Thanks for those figures, Dave. So Democrat congressman are richer than GOP across the aisle, and Democratic rich come with more dollars to the aid of their party. They make more and give more. I wonder why.

There's nothing villainous of Koch or anyone giving to both sides of issues or the political system. It's what businessmen do. They say it keeps the democratic system balanced, and it's also a license to do business without fearing the outcome of elections.

I don't know what's democratic about having gaggles of millionaires representing our interests. Canada had the most democratic House of Commons in living memory when no one gave conservative John Diefenbaker, a prairie populist and respected criminal lawyer, a hope of winning an election.

Few wanted to run for the party, the usual lawyers wouldn't come near it, and the result of his winning the federal election was the biggest raft of commoners ever in the House of Commons. I covered the election and Diefenbaker in and out of office for years. Strong believer in human rights.

PS---I remember one time party people got the wrong music for his tumultuous entrance to an Ontario meeting: the hymn "Amazing Grace." It was sung at a funeral I attended yesterday.

Leave it to the King to pretend not to recognize the biggest socialist in the world, George Soros.....that leaves an opportunity to defend a fellow socialist.
George Soros: socialist, biggest donor to extreme far left organizations and extreme far left Democratic politicians, meddles in the economy of countries in order to profit from it, vehemently anti-gun, anti-second amendment elitist, primarily responsible(through his anti-gun pit bull Rebecca Peters)for England and Australia's ridiculous gun laws, and probably the biggest danger to freedom in any country he pours money into.
But, what do you expect from someone who, as a teenager, aided the Nazis in exposing and rounding up Jews? Soros is Jewish, but was allowed to keep the possessions of any Jewish people he turned in to the Nazis. That he was not considered a war criminal was probably due to his age and that the facts did not come out until many years later when he admitted to his actions. Too bad the Mossad don't have him on their hit list.

Thanks Gary for the elaboration:
He is one guy that IMO should be shot on sight. A thoroughly disgusting individual on several levels.
I for one am still surprised the Israelis haven't sent out a hit squad after him.
Brown is on my ignore list so I have no idea what he has said specifically but I'll bet it's the usual B. S we've come to expect from him.

Gary, I didn't have the slightest idea of whose face. Socialism is as common as rain throughout the world, practised widely in most countries including the US, recognized as a legal party with members in the tens of millions.

Right now I'm more concerned about the position of members who advocate that Soros be shot on sight, particularly in a country with world attention from gun violence and history of assassinations.

If I were to post a message calling for the killing of anyone, most particularly on an international site such as this one, I'd expect a visit from a Mountie within a day. Making targets of socialists is the same as jihadists targeting Christians.

It would be a service to Jim to pass it along. And a caution to our moderator.

I guess you didn't have a chance to read the entire resume that Gary took the time to pass along. Run of the mill, eh. Wouldn't it make a little sense to be concerned about your own position. If not, take a minute, I'm interested, what makes the face of evil so acceptable to you.

King,
I have to throw the BS flag on that comment. For someone who is well educated, well read and involved in local , national and international politics and issues. to say you don't recognize George Soros is a tough one to swallow.
The same George Soros who funds Moveon.org, the Tides Foundation,
For Soros, whose net worth is $20 billion according to Forbes

From the UK Telegraph:
Hungarian-born Soros, who established one of the first hedge funds in 1969 and is probably best known for famously betting against the British pound in 1992. That little currency fiasco that almost destroyed the British monetary system and their economy.

Just a swell guy, a vanguard for the down trodden, purely altruistic motivation.

A man of your claimed intelligence does not recognize or know who George Soros is? Give..me..a..break, King.
Being on the Mossad hit list also means you are brought in to stand trial for war crimes against the Jewish people. I don't see in my post where I advocated the killing of anyone. As far as a mountie, Texas Ranger, or federal law officer showing up at my door, that's the difference between Canada and here. Radical groups in the U.S. have regularly called for the killing of police and radical leftists have advocated the killing of conservatives..do you have an opinion on that? PETA members sent death threats to me for trapping feral cats, but none of those spineless psychos had law enforcement drop by to talk about it, even though I reported it.
Nice try on inferring Dave should get involved in this post; that's a typical liberal attempt to stifle any opinion contrary to yours.
I will give you credit for one thought...socialism has been widely practiced in many countries, but you conveniently (in the liberal style) left out the fact it has been an abject failure in every country that instilled it. Just ask any Russian, Cuban, Venezuelan, etc.
Answer this question: if America has so many faults, is so unjust, has so much inequality of wealth, is so racist and unfair, why are the liberal socialists(like you)so eager for everyone in the world to be granted free entry and citizenship to this socially backward country?
For the votes; so the dem/lib/socialists can stay elected and retain power. It's why Soros and socialists like him pour so much money into countries under the guise of "progressive". It is also why Soros is the main force behind the UN Small Arms Trade Treaty and has been since Bush the younger's first term in office. He finally managed to finance a president who would sign it, and made some 18 visits to the White House before the most transparent administration in history stopped releasing the WH log of visitors. If Soros is that adamant about the UN treaty, he has a plan for making money or achieving power or influence from it.
Slavery isn't dead; the socialists just try to sell it in a dressed up package called "progress".

As I said in earlier post, I thought it could be William F. Buckley Jr. George Soros I know as well as any other person interested in what's he's doing but I think the last I saw of his face was a sketch in the New York Review of Books. It bore no resemblance to The Face of True Evil posted here.

I am not an apologist for anything he's done. Making a billion on a British treasury mistake is small change, however, compared to what New York financiers did to America and overseas in the deepest recession of which the world is barely in half-recovery, and Big Oil threatening another with the world awash in oil.

As for altruism---always a suspect word for me---he is said to have contributed $7 billion to education, health and other "progressive" causes. Conservative philanthropists are generous with their money as well. Neither should be ridiculed for their actions, and it abhorrent to me that members incite to killing on sight another American for doing "disgusting" things.
