Obama Financier, George Soros, Behind Governor Palin Ethics Complaint
Governor Palin 4 President ^

Posted on 06/01/2009 11:27:31 AM PDT by MaxCUA

Billionaire George Soros is an extreme leftist & naturally a huge supporter & financier of Øbama. Soros funds dozens of far-left front groups which advocate everything from open borders, to the legalization of most drugs, to abortion on demand. George Soros’ funded "programs" also promote the liberal agenda being taught in schools. Some of Mr. Soros' endeavors include: MoveOn.org, The Open Society Institute, USAction, Center For American Progress, Americans United For Change, money to ACORN & many more, including Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington (CREW).

CREW is the group who filed the clothes complaint against Governor Palin, and, in conjunction with Soros’ many activist organizations, as well as "friends" in the media, kept the story going well past its normal shelf life. CREW is a shadowy group. Depending on the source, you will find that CREW was either founded in 2001 by left-wing activists Norm Eisen (an attorney) and Louis Mayberg (a prominent Democrat donor, and co-founder of the Maryland-based mutual fund management firm ProFund Advisors LLC). Or...CREW was founded by Melanie Sloan, in 2003. Ms. Sloan is listed as the Executive Director on CREW's website. As you see, she references 2003. "CREW was founded in 2003 by Melanie Sloan, a former U.S. Attorney."

CREW receives funds from several George Soros groups such as the Democracy Alliance, the Tides Foundation, as well as the Open Society Institute – all Soros front groups. CREW seeks to construe itself as "non-partisan," however, all of their efforts target Republicans or conservatives. CREW's main purpose seems to be to file ethics complaints against a prominent, high profile target with the primary intention of seeking negative media exposure as opposed to pursuing real issues.

This has most certainly been the strategy used against Governor Palin. Numerous phony, and, sometimes, almost comical "ethics complaints" have been filed against Governor Palin since she has become a national figure and the front runner for the 2012 Republican nomination for President. The filing of these nonsensical complaints (13 of which have been thrown out), made huge headlines nationwide, and yet little, if any, news coverage has been devoted to their resolutions.

We knew it all along. $oro$ and Axisrodent try every trick in the book to foil Palin. Nothing will work. They gnashing of teeth among the leftists will be great, but they will all fail. The more they attack her, the more she will get in donations and support.

Oh I knew Soros and Axelrod are the ones behind this. I’ve known this since back in September. It was obvious. They are also the ones that are finding these morons who are already mentally unstable to file bogus ethics complaints against her. Just throw some money in their face and they will do anything

Their plan is nothing more than the same plan of “Hate Bush”

Been a while since I posted this Palin vid-pretty much sums up the attacks on her:

Would this be the same Norm Eisen who is now special counsel to the president for ethics and government reform?

I have to tell you that even here in Alaska some people I have talked to who do not like Palin are getting tired of the absurd complaints that are costing the state lots of money. A number of the complaints come from the same husband and wife couple and are financially supported from out of state. It is really an atrocious abuse and of course the drive by media is silent.

"We need to crack these commie groups open like chestnuts on an open fire...."

Note the strikingly similar dishonest shell game of groups-within-groups structure of the left-wing network to that of Islamofascism.

No coincidence either that they both have the same motivation: Destroy the United States and all that it stands for.

Why are we not surprised.

No other Conservative Republican in Office, especially one who may run for Pres. in 2012 is attacked from the Left as
much as Gov. Palin. She is spot on with her views and what she has done as Governor.

This goes into detail into his Marxist groups with many

Great Post.
I hope some people get a clue what is behind the Gov. Palin bashing and smears. Gov. Palin has delt with courage
in fighting back the LeftWing attacks.

“Note the strikingly similar dishonest shell game of groups”

This is exactly true, it is a shell game. Back years ago when I was a young guy I used to hang out with the leftist crowd. Every leftist organization had the exact same membership, just a different name, and was lead by the same people. Whenever they would sponsor anything they would list about 20 different organizations, which made it look really impressive, most people didn’t realize that those 20 organizations were the same 50 people. That’s why when we would hold demonstrations, supposedly sponsored by 20 groups, only about 20 people would actually show up. The leaders always had rolls of $5 to pay students, winos, bums, etc., to march around and hold a sign. Most of the time the “rent a mob” crowd outnumbered those representing the sponsoring “groups.” Yet, each “group” had its own donor list. I strongly suspected even then that most of those donating to one group didn’t realize just who there money was going to.
