I don’t see Gates or Buffet in this camp.

The Koch Bros have been working since the 1960s to shape US culture. I think Soros has been much more limited politically supporting some progressive causes over the last 15 years or so. Where he has been very active politically is donating to undermine communism in Eastern Europe. Fox News loves baselessly blaming him for just about everything though. They’re not quite the same.

move on.org isn’t designed to effect change here in the us?

foxnews slams soros. The Democrats in congress slam the koch brothers. Big, big difference.

you’re right, they’re
not the same. The Koch brothers aren’t unrepentant Nazi collaborators. As a teen, Soros helped the nazis to save himself, which no one can blame him for. the shicking part, was he gave an interview as an adult, and stated that he had no regrets over what he did. that makes him very special.

Jim, read up once in a while, none of this is even remotely true.

none of it is true? so this 60 minutes interview, shows someone pretending to be george soros, admitting to helping the nazis seize property from fellow jews, and feeling no guilt?

have fun with that...
