The article I posted was a Reuters news article, as an avenue of commenting on these bought-and-paid-for Tea Party wannabes

What has your side posted

Nothing but these cheesy slimy personal attacks, as so many on your side are seemingly only capable of

How does that show independent thinking, mindlessly trying to tear those who have differing opinions down.

Reuters certainly aren't anti-Soros, in fact their editorialising approach would be in harmony. He was shown to be a major funder of numerous NGOs, and other than one big contribution to HRW, appears to have done so with a fair bit of secrecy.

According to disclosure documents from 2007-2009, Soros' Open Society gave grants of $3.5 million to the Tides Center, a San Francisco-based group that acts almost like a clearing house for other donors, directing their contributions to liberal non-profit groups. Among others the Tides Center has partnered with are the Ford Foundation and the Gates Foundation.

Disclosure documents also show Tides, which declined comment, gave Adbusters grants of $185,000 from 2001-2010, including nearly $26,000 between 2007-2009.

So, in this massive sum of 18.5 a year, you insinuate that Soros had foreknowledge of the OWS in what 2009 or 2010? And further insinuate that he intervened to insure OWS got the 26k that was given in the three year timeframe 07-09 from adbusters.

Your lack of concern for fact or anything but falsifications for propaganda purposes is an EPIC FAIL as is everything you scribble out here, it doesn't even pass a casual dee-doo-dee-doo test.

You need to ajust the tinfoil or you wont be beamed up to the home planet.

Ironic that one of richest man in the world is behind this "envy the rich" movement

quote:

Who's behind the Wall Street protests?


NEW YORK (Reuters) - Anti-Wall Street protesters say the rich are getting richer while average Americans suffer, but the group that started it all may have benefited indirectly from the largesse of one of the world's richest men.

There has been much speculation over who is financing the disparate protest, which has spread to cities across America and lasted nearly four weeks. One name that keeps coming up is investor George Soros, who in September debuted in the top 10 list of wealthiest Americans. Conservative critics contend the movement is a Trojan horse for a secret Soros agenda.

Soros and the protesters deny any connection. But Reuters did find indirect financial links between Soros and Adbusters, an anti-capitalist group in Canada which started the protests with an inventive marketing campaign aimed at sparking an Arab Spring type uprising against Wall Street. Moreover, Soros and the protesters share some ideological ground.

...

The Hungarian-American was an early supporter of the 2008 election campaign of Barack Obama, who will seek a second term as president in the November, 2012, election. He has long backed liberal causes - the Open Society Institute, the foreign policy think tank Council on Foreign Relations and Human Rights Watch.

According to disclosure documents from 2007-2009, Soros' Open Society gave grants of $3.5 million to the Tides Center, a San Francisco-based group that acts almost like a clearing house for other donors, directing their contributions to liberal non-profit groups. Among others the Tides Center has partnered with are the Ford Foundation and the Gates Foundation.

Disclosure documents also show Tides, which declined comment, gave Adbusters grants of $185,000 from 2001-2010, including nearly $26,000 between 2007-2009.

I wonder  how Soros intends to profit off of the shit-in-the-park vandals






Is he a predator capitalist?

I did not refer to Reuters as propaganda, so another lame out and out lie in your attempt to derail, so that you can wiggle off the hook, because you have been shown to be nothing more than a goebblist.

Other than that the article said what it said, and it did not say in any way shape or form that Soros is bankrolling THEM.

Hey, you linked it dude, only the drooling imbeciles would believe your vitriolic lies without reading the article.

Sorry, I have an intellectual starchblocker that deals in fact, not extremeist ideologies and fanciful sturmanddrang.

This idiot has no idea what a 1 percenter is. 

Somehow I don't think it is going to help his political image.

Urban Dictionary: 1 percenter

In 1947 the American Motorcycle Association (AMA) organized a motorcycle rally called the Gypsy Tour which ended up overwhelming the small town of Hollister, California.

About 50 arrests were made, mostly for public intoxication, and the AMA said the trouble was caused by the one percent deviant that tarnish the reputation of all motorcycles and motorcyclists.

Outlaw motorcycle clubs then took up the name one percenters. This incident was made famous by the 1953 Marlon Brando film The Wild One.

The Hell's Angels, Bandidos, Pagans, Outlaws and Mongols Motorcycle Clubs all consider themselves to be 1 Percenters.

Not really ironic at all, considering Soros made his money by being a good businessman and a classical capitalist, rather than by lobbying congress to distort markets for financial gain - so he's all for separation of politics and economics like a... capitalist.

So I suspect he'll make profit the same way he always does, by shrewd investment - you know, capitalism.

Well, maybe you don't.

We always suspect of others what we know of ourselves.

Because you are mindlessly trying your usual scams.

You are drawing conclusions from an article that does not support what you are saying.

Again, from the article:

According to disclosure documents from 2007-2009, Soros' Open Society gave grants of $3.5 million to the Tides Center, a San Francisco-based group that acts almost like a clearing house for other donors, directing their contributions to liberal non-profit groups.

Disclosure documents also show Tides, which declined comment, gave Adbusters grants of $185,000 from 2001-2010, including nearly $26,000 between 2007-2009.

Aides to Soros say any connection is tenuous and that Soros has never heard of Adbusters.


In other words, he never directly contributed, the money was given to a foundation that distributed it as they chose.

But don't let that get in the way of your exaggerations and conspiracy theories.

You're well on your way to qualifying for your tin foil hat.
