Bush takes on Soros: Fund-raising e-mail urges support to counter billionaire's campaign
The campaign to re-elect President George W. Bush has taken aim at his 10th rival in the race – non-candidate George Soros.Let's see. A billionaire currency speculator who thinks 9-11 was no big deal and says he wants to be known as the man who brought down the government of President Bush. That ought to energize the troops. On the other hand, FDR and Truman must be spnning in their graves over what the Democrat party has become.
Staffers fired off an e-mail to Republican supporters in an effort to counter the billionaire-financier's campaign to oust the incumbent, reports the Independent.
The article also has a nice summary of Blofeld's activities:
WorldNetDaily reported the Hungarian-born philanthropist seeks to raise up to $75 million and has pledged more than $15 million of his own money to prevent Bush from staying in the White House.Nice to see that he's bringing the kid into the family business. Hmm, maybe they'll run some James Bond films that week too.
He committed an unprecedented $10 million to "Americans Coming Together," or ACT, which plans to mobilize voters in 17 states regarded as battlegrounds in the 2004 election.
WorldNetDaily reported Soros also pledged up to $5 million to mobilize anti-Bush activists and voters online. He and other wealthy donors are financing the Internet political-mobilization project MoveOn.org, founded by a California millionaire in 1998 to defend President Clinton from impeachment.
As part of its "down with Bush" campaign, the group recently launched a competition to find the best 30-second television spot that highlights perceived Bush failures. The winning spot is targeted to air during the week of Bush's State of the Union address. The Independent reports the "Bush in 30 Seconds" competition is partly run by Soros's son, Jonathan Soros.
Soros distributes $400 million annually through his Open Society Institute.The Open Society Institute is the SPECTRE front operation with tentacles around the world. Hmm, maybe I can get a franchise!
