance ^ | Nov. 8, 2010 | AP staff News

The financier and major donor to liberal causes said Tuesday that it's become a disadvantage for the group to be primarily funded by Americans because the U.S. has lost the "moral high ground" when it comes to fighting abuses.

he’s running this country right now and it is sick.
The GOP needs to call him out at every chance when the left talks about big money, the rich etc

So that HRW can worry about the people Soros pauperized with currency manipulation to the tune of billions.

What a guy!

Must be nice to be able to throw $100 million to your favorite activist group.

Too bad Soros is a one-world, big-government, totalitarian statist, because that’s what he’s funding.

I hope he has kids and they’re all free-thinking conservatives.

It’s a front to funnel campign money to Democrats. Here’s my question: why isn’t there a cabal of Conservative Financeers to thwart him? Seems that he’s the ONLY one sitting at the United States Political System Poker Table

Soros became a US citizen the same year Barry was born. What bad year for America.

He’s still wanated in Russia for crashing the Rouble. They raided his Moscow offices in November 2005 and arrested everyone there.

Too bad he was here in the States at the time. We don’t have an extradition treaty with the Russian Federation.

Soros masterminded the devaluation of the Rouble from $0.16 in 1998, to $.03 in 2001.

He made billions on the back of the struggling Russian economy and nearly destroyed any chance of post-Soviet recovery.

Now that our economy has been sufficiently weakened, count on this corrupt slug to do the same to the dollar.

Count on it.

Well, there are the Koch brothers who back AFP and other conservative causes and are demonized by the left as a result; but the big money contributors do seem to come primarily from the left.

“Is Human Rights Watch’s Marc Garlasco A Nazi-Obsessed Collector?
Well, yes. But if you’re going to hire pro-Palestinian activists to run your Middle East division, why not throw in an avid collector of Nazi memorabilia (he even wrote a book, see below) to be your military investigator for good measure?

Snark aside, I understand there are people who collect Nazi memorabilia for innocuous reasons, and in Garalasco’s case, his grandfather served seven years in the Nazi military.”http://volokh.com/posts/1252419984.shtml

Human Rights Watch was also the issuer of reports used during Soros backed so called Velvet Revolutions.

Soros is a National Security risk. When is he going to be dealt with? Why does he control the democratic party and the White House? Why do we let him control our currency? Is every word he utters monitored by our NSA, FBI and CIA? Military intelligence?

Isn't about time for Soros to keel over?

He is getting more brazen folks. We are in trouble if this man is allowed to keep up what he is doing.

Elections are too far apart to help I fear.
