Soros the Master, B.H. Obama the Emperor?

Soros Flunky Runs Obama’s Pro-U.N. Policy

AIM Column | By Cliff Kincaid | January 11, 2009

The Berger associate, Eric. P. Schwartz, is the executive director of the U.S. Connect Fund and represents several liberal and leftist foundations, including and most notably the Open Society Institute of financial hedge-fund operator George Soros. Soros is considered by some the virtual owner of the Democratic Party, having contributed lavishly to the party, its causes and candidates, including Obama. He personally contributed $50,000, the maximum allowed, to the Obama inauguration....

Soros, who backed Obama during the presidential campaign, is a well-known advocate of a “New World Order” in which the U.S. refuses to act unilaterally in its own interests but works through international organizations such as the U.N. on foreign policy matters. Critics note that such an approach gives the U.N. and other nations a veto over what the U.S. can do militarily.

A convicted inside trader whose currency manipulations have been known to threaten national governments and currencies, he testified on November 13, 2008, before the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform about the risks posed by the hedge funds that he and other billionaires operate. In addition to the Democratic Party, his financial fingerprints are all over leftist, “progressive” and news media organizations.

The Connect U.S. Fund is funded by Soros’s Open Society Institute and other liberal foundations and provides grants to pro-U.N. groups around the country. These groups, which provide the appearance of public support for more U.S. involvement in the U.N., were involved in a January 10 national conference call to promote a “Responsible U. S. Global Engagement” agenda for the Obama Administration. They are releasing a letter to Obama this week urging close cooperation with the U.N. on such issues as human rights, climate change, arms control and foreign aid.

This is bound to find a favorable response, since the co-chair of the Obama-Biden Transition Project, John Podesta, a former Clinton chief of staff, comes from another Soros-funded group, the Center for American Progress.

Soros, Sandy Burgler, John Podesta, Citigroup, and Swartz. (Wonder if Schwartz is a relative of Soros since his name was originally Schwartz). If these are some of the associates of BHO, Emperor Elect, just imagine the power of Master Soros when BHO becomes the Designated Emperor, legal or not.

While Soros contributed $50,000, his family contributed over $250,000 combined.

The Great America we know today is on the verge of becoming another socialist society which may never recover from the society Master Soros has created.

We can only pray that the Emperor gets some clothes.

God Bless America.

Obama/Soros New Stimulus Plan

Soros says U.S. needs billions more in aid measures

BERLIN (Reuters) - The U.S. economy needs additional support measures of between $300 billion and $600 billion to help it withstand the financial crisis, U.S. billionaire investor George Soros was quoted as saying by a German weekly.

Soros, one of the world's first and best-known hedge fund managers, told Der Spiegel magazine the United States needed an infrastructure programme, as well as a large economic stimulus package to provide its cities and states with sufficient cash.

Obama Warns On Economy: Works On Stimulus Plan

The package is expected to include middle-class tax cuts and billions of dollars for public works projects, such as the construction of roads, bridges and mass transit.

Observe the following: Soros determines the plan for Obama and Congress to implement. This is the "change" promised in the 2008 election and many of YOU endorsed. The 2008 election was run, very successful I might add, the same way.

The question ahead is, will Soros run the U.S. Government as good as he runs an election, and will Socialism (change) be what you thought it was? The Socialist governmental organizations will soon be in place, if they are not already.

How many willing slaves does it take to reelect the rulers? Keep in mind, elections don't have to be honest and rules will be changed.

Some more results of the 2008 election:

  • Forget the Constitution
  • Eliminate the Middle Class
More detailed results to be posted later.

Chairman Soros and President Elect Obama

Soros-Funded Democratic Idea Factory Becomes Obama Policy Font
Bloomberg.com: News

By Edwin Chen

Thanks in part to funding from benefactors such as billionaire George Soros, the Center for American Progress has become in just five years an intellectual wellspring for Democratic policy proposals, including many that are shaping the agenda of the new Obama administration....

CAP's president and founder, John Podesta, 59, former chief of staff to President Bill Clinton, is one of three people running the transition team for president-elect Barack Obama, 47. A squadron of CAP experts is working with them....

Some of the group's recommendations already have been adopted by the president-elect.

Withdrawal of Troops

These include the center's call for a gradual withdrawal of U.S. troops from Iraq and a buildup of forces in Afghanistan, a plan for universal health coverage through employer plans and proposals to create purchasing pools that allow small businesses to spread the cost among a larger group of workers. Obama has endorsed much of a CAP plan to create ``green jobs'' linked to alleviating global climate change.

