What Soros Wanted, Obama Delivers

In January 2004, George Soros proclaimed to the world, "I have made rejection of the Bush doctrine the central project of my life." To which he added, "America, under Bush, is a danger to the world. And I'm willing to put my money where my mouth is." Soros then waged a nearly one-wallet war against Bush, put more than $25 million of his own cash into Kerry's election bid and came out of the whole gambit with a tattered I-Voted-for-the-other-guy t-shirt.


In 2006, Soros declared in a depressive-mood pity party at the Council on Foreign Relations: "In the future, I'd very much like to get disengaged from politics. I'm interested in policy and not in politics."


If only he had stayed depressed and kept to his better intention.


But no such luck would come America's way.


Soros supported Barack Obama's candidacy, telling Judy Woodriff in May 2008, "...Obama has the charisma and the vision to radically reorient America in the world." When Woodriff queried Soros on whether it might be a concern that Obama lacked experience to lead in this dangerous time we live in, Soros responded, "...this emphasis on experience is way overdone..."

The final word from Soros in The Bubble of American Supremacy is the unabashed statement of his own preference for American foreign policy. It boils down to a beneficent America giving lots and lots of carrots to every country in the world as a means of offering "preventive action of a constructive and affirmative nature." It's the liberal answer to every problem that has ever ailed mankind: throw money at every monster until it gets so fat and happy it no longer wants to cause difficulties or wage war.

And, lo and behold, that's precisely what President Obama has set out to do since day one. Obama, too, sees global poverty as the root cause of all evil in the world, including crime, war and terrorism. His single piece of signature legislation in the Senate was a bill that would authorize an additional $845 billion from American tax payers to eradicate global poverty, and legislate a demand on future presidents to bring America in line with UN mandates on percentage of national GDP given to fight global poverty.

In addition, Obama agreed at the G20 summit in April to give more money to the International Monetary Fund (of which Soros is a huge fan), and then slipped billions of cash and a $100 billion line of credit for the IMF into the emergency war-funding bill passed this spring.

But this much is certain. Soros has long thought America far too powerful, and has seen the dollar's supremacy as every bit as dangerous to his internationalist schemes as our military strength. So far, President Barack Obama has done nothing whatsoever which would seem at odds with those scheming Soros doctrines.

If all of this does not hint at a shadow presidency with a powerful oligarch pulling the strings on a neophyte president, I honestly don't know what would.

Soros has a seat on my fantasy plane crash seating chart. The more I learn the more I think he needs an upgrade to first class..
