“GOPUSA” Internet Site Suddenly Deletes Column Calling George Soros “Descendant of Shylock”

An opinion column displayed earlier this week on the Internet site of GOPUSA engaged in virulent anti-Semitism while condemning international philanthropist and financier George Soros. The editorial was written under the byline of “Sartre,” the pen name of James Hall – a self-described “former political operative.” Under the headline “Satan Lives in George Soros,” Hall writes, “The fiction which is interdependency has a prolocutor in the congregation of Moloch. His name is George Soros. No other single person represents the symbol and the substance of Globalism more than this Hungarian-born descendant of Shylock. He is the embodiment of the Merchant from Venice. ...If Soros is correct when he says a ‘supremacist ideology’ guides the White House, what would you call the practices of the archfiend of Free Enterprise? The Soros deception would make Shylock proud. ... [I]t’s not about anti-Semitism! [Outgoing Malaysian Prime Minister] Mahathir Mohammad was just stating the truth....”

Hall’s column appears weekly at the GOPUSA Internet site. Under the motto “Bringing the Conservative Message to America,” GOPUSA.com regularly features leading conservative writers such as Linda Chavez, David Horowitz and Alan Keyes. According to the Internet site, a GOPUSA Washington conference earlier this month was scheduled to hear from confirmed speakers such as Senator John Cornyn (R-TX), Representatives Tom Tancredo (R-CO) and Steve King (R-IA), the Deputy Director of the White House Office of Public Liaison, the “eCampaign Manager” for Bush-Cheney ’04, the Communications Director for House Speaker Dennis Hastert (R-IL) and former Representative Bob Barr (R-GA), among others. Without explanation, GOPUSA – which itself is not formally linked to the GOP – suddenly removed the page featuring Hall’s November 17th article sometime on November 18th, though the text remains at the author’s Internet site.

“Suddenly deleting such vile anti-Semitism from this Republican site – with no explanation, and no apology – simply won’t cut it. Virulent anti-Semitism causes very real damage, and GOPUSA must acknowledge this,” said National Jewish Democratic Council Executive Director Ira N. Forman. “While nothing can make up for originally providing a forum for this screed, a first step must be for GOPUSA to issue an apology. GOPUSA must also explain how this could possibly happen in an organization that bills itself as the megaphone for the conservative Republican movement – and how this could happen in an organization that is supported by major GOP representatives and leaders at all levels, including the White House, the Bush-Cheney campaign, the Senate and the House. GOPUSA must – at an absolute minimum – sever its relationship with this obviously unacceptable author.

“We say it so often now that it has become utterly cliché, but in the face of the supposed all-out Republican effort to attract Jewish voters, I will say it once more: If this is the Republican idea of Jewish outreach, then I’d hate to see what antagonism looks like,” Forman added.

Yeah...that statement truly represents anti-semitism!!

They should have used Joe 'HoneyFitz" Kennedy as the example.

We Irish have thicker skins!

I find it very hard to take seriously the mewlings of Jews who would align themselves with the Democratic Party, the Party that wants to take your guns away, ala Hitler, the Party loaded with terrorist sympathizers of Arafat,who wants another Holocaust, ala Hitler....

These morons need to check out a few of the Democrap DUmpster sites to see how their "fellows" feel about them.

A few blurbs from the NJDC's mission statement: "Educating Jewish voters about the very real differences between their Democratic and Republican candidates for elected office..." "Fighting the radical right agenda at every turn through research and reports, grassroots advocacy, working directly with lawmakers in Washington, and educating journalists." "Engaging and cultivating a new generation of young Jewish Democratic leaders by replicating our highly successful Washington-based Young Leadership program in other major cities, including New York, Boston, Los Angeles, Cleveland and South Florida." And of course no good liberal website would be complete w/o a quote from and accolade about either Klinton or Bore; "Vice President Al Gore receives NJDC's 2000 Hubert H. Humphrey Humanitarian Award from (on left) NJDC Vice-Chair David Steiner and NJDC National Chairman William B. Dockser. In the words of Vice President Al Gore, "NJDC is an organization that is extremely important in the deliberations of the Democratic Party.... This strength and commitment is serving the finest traditions of the Democratic Party at a time when we need to hear your voices loudly and clearly." Gotta love that word "education" and how it's used by the libs! LOL

Stupid remark, but no more stupid than Ted Kennedy recently calling certain minority candidates up for judgeships "neanderthals."

In light of Al Sharpton's comments about Jews and never retracted. the outrage seems a bit hypocritical.

[SpaceBar]

This is an anti-hit piece put out by the left to deflect some serious observations regarding Soros.

The Hungarian born businessman by his own words equates his memories of his Nazi occupied homeland with the current US administration's policies regarding terror, and views George W. Bush as equivalent or worse to Hitler. Clear hyperbole as viewed from saner heads. Also, Soros, as a long time international currency speculator, nearly crippled the Malaysian Ringgit by his speculative dabblings. Soros is a jew. Some have speculated that Soros' activities might have fueled the anti-semitic sentiments voiced by Malaysian Prime Minister Mathatir Mohammad in a recent speech to world leaders of Islamic countries. That is the situation in a nutshell. Regardless of whether you buy the Soros/Mathatir theory is up to you, but the theory is an interesting one and deserves some consideration as to its validity.

OOPS! I'll improve the readability... :eek:

Some time ago, one SARTRE got tossed off this site.

Despite SARTRE's self-references in the third person (#153), SARTRE is not Bob Dole.

Utterly predictable...more to come. Kroc just gave 200 mil to PBS; these guys are obviously gonna be in line for George's largess. [or the first payment is made]

I have to admire the scope and breadth of this concerted effort by socialists to undermine the US.

When will this bunch, and the ADL, demand an apology from the producers of Star Trek for the Ferengi?

[hellinahandcart]

Seems like a good move, in retrospect.

Sartre was one of that fun-lovin' crew of crazies (which included Todd Fahey)over at Etherzone, wasn't Sartre?

Soros is the antichrist as far as I'm concerned and I've been keeping an eye on that Fascist for 4-5 years. I don't give a damn what religion he is. He's still a fascist, crook, and currency breaker.

[Lead Moderator]

"Seems like a good move, in retrospect."

Thanks. We thought so.

[Poohbah]

I don't give a damn what religion he is.

I don't think he is any religion at all. Attacking him in anti-Semitic fashion actually legitimizes Soros, though--as you cogently observed, "He's still a fascist, crook, and currency breaker." That's more than enough reason for shunning the worthless gobshite.

If the shoe fits, wear it!!

His mother was a hamster. And his father smells like elderberries....

[Dan from Michigan]

His religion is Leftism. "Technically" he's considered a non practicing Jew.

Bill Clinton's supposed to be a Southern Baptist too....

[Poohbah]

Quite possible.

Hoping you're a Monty Python fan..... 8~)

[Poohbah]

Well, I just farted in his general direction. He should go away, lest we taunt him some more.
