Journalist Digs Dirt on George Soros, Billionaire, Owner Of Mansions & Yachts

This just in on the O'Reilly Factor: journalist Peter Schweitzer's recent opus Do As I Say, Not As I Do: Profiles in Liberal Hypocrisy, explains where good ole estate-tax-raising, big-funds-to-big-government George Soros's extensive monies are sequestered. Seems the lion's share of Soros's billions are kept overseas -- Cayman Islands, Bermuda, and Curaçao, among some others of convenience. Quite beyond the jurisdiction of the IRS, by no coincidence, yet ole George S is quite willing that others' fortunes be taxed, once he's seen to it he can't be unduly touched.

If I had a thousandth as much, I'd move an appreciable fraction of it offshore too -- but I'm not going to turn around and say "now tax that other guy."

I didn't pay as much attention to a rather gleeful discussion of Al Franken's hiring practices: of 112 employees, says Schweitzer, exactly one is... what looks at first glance like a token Negro. Moral superiority? Advantage: Right.

I wonder what the Journal of Left Wing Lunacy has to say on this. Soros is the one reason AirAmerica radio is still afloat. The outfit is amateurishly managed and not making money.
