    didn't see soros fabricating groups and interfering in the wisconsin election for supreme court like the Koch's did the answer is the republicans are either the rich who will benefit and dont care. Or a bunch of illiterate who are just plain too dumb to realize the fox and all the conservative pr is a bunch of BS and they do not know that they are selling their children's future out from under them

    Really, the Koch brothers are simply business men that arwe supporting the republicans. It is not like the democrats who are in bed with Evil George Soros.

    the Koch Brothers have done nothing wrong. Soros is an evil man and the democrats bow to everything he says and do everything he demands.

    So, Who is the real George Soros. The democrats constantly attack the Republicans and say they are in bed with big corporations when they are in bed with one of the most evil and corrupt people and corporations ever. He is worth an estimated $7.8 Billion and buys democrat politicians like candy even starting wars for his profit.

    Speaking of evil and oil market manipulation:

    (1) The U.S. futures regulator on Monday fined a commodity trading group $12 million for pushing crude oil to $100-a-barrel for the first time in 2008...

    On the first day of trading in 2008, Gavilon bid a $100 for single contract oil that changed hands on the floor of the New York Mercantile Exchange even as the electronic market was trading at a substantial discount...

    Gavilon, which is owned by investment firms General Atlantic, Ospraie Management and Soros Fund Management, will pay the majority of the fine.

    (2) Convicted in France of insider trading, Soros specializes in weakening or collapsing the currencies of entire nations for his own selfish interests. He is known as the man who broke the Bank of England. His power is such that his statements alone can cause currencies to go up or down. Other people suffer so he can get rich.Soros was fined 2.9 million dollars.

    (3) Soros signed a consent decree in United States District Court, in a Securities and Exchange Commission case involving stock manipulation, and was fined $75,000 by the Commodity Futures Trading Commission for holding positions “in excess of speculative limits.” Stories about Soros rarely, if ever, mention any of his legal problems.

    (4) Despite his vision of an “open society,” he operates an unregulated “hedge fund,” open only to the super-rich, and is currently fighting a proposal from the Bush-appointed chairman of the Securities and Exchange Commission to regulate and monitor these offshore entities. House Speaker Dennis Hastert said on national television that no one really knows where the Soros money comes from.

    (5) Obama gave a company a $2 Billion loan to a company Soros had just invested $800 Million to and then Obama also has been giving them permits to drill in the Gulf that he will not give to American Companies making Soros hundreds of millions of $$$$

    (6) Recently, his native Hungary fined Soros 2.2 million dollars for “illegal market manipulation.” Elizabeth Crum writes that “The Hungarian economy has been in a state of transition as the country seeks to become more financially stable and westernized. [Soros’] deliberately driving down the share price of its largest bank put Hungary’s economy into a wicked tailspin, one from which it is still trying to recover.

    Hungary's financial supervisory watchdog announced Friday it had slapped a 1.6-million-euro fine on an investment fund founded by US billionaire George Soros, for manipulating the market.

    These same Americans don't realize that George Soros and his ilk own most of the Media and the Democratic party.

    I'd say at least 50% of Americans are so disgusted with politics that they have given up on trying to figure out the truth - which is the way the Kochers and their pals want it.
