  1. Re:What A Horrible Summary.. on George Soros Speaks Politics · · Score: 3, Informative

    For starters, he trumpets the oft-stated mistake that there is no connection between Iraq and al Qaeda -- at first he gets it right, saying "no connection between 9/11 and Iraq" but then states the fallacy. To see how much of a fallacy it is, read any recent (last 9 months) article by Stephen F. Hayes.
    Next, he brings out the ridiculous draft claim. First, re-enlistment rates are at record highs. Second, there will not be a draft. Bush has stated that he doesn't want a draft, and the military has stated that it doesn't want a draft. The conscription bill in the house has been put there by Democrats trying to scare people.
    His list of Bush flip-flops are silly, because they are merely listing points of the Iraq invasion plan. Of course we will first dismantle the army and reassemble it -- the first one wanted to kill us (baathists) and the second one is our ally!
    This is just more of the campaigning that Soros is claiming to rise above.
