I wonder if any of the members who aren't Democrats will be required to donate?  I wonder if the Democratic pot will give back to the members to offset this expense.  After all, their past membership dues went to the Democratic campaign.   

Do they have any choices in these matters?

As for Strickland....who is he?  

 :biggrin:
Every union member needs to know about this site.  They can ask for a refund on the portion of their dues that are not directly used for representing them. Until now though, it’s been almost impossible for any member to find out exactly how much their refund should be.   They can use this site to find out how to get their monies back...

California Seizing Property from Safety Deposit Boxes
April 9, 2011 by Robert Blumen

As reported by ABC News, what started out as a program to hold unclaimed property, such as the contents of safety deposit boxes owned by people who have moved away without a forwarding address, has gone wildly out of control. The program is now using the flimsiest of excuses to drill safe deposit boxes and sell the contents, often for below-market value, the proceeds going to the state's general revenue.

In a case reminiscent of the Monty Python organ donor skit (or perhaps the movie Repo Men), a San Francisco woman's jewelry appraised at over $80,000 was sold even though she lived a few blocks from her bank, had not moved, and was current on all of her box rental feeds. In another case, a man's retirement savings consisting of $4 million of stock certificates were sold; and "A Sacramento family lost out on railroad land rights their ancestors had owned for generations".

The program began life as a place to hold unclaimed property for up to 5 years while the state made attempts to locate the owner. Both the holding period and the efforts to locate the owner have diminished over time. ABC news indicates that there have been internal debates within the state on these changes, with an internal memo objecting to efforts to to find the owners on the grounds that "It could well result in additional claims of monies that would otherwise flow into the general fund."

What surprises me about these seizures is the scale and how under-reported it is. This is the first article that I have seen on this topic, compared to dozens of pieces and several books on civil asset forfeiture. This phenomenon is probably at least as large as CAF ­ Jarret Wollstein cites a number in the low single-digit billions for asset forfeiture (which may be an annual number) compared to the $32 billion (which may be a multi-year aggregate) appearing in the ABC news story. In comparison, looting of safe deposit boxes requires even less due process than asset forfeiture, which at least requires that the property be accused of a crime, and can be fought in court.

"The one absolutely certain way of  bringing this nation to ruin, or preventing all possibility of its continuing as a nation at all, would be to permit it to become a tangle of squabbling nationalities and languages."  President Teddy Roosevelt 

Of all the unwise and foolish things our U.S. Congress has imposed on the American people in the past 40 years, the late Teddy Kennedy's 1965 Immigration Reform Act will prove the most dangerous piece of legislation for the continuance of the United States. 

While George Washington enjoys the moniker as "Father of our country", Kennedy may become known as the "Father of the destruction of our country."

Not only did his bill ram an added 100 million immigrants into the United States n the past 40 years, it will cram another 100 million into this country by 2035—a scant 24 years from now. 

Beyond the environmental overload as to ecological footprint, carbon footprint, water, energy and resources—we face another more ominous and deadly overload of incompatible cultures and religions.  The wise philosopher Kant said, "Religion and language are the two great dividers."

A Fein Time for an Impeachment
Written by Michael Tennant   
Thursday, 07 April 2011 16:05

"Barack Hussein Obama has mocked the rule of law, endangered the very existence of the Republic and the liberties of the people, and perpetrated an impeachable high crime and misdemeanor." So charges constitutional lawyer and former Reagan Department of Justice official Bruce Fein in the 15-page article of impeachment he has drawn up in response to Obama's unconstitutional war on Libya.

Fein has experience in such matters, having written the first article of impeachment against President Bill Clinton. He also called for the impeachment of President George W. Bush and Vice President Dick Cheney, though obviously his call went unheeded.