CAP also is advocating the creation of a ``National Energy Council'' headed by an official with the stature of the national security adviser and who would be charged with ``transforming the energy base'' of the U.S. In addition, CAP urges the creation of a White House ``office of social entrepreneurship'' to spur new ideas for addressing social problems.

To help promote its ideas, CAP employs 11 full-time bloggers who contribute to two Web sites, ThinkProgress and the Wonk Room; others prepare daily feeds for radio stations. The center's policy briefings are standing-room only, packed with lobbyists, advocacy-group representatives and reporters looking for insights on where the Obama administration is headed....

``Others strive to be objective, we don't,'' said Jennifer Palmieri, CAP's vice president for communications.

Podesta likes to say, ``we're not a think tank, we're an action tank,'' said Dan Weiss, an environmental activist who joined CAP last year.

CAP isn't the only Democratic-leaning research organization in Washington with enhanced cachet after Obama's election.

The 92-year-old Brookings Institution, for example, has advisers in Obama's inner circle, including economist Jason Furman and foreign-policy expert Susan Rice. Others are working either part-time or full-time in the Obama transition....

Influence

Yet CAP may be the most influential. In addition to Podesta, at least 10 other CAP experts are advising the incoming administration, including Melody Barnes, the center's executive vice president for policy who co-chairs the agency-review working group and Cassandra Butts, the senior vice president for domestic policy, who is now a senior transition staffer.

Note: This isn't the best government money can buy, but it certainly is the most dangerous government money can buy.

"Secondary" or "Indirect" Affiliates of the George Soros Network

By Discover The Networks
July 2007


In addition to those organizations ("primary" or "direct" affiliates) that are funded directly by George Soros and his Open Society Institute (OSI), there are also numerous "secondary" or "indirect" affiliates of the Soros network. These include organizations which do not receive direct funding from Soros and OSI, but which are funded by one or more organizations that do. These secondary affiliates also include organizations that work collaboratively or synergistically with Soros-funded groups. Among these secondary affiliates are the following:

  • Air America Radio: Funded by Democracy Alliance, which is heavily bankrolled by Soros, this radio station was created to advance the cause of the Democratic Party and the political Left.

  • Catalist: Headed by Soros ally Harold Ickes, this political consultancy seeks "to help progressive organizations realize measurable increases in civic participation and electoral success by building and operating a robust national voter database of every voting-age American." Toward this end, it helps leftist organizations conduct more effective get-out-the-vote drives and targeted political advertising.

  • Center for Progressive Leadership: Funded by the Soros-bankrolled Democracy Alliance, this anti-capitalist organization is dedicated to training future leftist political leaders.

  • Media Matters for America: Seeking to "systematically monitor [the media] for conservative misinformation" and to discredit anything that "forwards the conservative agenda," this group, which has intimate ties to Hillary Clinton, works very closely with the Soros-backed Center for American Progress. It is heavily funded by Democracy Alliance, of which Soros is a major financier.

  • Moving Ideas Network: This coalition of more than 250 leftwing activist groups is a partner organization of the Soros-backed Center for American Progress. Promoting the candidacy of leftwing politicians, the Moving Ideas Network was originally a project of the Soros-backed American Prospect and, as such, received indirect funding from the Open Society Institute. In early 2006, The American Prospect relinquished control of the Moving Ideas Network

  • New Organizing Institute: Created by the Soros-funded MoveOn.org, this group "trains young, technology-enabled political organizers to work for progressive campaigns and organizations."

  • Schumann Center for Media and Democracy: PBS broadcaster and Schumann Center President Bill Moyers is a trustee of the Open Society Institute's Board of Directors. The Schumann Center shares many of OSI's agendas.

  • Service Employees International Union: The current President of SEIU is the former New Leftist Andrew Stern, who sat on the Executive Committee of the Soros-created America Coming Together.

  • Sierra Club: This organization's Executive Director, Carl Pope, co founded America Coming Together, in whose creation Soros played a major role.

  • Think Progress: This "project" of the American Progress Action Fund, which is a "sister advocacy organization" of the Soros-funded Center for American Progress and Campus Progress, seeks to transform "progressive ideas into policy through rapid response communications, legislative action, grassroots organizing and advocacy, and partnerships with other progressive leaders throughout the country and the world." Think Progress promotes an agenda identical to that of the left wing of the Democratic Party.

  • Vote for Change: Coordinated by the political action committee of the Soros-funded MoveOn.org, Vote for Change was a group of 41 musicians and bands that performed concerts in several key election "battleground" states during October 2004, to raise money in support of Democrat John Kerry's presidential bid.

