George Soros recently said he wants to get out of politics. Don’t believe him. The billionaire philanthropist’s quest to influence domestic politics continues.
Love him or loathe him, you can't deny Soros plays a central role in left of-center U.S. politics – not only as a funder of causes and candidates, but also as freelance spokesman and pundit. Soros, in the words of David Horowitz, is the leader of a “shadow party” that wants to control the Democratic Party, and eventually, the U.S. government.
Soros has no love for the current Republican Party and people associated with it. He reserves his most biting barbs not for President Bush, but for members of the Bush administration – and GOP organizers. Soros has claimed there are “nefarious psychological reasons” that explain Vice President Dick Cheney’s ideas. And he has called John Bolton, U.S. ambassador to the United Nations, a member of a group of “rabid American supremacists.” Indeed, Soros takes great delight in attacking Bush appointees. He had the following to say about Karl Rove: “You don’t have a Karl Marx, you have only a Karl Rove who has been successful in creating a coalition of fundamentalists.”
The shadowy Democracy Alliance, a Soros-inspired donor collective of 80 mega-wealthy liberals dedicated to building a movement of left-wing think-tanks and media outfits, has yet to reveal which groups it is funding. However, news reports say that groups like the John Podesta-led Center for American Progress and Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington (CREW) have made the cut.
CREW, the 501(c)(3) group that in July 2006 gave the FBI copies of e-mails sent by then-Representative Mark Foley to a congressional page, received $100,000 in January from Soros’s Open Society Institute, according to news reports.

Translation: Bolton is an American patriot, and Soros despises American patriots.
Cross posted these two very important threads.
I wonder if his friend and associate Prince Alwaleed Bin Talal has offered him the Islamist equivalent of a free pass, the way Herr Baumbach did back in '44.
My great hope is that Soros comes up empty again - just like when he tried to influence the '04 elections.

George Soros: "A rabid anti-American, pro terrorist supremacist".
Why are we taking this from a convicted criminal swindler?
Soros is waiting for the democrats to be back in office so he will have access once again to real money making inside information in his mega-billion dollar currency swindles.
More like a one-man cash machine!
