George Soros and the "Mainstream Media" connections.

The O'Reilly Factor - FOXnews "The Factor has been investigating far-left billionaire George Soros, a man who wants to impose a radical left agenda on America. Soros has set up a complicated political operation designed to do two things - buy influence among some liberal politicians and smear people with whom he disagrees. Most of Soros' political money flows through his 'Open Society Institute,' which has given nearly $20 million to the 'Tides Foundation.' Tides, in turn, has donated millions to the vile propaganda outfit 'Media Matters,' which specializes in distorting comments made by politicians, pundits and media people. 'Media Matters' directly feeds its propaganda to some mainstream media people, including elements at NBC News, columnists Frank Rich and Paul Krugman at the New York Times, columnist Jonathan Alter at Newsweek, and Bill Moyers at PBS. The goal of Soros and other radical financiers is to buy a presidential election. In the past, big business has been accused of doing just that. Now it is the likes of George Soros, an extremist who wants open borders, a one-world foreign policy, legalized drugs, euthanasia, and on and on. This is off-the-chart dangerous, but completely legal under the McCain-Feingold Act. In the weeks to come we'll have more on Soros and his operations, including naming more of the mainstream media who are actively helping him."

O'Reilly: Media Matters and Soros Funding (NewsMax.com) The war of words between Fox News' Bill O'Reilly and the left-wing Web site Media Matters for America has heated up, with O'Reilly accusing the site of lying about funding from Bush-bashing financier George Soros. On April 24, O'Reilly told viewers of "The O'Reilly Factor" that Soros and several other wealthy radicals were helping to fund Media Matters ?- which says it is dedicated to "correcting conservative misinformation" in the U.S. media ?- by donating money to a foundation that in turn contributed to the Web site. Media Matters countered that while Soros' Open Society Institute (OSI) did contribute to the foundation, the Tides foundation, and Tides gave Media Matters more than $1 million in 2005, the OSI funds were specifically earmarked for two other beneficiaries. "Soros has never given money to Media Matters, either directly or through another organization," the Web site stated. On April 26, O'Reilly responded. "The vile Media Matters outfit is denying receiving funding from any of George Soros' outfits," he told viewers. "Well, that is a total lie. As we laid out for you, the smear Web site received more than a million dollars from the Tides Foundation alone in 2005, and just by coincidence, Soros' Open Society Institute donated more than a million dollars to Tides in 2005. Figure it out." Media Matters has featured a number of articles critical of O'Reilly on its Web site.

A Sight for 'Soros' Eyes (Family Research Council Washington Update February 5, 2007)

The same man who said he "chose America as his home because he values freedom and democracy" has likened our country to Nazi Germany. George Soros, the financial backbone of radical liberals like Sen. Ted Kennedy (D-MA), told reporters this weekend that "America needs to follow the policies it has introduced in Germany. We have to go through a certain deNazification process." Despite the fact that these comments were made to the press corps, the media has largely ignored them. Only the New Republic fires back, condemning Soros for comparing President Bush to Hilter. "Characterizing the U.S. under Bush as Nazi...casts a shadow over U.S. politics." Soros has endorsed Sen. Barack Obama (D-IL).), but has also said he could support Hillary Clinton (D-NY). New Republic board member Martin Peretz ends his account of what he calls "The Madness of King George" with tough question for these two presidential candidates. "How," Peretz writes, "without any explanation or apology from [Soros], will you take this man's money?" Additional Resources Tyran-a-Soros

The madness of King George - Jacob Laksin - If putting one's foot in one's mouth were a lucrative enterprise, George Soros would be worth far more than his current $8.5 billion. While bashing the Iraq war for the benefit of reporters at this year's World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland, the Hungarian-born Soros, a Holocaust survivor, unburdened himself of the view that the Nazis were once more in charge. Only now they were running the United States. "America needs to follow the policies it has introduced in Germany," Soros explained. "We have to go through a certain de-Nazification process." Lest there be doubts that Soros was actually likening his adoptive country to the Third Reich and the Bush administration to the Nazi nomenklatura, a Soros spokesman, Michael Vachon, moved quickly to dispel them. "There is nothing unpatriotic about demanding accountability from the president," he said of Soros's appeal for de-Nazification

O'Reilly Factor? ROFLMAO

George Soros

George Soros is Pure Evil By Michael Illions Any success on the part of the Democrats in the upcoming election can be traced to one man. The DNC, John Kerry and the Presidency of the United States itself will be beholden to this man. If you connect the dots and fill in the blanks, if you follow the cash and the funding of the major Liberal 527 groups, you come to George Soros. Soros, the Hungarian born billionaire, was responsible for the Asian Financial Crisis in 1997 and was dubbed the "man who broke the bank of England" in 1992. Further controversial business deals, it was ruled in 2002 that Soros was involved in insider trading during a French bank takeover bid in 1988. While admitting no wrongdoing, Soros was fined $2,000,000 for his part.

Drudge falsely claimed Soros funds Media Matters
Internet gossip Matt Drudge has claimed that Media Matters for America is a "Soros operation."

In fact, Media Matters has never received funding from progressive philanthropist George Soros.
?-J.F

ican, All you need to do is show evidence that Media Matters received funding from George Soros.

ALL OF TODAY'S EXCERPTS CAN BE FOUND AT:

ican, Are you intentionally ignoring my direct q? Re: George Soros' funds Media Matters. You made a claim, now prove it with evidence.

MORE CIRCUMSTANCIAL EVIDENCE TO COME!

I won't hold my breath.

The dems are blowing it; it's gonna affect the November 2008 elections.

Senate Dems fail to cut off war funds
By DAVID ESPO, AP Special Correspondent

WASHINGTON - Anti-war Democrats in the Senate failed in an attempt to cut off funds for the Iraq war on Wednesday, a lopsided bipartisan vote that masked growing impatience within both political parties over President Bush's handling of the four-year conflict.

ican, Do you even understand the meaning of "circumstantial evidence?"

Those links aren't even close. Using Bill O'Reilly as evidence will only get you laughed out of court.

How is this possible?
I thought that stopping the war was the only reason the dems were elected?
Now you are saying they either cant or wont stop it?

But,arent they doing the "will of the people"?

Lets face it,the dems dont want to stop the war while they are in power,and they cant stop it while Bush is in the WH.

If they stop the funding and force the US to leave Iraq,and the ME then falls into complee and total chaos,then the dems will get the political blame for it.
They dont want that to happen.

If the dems in congress do nothing,they get the political blame from their various constituent groups.
Either way,the dems will lose,and they dont want that.
They want to be seen as trying to do something,allthe while hoping that Bush will end the war BEFORE the 08 elections.
If that happens,the dems can take the credit.
If it doesnt happen,the dems will get the blame because they campaigned on a platform of ending the war.

So,the dems dont want the war to end,they cant afford it politically.

mm, You can take that article for what it's worth; no skin off my butt.

I really am not interested in any of the skin off your butt or any other part of your anatomy.
