George W. Bush does not qualify to serve as our commander in chief," Soros

Soros Steps Up Efforts to Oust Bush

59 minutes ago

By EMILY FREDRIX, Associated Press Writer

WASHINGTON - He's donated some $18 million to organizations working to defeat President Bush (news - web sites). Now, billionaire George Soros is taking his campaign � and money � on the road.

The Hungarian-born activist will spend between $2 million and $3 million in the next month visiting a dozen cities, sending at least 2 million informational pamphlets to voters and placing ads in national and local newspapers.

"In spite of his Texas swagger, George W. Bush does not qualify to serve as our commander in chief," Soros said Tuesday at a news conference.

1. I like this Soros guy. I'd like to sit down and

have a beer with him sometime. Or maybe champagne, I don't know.

2. Getting his money's worth.

I absolutely love this guys money and his drive, but I just can't see how this guy making speeches on the campaign trail can be a good thing. He's seems quite angry and negative. It seems like the money would be better spent using local public servants to win the hearts and minds of local swing voters.

5. To bad that is what the republicans want you to believe

They are already calling this guy crazy and unamerican. They've already started to say he is not patriotic. I think I rather have this guy then Zig Zag Zells on are crew. At least he isn't out challenging anyone to duels.

7. I happen to think there is nothing whatsoever wrong in being "angry"

...that republican dissing word used on Democrats so often.

In fact, I'm fucking furious. Kinda like the repukes were when Clinto was in office....except about one zillion times MORE pissed.

Okay?

What might you be doing here? btw, welcome....i think

4. This is a good line of attack. Bush is a fake vet.

and has proven he will misuse our armed forces.
He is unfit.

6. Why would we want a whole

new round of Swift Boat trashings. That's how we got behind in the first place. Lets go after unemployment and the economy.
