Having promised to “spend whatever it takes” to defeat George W. Bush, billionaire philanthropist, George Soros said he felt like retiring to a monastery after the President’s re-election.
Back home the two Georges may be deadly enemies, but outside America the missionaries of Soros’s lavishly funded “Open Society” foundations march in parallel columns with the Bush administration. Domestic culture wars don’t stop America’s big two foreign policy players presenting a united front abroad when it comes to promoting friends and punishing foes.
A year ago, the two Georges jointly helped topple Georgia’s president Eduard Shevardnadze by putting financial muscle and organisational metal behind his opponents. Ukraine is the latest country to feel the full force of the two Georges’ displeasure.
George Bush’s representatives have denounced alleged election fraud there.
