Overwhelm the system

[delldude]

What just happened in the Senate?

Oh yes, George Sorors. Another one talk radio's boogeymen.

Soros and the protesters deny any connection. But Reuters did find indirect financial links between Soros and Adbusters, an anti-capitalist group in Canada which started the protests with an inventive marketing campaign aimed at sparking an Arab Spring type uprising against Wall Street. Moreover, Soros and the protesters share some ideological ground.

The Hungarian-American was an early supporter of the 2008 election campaign of Barack Obama, who will seek a second term as president in the November, 2012, election. He has long backed liberal causes - the Open Society Institute, the foreign policy think tank Council on Foreign Relations and Human Rights Watch.

According to disclosure documents from 2007-2009, Soros' Open Society gave grants of $3.5 million to the Tides Center, a San Francisco-based group that acts almost like a clearing house for other donors, directing their contributions to liberal non-profit groups. Among others the Tides Center has partnered with are the Ford Foundation and the Gates Foundation.

Disclosure documents also show Tides, which declined comment, gave Adbusters grants of $185,000 from 2001-2010, including nearly $26,000 between 2007-2009.

Aides to Soros say any connection is tenuous and that Soros has never heard of Adbusters. Soros himself declined comment.

Sounds like a conspiracy theory to me

It just amazes me sometimes how some poeple get in a tizzy at the very mention of his name. I for one would have thought you to be a fan of his when attacked bank bailouts becasue they "provide artificial life support for the banks at considerable expense to the taxpayer."

Who do you think has done more harm to not only our economy but the world, George Soros or the CEO's of banks and investment firms? Yet more people for some odd reason more people have probably heard of George Soros than say the CEO of Goldman Sachs who helped Greece hide it's debt. My guess is that Mr. Soros is talk radios flavor of the month.

George Soros is a wealthy man with a political agenda. In that respect he's no better or worse than the Koch Brothers. Out there in the world of politics the Left and Right often meet up at Libertarian on certain issues. Many Republicans have a Libertarian streak in them but just can't seem to 'fess up to it so we get the Neo-Cons and their ilk dominating the debate and like their Liberal friends they need a bogeyman and Soros is no better or worse then say, Ted Turner.

Who has done more harm? The Federal Reserve makes all you mentioned look like Sunday School teachers. The media can't, doesn't or doesn't want to do the legwork and research to uncover the real reasons we are where we are. Soros, Obama, Bush have their part to be sure. However when you start reading the works of members of the Austrian School of economics and how since the creation of the Fed they were essentially correct in their assumptions and predictions it becomes rather clear that "We The People" have bed had! Our Freedom, Liberty and personal wealth confiscated by a corrupt monetary system fueled by greed among other things.

The above is why I'm such a ardent supporter of Ron Paul. We are on the road to enslavement and Bush, Obama and the rest of the political class are willing dupes

Soros is pretty good at playing the banker game and profiting from it.

Funny though...he seems so well connected to all these extreme progressive causes and agenda's......Tides Foundation.....Apollo Project.....notice by chance most of the hippie commies from the 60's are working for these types? And old George is right up there fronting money? I guess its just a damn coincidence....... I hope I don't get hit by a meteor tonight when I take the dog out.....

Nothing in there about him somehow being resposnisble for the current mess we are in. So like I said before, whose done more damage to the US economy? George Soros or the CEO's of various banks and investment firms along with a long list of politicians?

Funny how some people ger all worked up when the name George Soros is mentioned yet play deff, dumb and blind when you mention the name Koch.

That answer is a no brainer. For those that chose to use it.

Government socialism experiment run amok. The US economy goes across the pond these days dude. It isn't quite that simple or easy to place blame.

So what exactly was George Soros role in all this?

George Soros is the "Face" of the Liberal Progressive movement must like Sarah Palin is to the Tea Party. Difference being Soros has actually created wealth and jobs whereas Palin is the Paris Hilton of Politics enriching herself at the expense of others.

Soros uses his wealth as a vehicle with which to communicate his beliefs and to put them into an actionable agenda. There isn't anything wrong with this as long as you acknowledge the Koch Brothers to be similar and treat both views with respect and a healthy skepticism as the debate continues.

Politico's LOOK for scapegoats and in this particular cycle the villianization of the Koch Brother and Mr. Soros continue when it should cease.

Obama's agenda: Overwhelm the system

Excerpt:

You know this is right out of Cloward-Piven strategy.......isn't that peculiar?

Interesting read. IMHO, this has been perpetuated 'long' before then.
Had a friend in Elementary living in 'the projects'.
Visited his unit a couple of times, but in the late 50's the projects were pretty well kept up, at least on the outside.
His house was a disaster on the inside and I never met his mama and papa on my visits. Seems the kids had to fend for themselves. Went there one time at the beginning of the month (welfare payday) and he received a call from papa to deliver the mail. Yep, I went with him. Lo and behold mama and papa were at a local bar getting smashed and cashed their check. Never went back after that (after I told my parents... ).

I have no idea of how things work now but I drove through EPA, Mission District, etc... and wouldn't change a tire if it went flat. We have created a sub-culture that breeds welfare, crime, corruption, etc...

IMHO the "Cloward-Piven strategy" was created long before they 'thought this up'.

Long before then......in the twenties,thirties and forties by progressives?
Whose finger prints are all over the free stuff state?
CLoward-Piven figured out how to flatten the tires so everyone could get a 'paycheck' and live happily ever after.(until the other 50% ran out of cash)
Frannie was active in the Clintstone admin.......

Those progressives are immortal.

Who knew right-wing whackjobs would worship them to keep their legacies alive after everyone else moved on?