His case against Obama is particularly strong, concentrating on the (ahem) unimpeachable fact that the Constitution vests the power of initiating hostilities in Congress, not the President ­ a fact acknowledged by the Founding Fathers, previous Presidents and Congresses, the Supreme Court, and even Obama and other members of his administration (before they joined the executive branch), as Fein documents copiously. For having flouted this constitutional provision, declared "that Congress is powerless to constrain his conduct of the war," and claimed "authority in the future to commence war unilaterally," Fein concludes Obama is deserving of impeachment.

Fein first demonstrates that Congress's impeachment power is intended to ensure that Presidents' "attempts to subvert the Constitution" do not succeed. He cites the minutes of the Constitutional Convention, the Federalist Papers, and even the articles of impeachment against President Richard Nixon. He then quotes James Madison's warnings about the dangers of war to liberty and avers: "The exclusive congressional power to commence war under … the Constitution is the pillar of the Republic and the greatest constitutional guarantor of individual liberty, transparency, and government frugality."

Next Fein delivers a thorough exposition on the meaning of the "declare war" clause of the Constitution. "The authors of the United States Constitution," he writes, "manifestly intended Article I, Section VIII, Clause XI to fasten exclusive responsibility and authority on the Congress to decide whether to undertake offensive military action." They also, he maintains, "believed that individual liberty and the Republic would be endangered by fighting too many wars, not too few," and "understood that to aggrandize power and to leave a historical legacy, the executive in all countries chronically inflates danger manifold to justify warfare."

Fein goes on to quote numerous sources in support of his contention. For example:

In 1793, President George Washington, who presided over the Federal Convention, wrote to South Carolina Governor William Moultrie in regards to a prospective counter-offensive against the American Indian Creek Nation: "The Constitution vests the power of declaring war with Congress, therefore no offensive expedition of importance can be undertaken until after they have deliberated upon the subject, and authorized such a measure."

… In a message to Congress in December, 1805 regarding potential military action to resolve a border dispute with Spain, President Thomas Jefferson acknowledged that "Congress alone is constitutionally invested with the power of changing our condition from peace to war, I have thought it my duty to await their authority for using force." He requested Congressional authorization for offensive military action, even short of war….

In his concurrence in Youngstown Sheet & Tube Co. v. Sawyer, 343 U.S. 579, 642-643 (1952), which rebuked President Harry Truman's claim of unilateral war powers in the Korean War, Justice Robert Jackson elaborated:

Nothing in our Constitution is plainer than that declaration of a war is entrusted only to Congress. Of course, a state of war may in fact exist without a formal declaration. But no doctrine that the Court could promulgate would seem to me more sinister and alarming than that a President whose conduct of foreign affairs is so largely uncontrolled, and often even is unknown, can vastly enlarge his mastery over the internal affairs of the country by his own commitment of the Nation's armed forces to some foreign venture.

Crowning the President with unilateral authority to commence war," Fein argues, "would empower the President to initiate war without limit, threatening the very existence of the Republic…. [T]he principle, if ever accepted by Congress, would lie around like a loaded weapon ready for use by any successor craving absolute power."

Fein dismisses the argument that Obama's war is not an impeachable offense since other Presidents have similarly violated the Constitution, saying that such "usurpations" of power "are not rendered constitutional by repetition."

He also points out that United Nations Security Council resolutions are insufficient to initiate hostilities. The UN Charter itself, he explains, explicitly states that Security Council resolutions "shall be subject to ratification by the signatory states in accordance with their respective constitutional processes." In other words, just because the UN says it's okay to begin bombing in five minutes, Congress must declare war in order for the United States to join the fray.

Then Fein administers what may be the coup de grace of the whole document: the now-infamous quotations from Obama, Vice President Joseph Biden, and Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, back when they were mere Senators, to the effect that the President may not go to war unilaterally and should be impeached if he does so. (The New American has reported on these remarks previously.)

