GOP Will Gladly Take Rush If Dems Will Claim Soros

Now ask yourself this question: Who most readily embodies and embraces that agenda? Why, it is none other than George Soros, everyone's favorite paranoid Hungarian billionaire, who uses his vast wealth -- gained mostly from speculating on and (some say) manipulation of currency markets around the world -- to fund left-wing causes like Air America, Media Matters and MoveOn.org.
Soros is a behind-the-scenes despot. He is an evil man who has used his wealth to further all the causes the Democrat Party holds dear.
He was also a Nazi sympathizer. In his autobiography, entitled "Soros on Soros," he blithely describes how as a teenager he helped cart off the possessions of Hungarian Jews after they were sent to concentration camps. Soros wrote that this never bothered him, even though his father was Jewish and he grew up in a Jewish home. He says he has no regrets for his actions. "Somebody would have done it," he wrote.
Oh yeah, the GOP will take Rush Limbaugh in a heartbeat if the Dems will just claim this guy.
