I believe in getting most money out of politics, starting with big corporate donors, and including big PAC-givers like Soros. Remember, Soros only donated because Bushies were already raking in the corporate dough. In 2004 the GOP was way-way ahead of the DEms and it wasn't fair.

Soros put his money where his mouth was and we're grateful he did. Also, as a billionaire, he obviously wasn't being selfish with his giving. As a billionaire he had the most to lose by defeating Bush and having the rich taxed back at Clintonian levels. So don't attack Soros. He was being quite altruistic. It's the special interests buying legislation from Bush and Delay who are the culprits.

I also believe political ads should have to follow the same rules commercials do, truth in advertising. That would outlaw smear campaigns like Rove's smearvets waged. 100% BS, as were all of Bush's negative ads. Extremely misleading.

>Hence the reason why AS won't say a word about George Soros, the man who made billions on currency speculation.

Well, if he's doing that, he's doing something worthwhile with his money, no? ;)