  • Working Families Party: Created in 1998 to help push the Democratic Party toward the left, this front group for the Soros-funded ACORN functions as a political party that promotes ACORN-friendly candidates.

Fannie and Freddie collapse, Why now? Who profits or gains?

A Conspiracy or Conspiracy Theory?

By Online Sunday, October 26, 2008
-Roger King
Although, the Fannie and Freddie house of cards was sure to come crashing down, why did it happened only months before the election? Was it accidental or an orchestrated effort? Who profited and why? To get some background on this financial crisis read Fannie Mae & Freddie Mac Crash or look at the video Video: Subprime loans “affirmative action”.

Soros/Obama Transition Team

Soros-Funded Pair Running Obama Transition Team
Under the direction of John Podesta, a former White House chief of staff under Bill Clinton, the transition effort includes a dozen separate groups divided into different areas of responsibility, these officials said. One added that Cassandra Butts, a longtime associate of Obama, is in charge of the group dedicated to personnel for a new administration.
Podesta, of course, was in the Clinton administration and now runs the Center for American Progress, a leftwing group bought and paid for by America-hating scum George Soros.

Acorn Watch















George Soros & Obama in Soros's New York Home



MichelleMalkin has a great web site. In it she has Acorn Watch articles documenting some of the dealings of Acorn and it's sponsors.

As with most events in this election, Acorn's support, funding, organization, and activities are not believable. Click Acorn Watch to see more articles.

The following article from MichelleMalkin.com provides background to the connection:
The Democratic Party platform's hidden Soros Slush Fund

Excerpt
In practice, this Barack Obama brainchild would serve as a permanent, taxpayer-backed pipeline to Democrat partisan outfits masquerading as public-interest do-gooders. This George Soros Slush Fund would be political payback in spades. Obama owes much of his Chicago political success to financial support from radical, left-wing billionaire and leading “social entrepreneur” Soros. In June 2004, Soros threw a big fund-raiser at his New York home for Obama’s Illinois Senate campaign. Soros and family personally chipped in $60,000. In April 2007, Obama was back in New York for a deep-pocketed Manhattan fund-raising soiree, with Soros lurking in his shadow (yes, that’s him behind Obama grasping onto the stairs).

Fannie and Freddie-like 'Social Investment Fund'

Partnership with Civic Institutions exposes "The 'Hidden Soros Slush Fund'".

Malkin notes, correctly, that:

In practice, this Barack Obama brainchild would serve as a permanent, taxpayer-backed pipeline to Democrat partisan outfits masquerading as public-interest do-gooders. This George Soros Slush Fund would be political payback in spades. Obama owes much of his Chicago political success to financial support from radical, left-wing billionaire and leading “social entrepreneur” Soros.

You might note that although Obama proposed this Fannie-Freddie like social investment plan, McCain has not criticized the plan because he too had received money from Soros.

Finally Liberals may be exposed, and with any luck, held accountable.

Soros - Pelosi Connection

Letter: Obama-Pelosi push 'fascist economic model'

The connections continue per TCPalm: In 2007, Pelosi hired Onek as her chief counsel. Onek is also the chief adviser for the Open Society Institute, funded by the octopus Soros, whose tentacles extend all over Eastern Europe.

Rohatyn is one of Soros’ tentacles and serves as a major financial backer of Pelosi and is also another of her top economic advisers. He is also head of the Rohatyn-Rudman National Investment Corporation, a Soros holding.

Joseph Onek connection is further supported by Discoverthenetworks.org link and article By John Perazzo.

Who do you believe controls our government?

SEIU,Soros by Democracy 21

Someone mentioned the power of the SEIU. Democracy21 provides more detail in the Title Link about the SEIU and Soros Connection.

Team that with George Soros and what do you have? The Fund for America in 2008, ACT, and The Media Fund until they are converted from 527's to 501's which are harder track.

The same article discusses the Republican Party and their leaders. You can track these if you choose.

Hillary, Soros, Alinsky, and Rush

Hillary, Soros, Alinsky, and Rush by Kyle-Anne Shiver

What, or who, can you believe?

The Soros-Obama Connection

Another of
The Soros-Obama Connection from Little Green Footballs on May 29, 2008.

Maybe Obama's money is not from lobbyist but from wealthy hedge fund managers concealed as individuals??? Does Obama have the qualifications you want for President of the US? What has this man actually accomplished? Ask the Democrat Party for a list?

Please list any accomplishments you have. Dare to compare with other candidate.

Getting to know George Soros

The Hidden Soros Agenda
This 2004 article from Accuracy in Media by Cliff Kincaid is not so hidden anymore, but the power and connections have only grown.

Could both parties have lost their power to The Money of Power Investors?
