I find it hilarious that the wingnuts are dissing George Soros, a self-made man who had to hide his identity from the Nazis in WWII Hungary,

"Soros was thirteen years old in March 1944 when Nazi Germany took military control over Hungary.[15] Soros worked for the Jewish Council,[8] which had been established during the Nazi occupation of Hungary to forcibly carry out Nazi and Hungarian government anti-Jewish measures. Soros later described this time to writer Michael Lewis:

The Jewish Council asked the little kids to hand out the deportation notices. I was told to go to the Jewish Council. And there I was given these small slips of paper...It said report to the rabbi seminary at 9 a.m....And I was given this list of names. I took this piece of paper to my father. He instantly recognized it. This was a list of Hungarian Jewish lawyers. He said, "You deliver the slips of paper and tell the people that if they report they will be deported.[16]

To avoid his son's being apprehended by the Nazis, Soros's father paid a Ministry of Agriculture employee to have Soros spend the summer of 1944 living with him and posing as the godson. Young Soros had to hide his Jewishness even as the official was overseeing the confiscation of Jewish property.[17]

In the following year, Soros survived the battle of Budapest in which Soviet and German forces fought house-to-house through the city. Soros first traded currencies and jewelry during the Hungarian hyperinflation of 1945–1946.

Soros emigrated to England in 1947 and graduated from the London School of Economics in 1952. While a student of the philosopher Karl Popper, Soros worked as a railway porter and as a waiter. A university tutor requested aid for Soros, and he received 40 pounds from a Quaker charity.[18] He eventually secured an entry-level position with London merchant bank Singer & Friedlander." (Wiki)

whilst doing the anal Remora bit with the Kochsucker kids, who were born with platinum spoons in their mouths, and never had to go hungary a day in their John Birch rightard pampered lives.

More proof that rightwingnuts, deep down inside, long to suck the asses of the heriditary right in hopes that something will trickle down on them.

Wow Source Watch seems like a very credible non partisan site.

I mean an article with 6 sources (5 of which are left wing Blogs)

and 3 external links to Media Matters and Huffington Post......


I guess since it is on the Net it must be true.


And if anyone wants a laugh, take a look at how "Source Watch" handles Dan Rather......http://www.sourcewatch.org/index.php?title=Dan_Rather



They ignore that Rathers Lawsuit was dismissed, and imply there really is a question....No bias there at all.
