America’s body politic is suffering from Soroses of the Giver: radical philanthropist George Soros acknowledged he is giving $1 million to the media “watchdog” group, Media Matters for America. Accusing Fox News hosts of using “incendiary rhetoric,” Soros said he wants his donation used “in an effort to more widely publicize the challenge Fox News poses to civil and informed discourse in our democracy.” His son, Alexander Soros, has given $73,800 to Democratic national candidates and political committees in the current election cycle.
Now comes the news (reported in my debut article at Big Hollywood) that Soros is bankrolling a documentary called Better This World that celebrates left-wing terrorists who plotted to napalm Republicans at the 2008 GOP convention in Minnesota. Even worse, you too are bankrolling the film through your taxes.

Some people just need killing. George Soros is one of them.

Now, now. Remember what the Scripture says:
"Dearly beloved, avenge not yourselves, but [rather] give place unto wrath: for it is written, Vengeance [is] mine; I will repay, saith the Lord." Romans 12:19.
In the meantime, vote straight 'R' ticket in these upcoming elections.
It's the way God arranged it for us~ to vote the bums out.

I would love to see Soros lose every dime he has.
Conservative Bob| 10.21.10 @ 1:32PM
Better disgraced and incarcerated for his illegal activities.
We have many as yet unused legal options for dealing with him and his minions.

How about tar and feathering the ugly old bastard? Works for me!

This man is a menace on both sides of the Atlantic. He was recently burbling on about the Roma undesirables in France, an issue which his fans in the EUSSR have now taken a stage further, telling the French whom they have to put up with in their own country.
We expats, from all Western countries, are doing our best to expose him on the blog Ross's Right Angle, and I'd urge other bloggers to do the same.

We must get this word out everywhere. People are outraged by Juan William's firing at NPR. This will cause an avalache of Conservative support.

I'm not sorry that you lost your job-but Im happy that you are rehired by Fox and can now really be honest and learn what real reporting is about. Also, you can now look at both sides and see the patriotism in the Conservative side of the views. You can also take a really good look at Obama's Islamism, he has admitted it to several people, he has studied it and loves to hear its morning sound of prayer, has expressed his loyality when he stated "that he would stand with the Muslims when the political winds get ugly", and his ties to Saudi Arabia has been testified to by witnesses; Rachel Mortecal-Israeli broadcasting monitor for Saudi communications. Not counting his hypocracy towards Christianity and allowing the substitution of it with Islam all-most all of the time-nothing that you don't already know I'm sure-but was too enslaved by the left's fascism.

I tingle like Chris Matthews at the prospect of watching Maura Liasson (or "Funny Face," as
I call her) writhe and spin to defend NPR when next she sits beside Charles Krauthammer on Bret Baier's all star panel. She's an intolerable apologist for the decay of Progressivism, but Juan is an amicable, bright, and reasonable Democrat - a Jackson or Moynihan throwback. He commands great respect and attention.
JF| 10.21.10 @ 1:18PM
The first thing the new congress needs to do is defund NPR. Let Soros pay the entire freight. Save my tax dollars for the military or border patrol, not leftist propaganda and Stalinist blackballing.
Reneeca| 10.21.10 @ 3:41PM
George Soros is no longer hiding in the background but has come out in the open. He is buying 100 political "reporters' for the NPR. $1.8 million for hiring and filling in the local reporters who have been let go due to hard time in the field of Journalism. The New York Times said this should raise some eyebrows because what they are calling "enterprise Journalism" is nothing more than agenda(Leftist) Journalism. Seems like good ole George realizes he has not got the "bank-for-the-buck" with all the multi-millions he has given to 501's to push his agenda. He seems a bit anxious now that he sees his multi- millions spent for naught since the disgust of the public for this administrations policies is obvious and he is in a panic!
Jacques Bakke| 10.21.10 @ 4:47PM
I don't even wear my Sorels (Winter boots) because the sound reminds me of George Soros---I'd rather freeze my feet!
mack| 10.21.10 @ 4:08PM
I agree with Renecca. Soros made a bad investment when he bought the white house and installed his puppet. He's trying to cut his losses now
James Black| 10.21.10 @ 5:21PM
He is selling short. Make it on the way and on the way down while aggregating more dependents and more power. He made money taking the England Central Bank down after he learned how to do it in Thailand and he also learned how good 'the hit' can feel come from power when he was a little Jewish Boy going door to door on those Jewish people in his neighborhood and knowingly telling them that they were being sent to their deaths in concentration camps. Some get a tingle down their leg from the glibness of an attractive man some by exerting power over others and further concentrating your own. I have read that those are two of the primary motivtint factors of murderers and rapists. Really.
NYCMightyRighty| 10.21.10 @ 4:16PM
The media can be bought and sold these days. There is no real journalism from the left anymore.
James Black| 10.21.10 @ 5:11PM
He just wants to get rich and by rich I mean having more power like he once did as a little boy in Hungary over his fellow 'adult' Jews for which - to this day - he still feels no remorse as he gave them notice that they were heading to their deaths.
Grandanne| 10.21.10 @ 10:22PM
We must be thinking of legal ways to get rid of Soros. He has been planning this for many many years and he is in his late 70's. He will try everything he knows to socialize the U.S.
Patriot| 10.22.10 @ 3:05AM
Soros is 80 years old, and the ugly old creep looks much older.
poptoy| 10.22.10 @ 1:00AM
George Soros is a JEW. He was also a Nazi Collaborator during WW II. He helped the Nazi's by turning in his own people who were hiding from the Nazis. May he burn in HELL.
Jeanette | 10.23.10 @ 5:20AM
Do you have any sources for Soros' background? I've tried to find info about where he came from, etc., but a general search only turns up rather fluffly stuff about how brilliant he is, etc. Crap from a spin mill. Saw a clip of him on Charlie Rose, and Soros really didn't seem very brilliant. More like a buy who made a lot of dough and now thinks he can tell other people how to live, though his advice doesn't necessarily apply to himself. I'd really like to find out more facts about him. Seen some stories that say he was raised in the USA, which struck me as odd because he clearly speaks with an accent -- and not from Brooklyn. 'Course, like Howard Hughes, Soros can afford a squad of p.r. flacks to hide his background and keep him out of the press.
Dave| 10.22.10 @ 5:38AM
Soros is a traitor, and absolute piece of garbage!!!