Arguing that Obama has usurped Congress's authority to declare war, Fein writes that "Obama's military acts against Libya constitute acts of war" against a country that "posed no actual or imminent threat to the United States"; that Obama has stated he "will never hesitate to use our military … unilaterally"; that his "humanitarian justification for war in Libya establishes a threshold that would justify his initiation of warfare in scores of nations around the globe"; and that Secretary Clinton has said the administration will ignore any congressional attempts to interfere with Obama's war. Thus, Fein concludes,

President Obama has arrested the rule of law, and saluted a vandalizing of the Constitution that will occasion ruination of the Republic, the crippling of individual liberty, and a Leviathan government unless the President is impeached by the House of Representatives and removed from office by the Senate.

Fein has made what would seem to be a watertight case for impeachment and removal; and the good news is that it may turn out to be more than a purely intellectual endeavor. Fein told Politico, "There's definitely been interest on [Capitol] Hill. There's at least two dozen who have been open to the idea that this is a serious constitutional crisis." Among those are Rep. Ron Paul (R-Texas) and Rep. Dennis Kucinich (D-Ohio), both of whom have called Obama's unilateral war-making an impeachable offense, and probably several of the cosponsors (13, including five Democrats, as of this writing) of Rep. Justin Amash's (R-Mich.) bill to end the war.

Those who are concerned about the Constitution and the rule of law should hope Congress takes up Fein's charge. As Fein himself told Politico, "If [Obama] can wipe out the war powers authorization, why can't he wipe out Congress's authority to spend? If we're going to be a government of laws, and not descend into empire, this is Caesar crossing the Rubicon."

Travis, this and what George Soros is planning is more important than anything that is happening in Washington, because it controls Washington and our nation. I just wonder how much response this will get.

Most complete article I've read on this man.  How can one person be this powerful?

     
FROM STEVE KROFT (60 Minutes)

Glenn Beck has been developing material to show all the ties that George Soros has through the nation and world along with his goals.. This article is written by Steve Kroft from 60 Minutes.  It begins to piece together the rise of Obama and his behavior in leading the nation along with many members of Congress (in particular the Democrats, such as the election of Pelosi as the minority leader in  Congress)

If you have wondered where Obama came from and just how he quickly moved from obscurity to President, or why the media is "selective" in what we are told, here is the man who most probably put him there and that Soros is responsible. He controls President Obama's every move.    Invest a few minutes and read this. You won't regret it.
 

Who is Obama? Obama is a puppet and here is the explanation of the man or demon that pulls his strings. It's not by chance that Obama can manipulate the world.  "In history, nothing happens by accident If it happened, you can bet someone planned it."/ Franklin Delano Roosevelt

Who Is George Soros? He brought the market down in 2 days. Here is what CBS' Mr. Steve Kroft's research has turned up. It's a bit of a read, and it took 4 months to put it together. "The main obstacle to a stable and just world order is the United States . "George Soros"

George Soros is an evil man.  He's anti-God, anti-family, anti-American, and anti-good." He killed and robbed his own Jewish people. What we have in Soros, is a multi-billionaire atheist, with skewed moral values, and a sociopath's lack of conscience. He considers himself to be an elitist World class philosopher, despises the American way, and just loves to do social engineering and change cultures.

György Schwartz, better known to the world as George Soros, was born  August 12, 1930 in Hungary . Soros' father, Tivadar, was a fervent practitioner of the Esperanto language invented in 1887, and designed to be the first global language, free of any national identity. The Schwartz's, who were non-practicing Jews, changed the family name to Soros, in order to facilitate  assimilation into the Gentile population, as the Nazis spread into Hungary during the 1930s

When Hitler's henchman Adolf Eichmann arrived in Hungary , to oversee the murder of that  country's Jews, George Soros ended up with a man whose job was confiscating property from the Jewish population. Soros went with him on his rounds.

Soros has repeatedly called 1944  "the best year of his life." 70% of Mr. Soros's fellow Jews in Hungary, nearly a half-million human beings, were annihilated in that year, yet he gives no sign that this put any damper on his elation, either at the time or indeed in retrospect" During an interview with "Sixty Minute's" Steve Kroft, Soros was asked about  his "best year."


