Is The Democratic Party Becoming A Cult Of George Soros - America's Most Dangerous Billionaire?

The quick answer is yes - and Soros' influence is very appropropriately being referred to as "The Shadow Party."

David Horowitz and Richard Poe co-wrote The Shadow Party: How George Soros, Hillary Clinton and Sixties Radicals Siezed Control of the Democratic Party (Thomas Nelson, 2006)

I've been waiting for the netroots/Democratic Party/George Soros conection to get more attention - this looks like the begining of much more to come.

Writing at FrontPage magazine.com, David Horowitz and Richard Poe pose questions like - "Has the Democratic Party become a cult?" and "Is leftwing billionaire George Soros its guru?" - and then provide the answers to these and more:

Take the current Democratic mantra that, if there are terrorists in the world, George Bush has created them. This is a familiar Soros-ism. As he has done many times before, Soros decried Bush's characterization of the current global conflict as a "war on terror" in a Wall Street Journal op-ed titled "A Self-Defeating War" (8/15). According to Soros "a misleading figure of speech applied literally has unleashed a real war fought on several fronts -- Iraq, Gaza, Lebanon, Afghanistan, Somalia -- a war that has killed thousands of innocent civilians and enraged millions around the world....we can escape it only if we Americans repudiate the war on terror as a false metaphor."

In normal times and coming from an ordinary mortal, these would be regarded as the comments of a crackpot. After all, the Islamic jihad was on the march - and killing Americans -- for twenty years before George Bush employed the metaphor. Back in 1979, the streets of Teheran were already filled with a million frenzied Muslims chanting "Death to America," and the 9/11 attacks were themselves hardly in response to anything that the American president had said.

But because this judgment is the considered wisdom of a megalomaniac billionaire whose network controls the purse strings of the Democratic Party, this is now the foreign policy of the liberal opposition. When George Soros speaks, the left listens.

See - George Soros: Open Society And Open Borders. ... His open society comes off as a bastardization of socialism and libertarianism. This mixed brew includes more taxes (but not on the Soros fortune), increased government spending, open borders, immigration entitlements for legal and illegal aliens, devaluing citizenship but promoting feminism, free abortions, affirmative action, and sex and gender rights.
