George Soros: The Man, The Mind And The Money Behind MoveOn
2007-09-22
From Investor's Business Daily. The article has a recitation of many things we know about George Soros but provides lesser-known facts as well. This man is our enemy, make no mistake about it. I'll carry this article into Sunday for additional commentary.
The Left: The smear ad published against Gen. Petraeus has drawn attention to its sponsor, MoveOn.org. But the fingerprints of the group's chief financial backer, George Soros, were all over it. Who is this man and what is he up to?

To read Soros' own spun story, he's a Jewish survivor of Nazi-occupied Hungary who pulled himself up by his bootstraps, studied economics in England, became a U.S. citizen in 1961 and made a multibillion-dollar fortune as a financier who pioneered hedge funds.

Over the years, Soros has written books giving his philosophical take on global affairs and acquired a reputation as something of a "stateless statesman." He calls himself a philanthropist and has given away $5 billion of his now $8.5 billion fortune through his principal vehicle, the Open Society Institute. The institute, in turn, has passed cash on to far more radical groups, such as MoveOn.org.

#3  mcsegeek1, you'd have to line 'em up... Him and his son Jonathan, who seems to be following in his footsteps (he is currently involved in MoveOn.org to a greater degree tha his father).

Also, an eye woud have to be kept on Robert Soros, Andrea Soros, Alexander Soros, Gregory Soros.

#2  Mr. Soros had better get moving if he wants to ruin Mr. Bush's presidency and frustrate his endeavors.

#1  "The war on terror cannot be won,"

If I were an insensitive boor, or a total wacko right-wing nutjob, I'd say something like "Well Mr. Soros, a well placed round somewhere in the proximity of your head would be a good start."

But I'm not. I swear. Really.
