Thank you so much. Unfortunately your post will fall on mostly deaf ears. Soros is the single most important private philanthropist in the world today. He has spent his fortune fighting totalitarian governments and promoting self-determination and freedom. He has founded Universities and spent tremendous amounts of money on behalf of refugees and those impacted by war, and put himself at risk to do it. He is a true hero. In doing these things he has made himself a target for every kook and totalitarian government. He has no interest in responding to these absurd attacks. And why should he have to? They are nonsense! The annual reports of the Open Society Foundations are available on the internet for anyone interested in truth. Soros's selfless contributions to humanity are described in a number of books. It is a common mistake to believe that Soros approves of everything groups that received support have done. Soros in not involved in the day to day operations of the Foundations. The Foundations support what they believe are worthy causes according to their guidelines, and then step back. A small number of these projects turn out to be ill advised, and when they do, support is terminated. Billions are involved, and why someone would think that Soros has time to micro manage is beyond me , and certainly naive.
Only the extreme left deemed Jeff Sessions to be too racist to be a judge. You mean the Jeff Sessions defended by members of MLK's family.
He doesn't back them up with complete facts. Don't be fooled. Get the complete facts. For example, we all know that Soros was convicted of insider trading in France regarding his investment in Société Générale. But how many know that he was acquitted well before he was convicted. And how many know of the politics involved? See a very thorough Wiki article on this subject if you are interested in the complete information. That screwball's attack on Soros, likely connected to BSGR, is loaded with incomplete facts intended to mislead.
Piezoe just argued that Soros was cleared of insider trading... by a fricken human rights court. This would be really really funny... that piezoe was telling us not to be fooled... if Piezoe had not become so deceptive in so many other posts. (Well its still funny.) footnote 64... Smith, Heather (October 4, 2011). "Soros Insider-Trading Conviction Reviewed by Human Rights Court". Bloomberg Businessweek. Retrieved October 12, 2011. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/George_Soros whereas Piezoe's favorite paper... does not mention such stupidity. http://www.nytimes.com/2002/12/21/b...-in-france-on-charges-of-insider-trading.html After a 14-year investigation, a French court today convicted the American financier George Soros of insider trading and fined him 2.2 million euros ($2.3 million), the amount prosecutors said he had profited from the trading. Mr. Soros, who was not present in the courtroom, called the verdict unfounded and said he would appeal. Mr. Soros, chairman and president of Soros Fund Management, is one of the world's richest fund managers, and probably its most famous. He is best known for making huge and very successful speculative bets in currency markets, and for his extensive philanthropy, most notably in countries of Eastern Europe. http://www.nytimes.com/2006/06/14/business/worldbusiness/14iht-soros.1974397.html PARIS — The highest court in France on Wednesday rejected a bid by George Soros, the billionaire investor, to overturn a conviction for insider trading in a case dating back nearly 20 years, leaving the first blemish on his five-decade investing career.
There's this: "A report issued today by the inspector general of the Department of Justice shows the Civil Rights Division of one of the most powerful organizations in the federal government has widespread hostility to protecting the civil rights of whites." Read more at http://www.wnd.com/2013/03/new-report-doj-hostile-to-civil-rights-for-whites/#GAHIfcXJ6bwSv4tO.99 yet the leftist brain thinks Adams is a conspiracy theorist for agreeing with the Inspector General's report under Obama.
Members or the 1 conservative MLK family member who isn't his wife or child who loves being on fox news and is never seen with the rest of family? Alveda King does not represent The MLK legacy and her views are opposite of his wife and children.
I have been quite curious why many people, especially when referring to certain website, constantly criticising/ attacking Soros for his wrong stance/doing. He is not god, or holy man. We all know that. Any similar person of similar background (such as hedge fund) spending serious money to support a preferred political party should be an adequate and hourable thing to do in any democratic society, imo. That would be the main driving force for minimising potential corruption, and maximising that people's voices can be heard broadly and openly. Opposition voices are always important to democracy! Always! Soros' opposition perhaps should have thanked him for his acts, rather than critically critising him almost daily on various unlimited issues that can be supplied by particular sources. I did read a few of Soros' books. They were OK. Nothing sinister at all. His challenges to having an open society for liberty purpose would be invaluable. imo How many other hedge fund guys wrote books/theses about macroeconomics, social-political theory, etc. to contribute to the society their personal knowledge and econ-political conviction gained through their experience in capital markets investment and global macro trading? I don't know. Having earned so much negative news daily from political oppositions, Soros must have done something good, very good, I would guess. Just 2 cents.
