Barbara Comstock on CNN just came very cloe to saying
that there's a vast left wing conspiracy against the president. Spearheaded by Soros. The guest on the left even laughed about that. Oh, let me hold my side!!!!

1. They need to make up their minds--
are people on the left in disarray and without a message? Or, are we really organized and well funded? They can't have it both ways. Someone needs to ask one of these idiots about this.

12. I received a Bush-Cheney 2004 mailing.
....asking me for money and complaining about how well-financed their opponents were. They even mentioned Soros by name!

Bush has an obscene amount of money, but I imagine one of the GOP talking points is to bring up the billionaire George Soros and complain about how the wealthy elites are attacking Bush (!). It's a typical right-wing technique of the past years (and even of the distant past) -- claim victimhood, claim "regular guy" status, and keep working behind the scenes to amass power.

3. More projection from the right
I'm always amazed at the indignation when the left trumps them at their own game.

Poor babies...

"Bob is part of a group (gets the name wrong), that George Soros, a virulent opponent of the president, is funding. This is all part of a big, coordinated, partisan attack, you saw them come out with the the center came out with a big attack against the president; they're doing it every day. This is part of the democratic machine."

9. Why is the Fright Wing so up in arms about Soros?
Everywhere I read, it seems I hear a mention of how Soros is funding the Democrats in an attempt to oust Bush... nowhere is mentioned the likes of Richard Mellon Scaife (somebody please tell me how "Scaife" is pronounced, please!), William Simon, the Coors family, Pat Robertson, the guy that heads Northwestern Mutual, etc have all been funding similar Reich Wing outlets for 30 years now to the tune of $2.5 to $3.5 BILLION dollars - which is 167 to 233 times Soros' contribution of $15 million.

13. who was that guy on with her? I really liked him!
He did a fantastic job, very cool head, very damning without any shred of emotional partisan-like bs.

I want to see more of him.
