Well if that is really true, I hope they get busted too. But accusations mean nothing, the loons running snopes are exposed in the open. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/arti...xen-domme.html

it's nothing but a fake news leftist political site pretending to be some self-righteous moral police. I hope them and facebook tank for their corruptions.

The difference would be, Roves money is off-shore ... not to mention the discrepency in sheer net worth. Its not a good comparison but I understand exactly what you meant.

Yeah the point was more how we're willing to assume the worst of people we don't like than it was about money, but I completely agree, the Koch brothers would have been better.

If you are against money in politics, you are against Soros. I guess we know where you stand?

Like I said I really don't know much about Soros, but campaign finance reform is an issue I feel passionately about. And it's not in any way a partisan issue: both sides are awash in special interest (largely corporate) money, and it's ruining our country/democracy.

But then right after your well-reasoned and thoughtful response we get Daywolf and his paranoid schizophrenic fantasy reality ... /sigh

Yeah like you said. But I do, while you still don't [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
Ignorance is bliss. Yeah, my reply there is far from blissful. I disturbed your bliss [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] so you lashed out personally [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Hmmm watch a 13 minute long random YouTube or believe Snopes ... tough decision.

I get that Soros is like the Karl Rove to the right, and I hate that fucker (Rove; I honestly don't know much about Soros). I'm willing to believe all sorts of terrible things about Rove because I know he's a terrible person, and so I totally get someone else wanting to believe terrible things about another political operative on the opposite end of the spectrum.

BUT ... you have to live in reality, not your own made-up fantasy land. Well, except for Norath of course.

Someone asked what happened to liberals.

Whelp here is your answer:

Libs refuse listen to the man literally say he heartlessly collected wealth from jews by collaborating and hear him say, "if it wasnt me someone else would have and I feel no remorse"... or believe snopes that its not true because it has a webpage that says that 1 photo of a nazi isnt him.

Brilliant.

Remember when those crazy anti-abortion people made their fake anti-Planned Parenthood videos look legit? If you hate George Soros enough to make a video, it's not beyond the realm of possibility that you might create falsehoods about him. The same holds true for Koch brother videos; I'm not picking on one side.

And heck, maybe it's un-edited and perfectly accurate ... but I'm still not watching 13 minutes of crazy Youtube video of a guy that I couldn't give two fucks about, and then wasting even more time having to research whether it's accurate.

Lora.. I love you and all your everquest adventures, but please, do not say that a interview that was scrubbed from the internet that very clearly describes from the horses mouth what it was he did in Nazi Controlled Germany, is fake.

This line of thinking is why democrats are losing more and more supporters, we just cant be so willfully confirmation biased.

If it's in a politico article, its far more fake than anything someone who is telling you your party is totally broken is.

You seem to think I like Soros. You've probably got this vision of a libtard with Soros posters on his wall, just as I have visions of y'all conservitards with your Karl Rove and Koch brothers posters. We all imagine things about people we don't know.

But you'll just have to trust that I truly don't care about George Soros. Really. Today is the most I've ever even heard the man's name used in my entire life.

So I'm not saying that video is false, and I'm not saying it's true. What I'm saying is that I am a lazy bastard who doesn't want to watch a 13 minute video with no timestamp about some guy I don't know/care about. I also don't want to have to do the research afterwards to find out whether my confirmation bias is making me think the video is true/false when it's actually the opposite.

Oh, and I'm also saying that was a terrible, terrible song.

But if you're so certain this video is absolute truth because you don't like him and not because you've done critical open-minded thinking and research, isn't that confirmation bias?

But editing the Zimmerman tape to delete the dispatcher asking what race Trayvon Martin was, is totally legit, since it furthered the narrative that you totally believe in with all your heart and soul.

And just what was edited out of the Planned Parenthood video, anyways? Them wiping the embryo blood off their lips?

What's this about the Zimmerman dispatcher? If he edited the tapes in an illegal way he should go to jail and if it was just something that dispatchers do and people are making a big deal out of it because of Zimmerman he shouldn't. But if you think I have some dog in the fight (other than wanting guilty people to go to jail) you're mistaken.

As for the Planned Parenthood videos, are you just arguing, or are you genuinely curious? I'll happily dig up a good article about them if you'll read it with an open mind, but otherwise I'm not going to waste my time.