KROFT: My understanding is that  you went out with this protector of yours who swore that you were his adopted godson.   SOROS: Yes  Yes.


KROFT: Went out, in fact, and helped in the confiscation of property from your fellow Jews, friends and neighbors.   SOROS: Yes. That's right.  Yes.


KROFT: I mean, that sounds like an experience that  would send lots of people to the psychiatric couch for many, many, years. Was it difficult?

SOROS: No, not at all. Not at all, I  rather enjoyed it.


KROFT: No feelings of  guilt?

SOROS: No, only feelings of absolute  power.


In his article, Muravchik describes how Soros  has admitted to having carried some rather "potent messianic fantasies with me from childhood, which I felt I had to control, otherwise they might get me in trouble." Be that as it may. After WWII, Soros attended the London School of Economics, where he fell  under the thrall of fellow atheist and Hungarian, Karl Popper,  one of his professors. Popper was a mentor to Soros until Popper's  death in 1994. Two of Popper's most influential teachings concerned  "the open society," and Fallibilism.


Fallibilism is the philosophical doctrine that all claims of knowledge could, in principle, be mistaken. (Then again, I could be wrong about that.)   The "open society" basically refers to a "test and evaluate"  approach to social engineering. Regarding "open society" Roy Childs writes, "Since the Second World War, most of the Western democracies have followed Popper's advice about piecemeal social  engineering and democratic social reform, and it has gotten them into a grand mess."


In 1956 Soros moved to New York City, where he worked on Wall Street, and started amassing his  fortune. He specialized in hedge funds and currency speculation.  Soros is absolutely ruthless, amoral, and clever in his business dealings, and quickly made his fortune. By the 1980s he was well on  his way to becoming the global powerhouse that he is today.


In an article Kyle-Anne Shiver wrote for "The American Thinker" she says, "Soros made his first billion in 1992 by shorting  the British pound with leveraged billions in financial bets, and became known as the man who broke the Bank of England . He broke it on the backs of hard-working British citizens who immediately saw their homes severely devalued and their life savings cut drastically, almost overnight."

In 1994 Soros crowed in "The New Republic ," that "the former Soviet Empire is now called the Soros Empire." The Russia-gate scandal in 1999, which almost collapsed the Russian economy, was labeled by Rep. Jim Leach, then head of the House Banking Committee, to be "one of the greatest social robberies in human history. "The "Soros Empire" indeed. In 1997 Soros almost destroyed the economies of Thailand and Malaysia .  At the time, Malaysia 's Prime Minister, Mahathir Mohammad, called  Soros "a villain, and a moron." Thai activist Weng Tojirakarn said, "We regard George Soros as a kind of Dracula. He sucks the  blood from the people."


The website Greek National  Pride reports, "Soros was part of the full court press that dismantled Yugoslavia and caused trouble in Georgia , Ukraine and Myanmar [Burma] Calling himself a philanthropist, Soros' role is to tighten the ideological stranglehold of globalization and the New World Order while promoting his own financial gain. He is without conscience; a capitalist who functions with absolute amorality."


France has upheld an earlier conviction  against Soros, for felony insider trading. Soros was fined 2.9 million dollars. Recently, his native Hungary fined Soros 2.2  million dollars for "illegal market manipulation." Elizabeth Crum  writes that the Hungarian economy has been in a state of transition as the country seeks to become more financially stable and westernized. Soros deliberately driving down the share price of its largest bank put Hungary's economy into a wicked tailspin, one from which it is still trying to recover.


My point here is that Soros is a planetary parasite. His grasp, greed, and gluttony have a global reach.  But what about America ? Soros told Australia 's  national newspaper "The Australian." " America , as the centre of  the globalised financial markets, was sucking up the savings of the world. This is now over. The game is out," he said, adding that the time has come for "a very serious adjustment" in American's consumption habits.  He implied that he was the one with the  power to bring this about."

Soros: "World financial crisis was "stimulating" and "in a way, the culmination of my life's work."

