Well, since Soros is a fascist, and lefties think fascists are rightwing, I’ll give Mitchell credit for being consistent…

“Begs the question” does not mean “raises the question.” It means “to assume what you are trying to prove.”

She just didn’t get to finish her thought. It makes sense when she is allowed to complete her thought. What she meant to say was “I wouldn’t characterize George Soros as left wing, if I wanted to continue as a journalist in this country.”

Yep, you’re right texmom. She sure as heck isn’t going to say anything about George Soros.

OT..

“you ain’t seen nothin’ yet!” ~ B Hussein O

[There have been some crazy actions to come from Obama and his advisors regarding race. Remember when, not knowing ANY of the facts regarding an incident between a white police officer and a black professor, Obama said on national television that the officer acted "stupidly?" Or how about Obama's 20-year affiliation with a pastor who blasts America and advocates racial division?

Well, now I think I've seen it all. Obama's Justice Department has ruled against the actions of the town of Kinston, North Carolina. What did this town do that was so terrible? The residents voted overwhelmingly to eliminate partisan elections for mayor and city council members. The Justice Department stepped in and said, "Whoa! Wait just a second!" According to the Justice Department, blacks in Kinston must have the Democrat Party in order to elect their "candidate of choice." How insulting! Basically, what Obama's team is saying is that blacks will only vote for Democrats, and without the party label, blacks can't figure out for themselves which candidate will get their vote. This is not only a slap in the face of the voters, but it continues Obama's efforts to divide people along racial lines rather than bring them together.]

Back up and observe the big picture. So many people are telling you who and what they are, Media,WH, et al. Ya’ll ought to be worried, dangerous people in places of power. This is a turning point in history, which way it goes depends upon who is more dedicated to the cause.

Aren’t you all so glad that we have ‘legitimate’ news outlets to cover the story without injecting their ‘perspective’ — unlike Fox News? So glad that Rahm pointed out the difference so we could be fully informed.

Well, since Soros is a fascist, and lefties think fascists are rightwing, I’ll give Mitchell credit for being consistent…

He was a fascist only during WW2, when he sold out his fellow jews to the germans so that they could be transported to the camps.

After WW2, however, soros worked for the communists as a snitch and had plenty of his fellow Hungarians arrested and sent to the gulag.
Then, in the Hungarian Revolution of 1956, soros was busy turning in his countrymen to the russians – and running around Budapest robbing art galleries, banks and jewelry stores.
After the revolution was quashed (with his help as a turncoat), soros “escaped to the West (with the assistance of his russian masters) with his horde of stolen money, jewels and art.

Soros is nothing but an amoral piece of barbage who will sell out or destroy anyone for a few dollars or to ensure his own safety.
With all that he’s done and doing, I’d bet that one of his largest expenditures is on security – for all the good it’ll do him.

Solaratov

should be “…amoral piece of GARBAGE…”

Additionally, soros does favor a communist-style of government, because he believes in subjegating and ruling people.
Democracy is anathema to soros. People are too hard to control and enslave under Democracy (or in a Republic).

Same idiot liberal thinking as the dumb boxes from “The [Liberal] View” characterizing the drugging and subsequent rape of a child “not rape-rape”.

They don’t get it.

At all.

“He was a fascist only during WW2…”

I beg to differ. That he worked for authoritarian thugs who called themselves socialists doesn’t change his underlying nature.

[Gibbs: ABC -

Tapper: ABC. MSNBC. Univision. I mean how are they any different?

Gibbs: You and I should watch sometime around 9 o’clock tonight. Or 5 o’clock this afternoon.

Tapper: I’m not talking about their opinion programming or issues you have with certain reports. I’m talking about saying thousands of individuals who work for a media organization, do not work for a “news organization” -- why is that appropriate for the White House to say?

Gibbs: That’s our opinion.]
