A Word About Soros if I May

George Soros needs to get a much thicker skin. He spends all this time, money, and energy becoming a publicity hound, then cries foul when someone makes comments about him? COME ON!

Who cares where his money comes from? I thought that it came from financial investments and currency speculation, like when he nearly broke the Bank of England short-selling the pound sterling back in the day...(A great move, by the way. It made him millions...)

The point is this: if you want to be a big-shot billionaire philanthropist who makes high profile associations with groups like moveon.org and the like, you should expect to be ' in the public discourse, ' and you should expect some fire from the folks who are aligned against you, whether their words are true or not.

I would think that a man who endured what he did during his youth and accomplished so much in the financial world would have skin thicker than leather. But then I would have never guessed that such a brilliant capitalist would become a socialist!