Obama has recently promised 10 billion of our tax dollars to Brazil , in order to give them a leg-up in  expanding their offshore oil fields. Obama's largesse towards Brazil came shortly after his political financial backer, George Soros, invested heavily in Brazilian oil (Pet rob ras).


Tait Trussel writes, "The Pet rob ras loan may be a windfall for Soros and Brazil , but it is a bad deal for the U. S. The American Petroleum Institute estimates that oil exploration in the U S could create 160,000 new, well-paying jobs, as well as $1.7 trillion in revenues to federal, state, and local governments, all while fostering greater energy security and independence."

A blog you might want to keep an eye on is SorosWatch. com. Their mission: "This blog is dedicated to all who have suffered due to the ruthless financial  pursuits of George Soros. Your stories are many and varied, but the theme is the same: the destructive power of greed without  conscience. We pledge to tirelessly watch Soros wherever he goes and to print the truth in the hope that he will one day be made to stop  preying upon the world's poor, that justice will be served."

Back to America . Soros has been actively working to destroy America from the inside out for some years now. People have been warning us. Two years ago, news sources reported that "Soros [is] an extremist who wants open borders, a one-world foreign policy, legalized drugs, euthanasia, and on and on. This is off-the-chart dangerous."\ In 1997 Rachel Ehrenfeld wrote, "Soros uses his philanthropy to change or more accurately deconstruct the moral values and attitudes of the  Western world, and particularly of the American people. His "open society" is not about freedom; it is about license. His vision rejects the notion of ordered liberty, in favor of a PROGRESSIVE ideology of rights and entitlements."

Perhaps the most important of these "whistle blowers" are David Horowitz and Richard Poe. Their book "The Shadow Party" outlines in detail how Soros hijacked the Democratic Party, and now owns it lock, stock, and barrel. Soros has been packing the Democratic Party with radicals, and ousting moderate Democrats for years. The Shadow Party became the Shadow Government, which recently became the Obama Administration.

Discover The Networks. org  (another good source) writes, "By his [Soros'] own admission, he  helped engineer coups in Slovakia , Croatia , Georgia , and  Yugoslavia . When Soros targets a country for "regime change," he begins by creating a  shadow government, a fully formed government-in-exile, ready to  assume power when the opportunity arises. The Shadow Party he has built in America greatly resembles those he has created in other  countries prior to instigating a coup."

November  2008 edition of the German magazine "Der Spiegel," in which Soros  gives his opinion on what the next POTUS (President of the U. S. )  should do after taking office. "I think we need a large stimulus package." Soros thought that around 600 billion would be about right. Soros also said that "I think Obama presents us a great opportunity to finally deal with global warming and energy dependence.  The U. S. needs a cap and trade system with  auctioning of licenses for emissions rights."


Although Soros doesn't (yet) own  the Republican Party, like he does the Democrats, make no mistake, his tentacles are spread throughout the Republican Party as well.

Soros is a partner in the Carlyle Group where he has invested more than 100 million dollars. According to an article by "The Baltimore Chronicle's" Alice Cherbonnier, the Carlye  Group is run by "a veritable who's who of former Republican leaders," from CIA man Frank Carlucci, to CIA head and ex-President George Bush, Sr.


In late 2006, Soros  bought about 2 million shares of Halliburton, Dick Cheney's old stomping grounds. When the Democrats and Republicans held their conventions in 2000, Soros held Shadow Party conventions in the same  cities, at the same time. In 2008, Soros donated $5,000,000,000 ( that's Five Billion ) to the  Democratic National Committee, DNC, to insure Obama's win and wins  for many other Alinsky trained Radical Rules Anti-American  Socialist. George has been contributing a $ billion plus to the DNC since Clinton came on the scene.


Soros has dirtied both sides of the aisle, trust me. And if that weren't  bad enough, he has long held connections with the CIA. And I mustn't forget to mention  Soros' involvement with the MSM (Main Stream Media), the  entertainment industry (e. g. he owns 2.6 million shares of Time  Warner), and the various political advertising organizations he  funnels millions to. In short, George Soros controls or influences most of the MSM.  Little wonder they ignore the TEA PARTY, Soro's NEMESIS.

