Have you seen their tax return? Did they break out their sources of receipts on their return or some other disclosure?

But alas, moveon.org…lives on internet donations from liberals…

lgm, have you seen their tax return? Did they break out their sources of receipts on their return or some other disclosure? If so, it would be interesting to see. Can you share?

Cabal of Far Left Soros-Funded Fringe Groups Take…

No surprise here, leading the charge for this amalgam of fringe groups is The Silky Pony himself.

Naturally, they’re also running against George W. Bush as well….

Democratic grass roots organizations on Monday launched a $20 million campaign to defeat Republican John McCain in the 2008 U.S. presidential election by focusing their attention on rising costs of the Iraq war……..

…..“There’s a great concern and anxiety, angst out there among most Americans about their economic security,” Edwards said in a teleconference from North Carolina. “All these things are made much worse by concern about what’s happening in Iraq … People don’t understand why we’re spending $500 billion and counting in Iraq.”

Given that these are all Keynsians, they’re supposed to want more government spending to stimulate the economy! I guess that just counts for the kind of government spending they prefer – on themselves.

The “grass-roots” is so concerned about the cost of the war.Why aren’t they concerned about the rising cost of food,brought on because of their idiotic acceptance of environmentalist bullcrap?
Am I the only one who sees the stupidity of coverting food into gasoline substitutes?Especially when the substitute is more damaging to the environment than gasoline.Mindless morons.I’m quite sure the real “grass-roots” are far more concerned with matters other than the monetary cost of war.Of course with the MSM spinning stories to suit their own agenda,how can we expect those who can’t(or won’t)do a little research to make informed decisions?
Oh well,thanks for letting me get that off my chest.

LOL…now now (John) McCain… Soros wasn’t reaching to get your wallet to stuff it full of money again… he was finding a nice spot to shove the knife.

You sleep with dogs….don’t cry to us when you wake up with fleas.

If “swiftboating” means being attacked by astroturf organizations from the other side funded by rich people with an ax to grind (a reasonable description of the Republican swiftboat operation), I say: by all means, let it happen to McCain. Bring it on.

But alas, moveon.org is not a Soros operation any more (was it ever?). It lives on internet donations from liberals much like the NRA lives on donations from gun enthusiasts and “second amendment supporters”.

Has anyone checked Soros’s immigration status you know there might be a reason he is all up in arms about the undocumented people in this country..I mean what if he is one? He would have to subvert our will from outside our boundrys. It is just a thought. Green Card status? over stayed his visa I know he has over stayed his welcome.

George Soros you can’t fight Big Oil and Win.

how many “grass roots campaigns” does anyone know of that has $20 million to throw at something like that?

How difficult can it be? All the “grass ~~smokin’~~ roots organization” has to do is cut and paste the words of the “conservative” pundits on radio and blogoshpere. Coulter, Limbaugh and the rest have dug up all the ammunition they’ll need, and have hammered on it with manic relentlessness.

Well, it’s grass-roots alright. Except, it’s that “other” type of grass they’re talking about, I believe.

But the roots of the “other” kind of grass are so bitter when they go up in flames…oh, I get it!
