Soros to Host Fundraiser for ‘Independent’ Kansas Senate Candidate
Washington Free Beacon ^ | October 13, 2014 10:09 am

Kansas Senate hopeful Greg Orman insists that he is not beholden to the Democratic Party, but a major Democratic donor is hosting a fundraiser for his campaign to unseat Republican incumbent Sen. Pat Roberts.

Jonathan Soros, son of billionaire Democratic donor George Soros, will host a New York City fundraiser this week for Orman, who is running as an independent candidate, according to an invitation obtained by America Rising.

In addition to the $3.7 million the younger Soros has donated to Democratic candidates, committees, and interest groups, Jonathan is a highly active member of the secretive Democracy Alliance, a hub of Democratic fundraising.

The fundraising consultancy managing the event, the Katz Watson Group, represents a who’s-who of Democratic organizations and individuals, including the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee and the Hillary Clinton for President Exploratory Committee.

Does the average Kansan know who Soros is?

Sounds like the Dems are sweating KS right about now. Must not have the SEIU ballot boxes hidden under the church stairways yet.

This speaks VOLUMES.

Orman is about as independent as my derriere.

There is no choice in this race. It is an easy decision.

Soros makes the choice crystal clear on who to support in this race.

“At least it’s not those evil Koch brothers who represent exploitative corporations along with their knuckle dragging conservative cousins, that are engaging in a fundraising against the rights of the people of Knasas.”

“Soros represents fairness and democracy in action.”

Above is a quote from a lefty here in Austin Texas.

The Kansas media will not report this, so it will only become known if the Roberts camp runs an ad about it. Certainly, many of the Tea Party hold outs know who Soros is, but they are all acting like they are on his side.

Ultimately it is people like Soros who will have contributed the most to the break-down of our society. And when he has worked his magic long enough, it’s his ass that will become exposed. This guy has skated so many times. I suspect his day is coming.

Why is it OK with liberals for Soros to spend the big bucks but liberals have their panties in a twist about Koch brothers? Where is the intellectual honesty? If the big money in politics is bad, then it is bad no matter who is doing the spending, right???

Idiot lefty. Kinda like a handful of Righties who think that one of these America buyers is “on their side” or actually better than the other.

Two sides of the same Destroying America Coin.

“Jonathan Soros, son of billionaire Democratic donor George Soros, will host a New York City fundraiser this week for Orman, who is running as an independent candidate”

Orman is nothing but a Soros stooge. Bought and paid for by Soros.

And ready to sell out his country for Soros.

It is hard to imagine a more comptemptible slime ball.

Surprising. I didn’t see this in the print edition. Kraske and Helling are all in for Orman

A left wingnut billionaire hosting a “fundraiser” in New Yawk for an “independent” politician from Kansas. Hmmmmm. Something doesn’t smell right here. If I didn’t know any better, I’d swear the ‘RATS have some corruption going on here.

Kansas City Star won’t report it but the Wichita rag might. We Kansans are generally pretty well informed. My brother who is a registered Independent is rejecting Orman’s pitch. I just sent this story to him.