As Matthew Vadum writes, "The liberal billionaire-turned-philanthropist has been buying up media  properties for years in order to drive home his message to the American public that they are too materialistic, too wasteful, too selfish, and too stupid to decide for themselves how to run their own lives."


Richard Poe writes, "Soros' private philanthropy, totaling nearly $5 billion, continues undermining America 's traditional Western   values. His giving has provided funding of abortion rights, atheism,  drug legalization, sex education, euthanasia, feminism, gun control,  globalization, mass immigration, gay marriage and other radical experiments in social engineering."

Some of the many NGOs (Non-Government Organizations) that Soros funds with his billions are: MoveOn. org, the Apollo Alliance , Media Matters for America , the Tides Foundation, the ACLU, ACORN, PDIA (Project on Death In America ), La Raza, and many more. For a more complete list, with  brief descriptions of the NGOs, go to DiscoverTheNetworks.org.

Poe continues, "Through his global web of  Open Society Institutes and Open Society Foundations, Soros has  spent 25 years recruiting, training, indoctrinating and installing a  network of loyal operatives in 50 countries, placing them in positions of influence and power in media, government, finance and  academia."


Without Soros' money, would the Saul Alinsky's Chicago machine still be rolling? Would SEIU, ACORN, and La Raza still be pursuing their nefarious activities? Would Big Money and lobbyists still be corrupting government? Would our college campuses still be retirement homes for 1960s radicals?

America stands at the brink of an abyss, and that fact is directly attributable to Soros. Soros has vigorously, cleverly, and insidiously planned the ruination of America and his puppet, Barack Obama is leading the way.


The words of Patrick Henry are apropos: "Is life so dear, or peace so sweet, as to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery? Forbid it, almighty God! I know not what course others may take, but as for me, give me liberty, or give me death!"

Obama's agenda: Overwhelm the system

Wayne Allyn Root 6/6/2010 Source ….. Rahm Emanuel cynically said, "You never want a crisis to go to waste." It is now becoming clear that the crisis he was referring to is Barack Obama's presidency. Obama is no fool. He is not incompetent. To the contrary, he is brilliant. He knows exactly what he's doing. [...]

SOROS: No, not at all. Not at all, I  rather enjoyed it.


KROFT: No feelings of  guilt?

SOROS: No, only feelings of absolute  power.


In his article, Muravchik describes how Soros  has admitted to having carried some rather "potent messianic fantasies with me from childhood, which I felt I had to control, otherwise they might get me in trouble." Be that as it may. After WWII, Soros attended the London School of Economics, where he fell  under the thrall of fellow atheist and Hungarian, Karl Popper,  one of his professors. Popper was a mentor to Soros until Popper's  death in 1994. Two of Popper's most influential teachings concerned  "the open society," and Fallibilism.


Fallibilism is the philosophical doctrine that all claims of knowledge could, in principle, be mistaken. (Then again, I could be wrong about that.)   The "open society" basically refers to a "test and evaluate"  approach to social engineering. Regarding "open society" Roy Childs writes, "Since the Second World War, most of the Western democracies have followed Popper's advice about piecemeal social  engineering and democratic social reform, and it has gotten them into a grand mess."


In 1956 Soros moved to New York City, where he worked on Wall Street, and started amassing his  fortune. He specialized in hedge funds and currency speculation.  Soros is absolutely ruthless, amoral, and clever in his business dealings, and quickly made his fortune. By the 1980s he was well on  his way to becoming the global powerhouse that he is today.


In an article Kyle-Anne Shiver wrote for "The American Thinker" she says, "Soros made his first billion in 1992 by shorting  the British pound with leveraged billions in financial bets, and became known as the man who broke the Bank of England . He broke it on the backs of hard-working British citizens who immediately saw their homes severely devalued and their life savings cut drastically, almost overnight."

