Soros: 'I Am Not a Fan of Michael Moore'

George Soros denounced filmmaker Michael Moore for using unethical and misleading tactics following a speaking engagement in Harrisburg, Pa., on Oct. 19. But the billionaire liberal still defended a controversial TV ad by MoveOn.org, a liberal advocacy group heavily subsidized by Soros.

Soros was speaking at Harrisburg's Tuesday Club as part of his nationwide tour calling for the defeat of President Bush. Members of the Soros Truth Squad, sponsored by the National Legal and Policy Center, attended the event and confronted Soros.

In response to a question from Harrisburg Patriot-News reporter Peter DeCoursey about fellow Bush critic Moore, Soros criticized the filmmaker for resorting to inaccuracies "to mislead the American people." Soros emphatically stated, "I am not a fan of Michael Moore."
During the question-and-answer period, Soros defended a TV commercial aired by MoveOn PAC in September that portrayed an American soldier in Iraq sinking chest-deep into the desert. His arms were raised over his head in the universal "surrender" position. The ad said: "George Bush got us into this quagmire. It will take a new president to get us out."

In response to a wave of protest, MoveOn.org pulled the ad.

Soros brings anti-Bush tour to town

Of The Patriot-News

When billionaire George Soros, who is spending $25 million to defeat President Bush, was asked yesterday about another Bush opponent, "Fahrenheit 9/11" filmmaker Michael Moore, he delivered the biggest insult he knows.

"I think Michael Moore uses tactics very similar to those used by the Bush campaign to mislead the American people," Soros said after he spoke at a breakfast at the Tuesday Club in Harrisburg. "I think both are not very accurate. So I am not a fan of Michael Moore."

The biggest insult that Soros knows is to compare anyone to Bush.

Though they are similar you can see where Newmax put their spin on the true facts.

As is Soros unethical when attempting to deflect reporters from the truth, he insists he was not convicted of a crime in France.

As is Soros unethical when using insider information, he attempted to and almost succeeded in bringing down the British pound.

As is Soros unethical when he buys people in governments (bribes) and uses them to gain insider information and manipulate events.

From the same article you posted:

quote:

---

Flaherty asked Soros how he could come to Pennsylvania, "where corporate scandals have cost people their jobs," when Soros was convicted of insider trading in France.

Soros responded that he has not been convicted of anything and said Flaherty was breaking French law by saying so. Soros was accused of insider trading in the late 1980s, then finally tried and convicted in 2000.

These are some of the indicators of Soros unethical conduct. Sponsoring MoveOn.org, an organization which uses the lie above all else in their commercials is just another indicator of Soros' wholly unethical character. MoveOn.org which displayed on it's website a graphic commercial of Bush morphing into Hitler.

Another indicator of Soros unethical conduct is breaking US election law by donating more than 15 million dollars to groups tied directly to John Kerry. That will be dealt with after the election...compliant already filed.

In your mind it is okay for Halliburton and the Bush cabinet but not George Soros?