In 1994 Soros crowed in "The New Republic ," that "the former Soviet Empire is now called the Soros Empire." The Russia-gate scandal in 1999, which almost collapsed the Russian economy, was labeled by Rep. Jim Leach, then head of the House Banking Committee, to be "one of the greatest social robberies in human history. "The "Soros Empire" indeed. In 1997 Soros almost destroyed the economies of Thailand and Malaysia .  At the time, Malaysia 's Prime Minister, Mahathir Mohammad, called  Soros "a villain, and a moron." Thai activist Weng Tojirakarn said, "We regard George Soros as a kind of Dracula. He sucks the  blood from the people."


The website Greek National  Pride reports, "Soros was part of the full court press that dismantled Yugoslavia and caused trouble in Georgia , Ukraine and Myanmar [Burma] Calling himself a philanthropist, Soros' role is to tighten the ideological stranglehold of globalization and the New World Order while promoting his own financial gain. He is without conscience; a capitalist who functions with absolute amorality."


France has upheld an earlier conviction  against Soros, for felony insider trading. Soros was fined 2.9 million dollars. Recently, his native Hungary fined Soros 2.2  million dollars for "illegal market manipulation." Elizabeth Crum  writes that the Hungarian economy has been in a state of transition as the country seeks to become more financially stable and westernized. Soros deliberately driving down the share price of its largest bank put Hungary's economy into a wicked tailspin, one from which it is still trying to recover.


My point here is that Soros is a planetary parasite. His grasp, greed, and gluttony have a global reach.  But what about America ? Soros told Australia 's  national newspaper "The Australian." " America , as the centre of  the globalised financial markets, was sucking up the savings of the world. This is now over. The game is out," he said, adding that the time has come for "a very serious adjustment" in American's consumption habits.  He implied that he was the one with the  power to bring this about."

Soros: "World financial crisis was "stimulating" and "in a way, the culmination of my life's work."

Obama has recently promised 10 billion of our tax dollars to Brazil , in order to give them a leg-up in  expanding their offshore oil fields. Obama's largesse towards Brazil came shortly after his political financial backer, George Soros, invested heavily in Brazilian oil (Pet rob ras).


Tait Trussel writes, "The Pet rob ras loan may be a windfall for Soros and Brazil , but it is a bad deal for the U. S. The American Petroleum Institute estimates that oil exploration in the U S could create 160,000 new, well-paying jobs, as well as $1.7 trillion in revenues to federal, state, and local governments, all while fostering greater energy security and independence."

A blog you might want to keep an eye on is SorosWatch. com. Their mission: "This blog is dedicated to all who have suffered due to the ruthless financial  pursuits of George Soros. Your stories are many and varied, but the theme is the same: the destructive power of greed without  conscience. We pledge to tirelessly watch Soros wherever he goes and to print the truth in the hope that he will one day be made to stop  preying upon the world's poor, that justice will be served."

Back to America . Soros has been actively working to destroy America from the inside out for some years now. People have been warning us. Two years ago, news sources reported that "Soros [is] an extremist who wants open borders, a one-world foreign policy, legalized drugs, euthanasia, and on and on. This is off-the-chart dangerous."\ In 1997 Rachel Ehrenfeld wrote, "Soros uses his philanthropy to change or more accurately deconstruct the moral values and attitudes of the  Western world, and particularly of the American people. His "open society" is not about freedom; it is about license. His vision rejects the notion of ordered liberty, in favor of a PROGRESSIVE ideology of rights and entitlements."

Perhaps the most important of these "whistle blowers" are David Horowitz and Richard Poe. Their book "The Shadow Party" outlines in detail how Soros hijacked the Democratic Party, and now owns it lock, stock, and barrel. Soros has been packing the Democratic Party with radicals, and ousting moderate Democrats for years. The Shadow Party became the Shadow Government, which recently became the Obama Administration.

Discover The Networks. org  (another good source) writes, "By his [Soros'] own admission, he  helped engineer coups in Slovakia , Croatia , Georgia , and  Yugoslavia . When Soros targets a country for "regime change," he begins by creating a  shadow government, a fully formed government-in-exile, ready to  assume power when the opportunity arises. The Shadow Party he has built in America greatly resembles those he has created in other  countries prior to instigating a coup."

November  2008 edition of the German magazine "Der Spiegel," in which Soros  gives his opinion on what the next POTUS (President of the U. S. )  should do after taking office. "I think we need a large stimulus package." Soros thought that around 600 billion would be about right. Soros also said that "I think Obama presents us a great opportunity to finally deal with global warming and energy dependence.  The U. S. needs a cap and trade system with  auctioning of licenses for emissions rights."


Although Soros doesn't (yet) own  the Republican Party, like he does the Democrats, make no mistake, his tentacles are spread throughout the Republican Party as well.

Soros is a partner in the Carlyle Group where he has invested more than 100 million dollars. According to an article by "The Baltimore Chronicle's" Alice Cherbonnier, the Carlye  Group is run by "a veritable who's who of former Republican leaders," from CIA man Frank Carlucci, to CIA head and ex-President George Bush, Sr.


In late 2006, Soros  bought about 2 million shares of Halliburton, Dick Cheney's old stomping grounds. When the Democrats and Republicans held their conventions in 2000, Soros held Shadow Party conventions in the same  cities, at the same time. In 2008, Soros donated $5,000,000,000 ( that's Five Billion ) to the  Democratic National Committee, DNC, to insure Obama's win and wins  for many other Alinsky trained Radical Rules Anti-American  Socialist. George has been contributing a $ billion plus to the DNC since Clinton came on the scene.


Soros has dirtied both sides of the aisle, trust me. And if that weren't  bad enough, he has long held connections with the CIA. And I mustn't forget to mention  Soros' involvement with the MSM (Main Stream Media), the  entertainment industry (e. g. he owns 2.6 million shares of Time  Warner), and the various political advertising organizations he  funnels millions to. In short, George Soros controls or influences most of the MSM.  Little wonder they ignore the TEA PARTY, Soro's NEMESIS.

As Matthew Vadum writes, "The liberal billionaire-turned-philanthropist has been buying up media  properties for years in order to drive home his message to the American public that they are too materialistic, too wasteful, too selfish, and too stupid to decide for themselves how to run their own lives."


Richard Poe writes, "Soros' private philanthropy, totaling nearly $5 billion, continues undermining America 's traditional Western   values. His giving has provided funding of abortion rights, atheism,  drug legalization, sex education, euthanasia, feminism, gun control,  globalization, mass immigration, gay marriage and other radical experiments in social engineering."

Some of the many NGOs (Non-Government Organizations) that Soros funds with his billions are: MoveOn. org, the Apollo Alliance , Media Matters for America , the Tides Foundation, the ACLU, ACORN, PDIA (Project on Death In America ), La Raza, and many more. For a more complete list, with  brief descriptions of the NGOs, go to DiscoverTheNetworks.org.

Poe continues, "Through his global web of  Open Society Institutes and Open Society Foundations, Soros has  spent 25 years recruiting, training, indoctrinating and installing a  network of loyal operatives in 50 countries, placing them in positions of influence and power in media, government, finance and  academia."


Without Soros' money, would the Saul Alinsky's Chicago machine still be rolling? Would SEIU, ACORN, and La Raza still be pursuing their nefarious activities? Would Big Money and lobbyists still be corrupting government? Would our college campuses still be retirement homes for 1960s radicals?

America stands at the brink of an abyss, and that fact is directly attributable to Soros. Soros has vigorously, cleverly, and insidiously planned the ruination of America and his puppet, Barack Obama is leading the way.


The words of Patrick Henry are apropos: "Is life so dear, or peace so sweet, as to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery? Forbid it, almighty God! I know not what course others may take, but as for me, give me liberty, or give me death!"
