Soros Channeling Big Money to Clinton and Obama

george_soros_lightbox Accuracy in Media is reporting that George Soros is pouring millions into the Democratic party through hedge funds that channel it to Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama.

It is apparent that both of these candidates are "corporate Democrats" with substantial ties to the business community. But haven’t we been told by the media that the Republicans are the party of Big Business?

In fact, a review of the public record for the 2008 election cycle shows that Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama are in the top five of all politicians, on the presidential and congressional levels, in receiving financial contributions from the controversial, mysterious and secretive hedge fund industry. Overall, data from the Center for Responsive Politics shows that hedge funds prefer Democrats over Republicans by a margin of 79-21 percent. Democrats have received $4.2 million and Republicans $1.1 million from hedge funds. What the hedge fund operators want from the politicians is what all of us desire-less taxation, regulation and oversight. But they have the money to get their way, even though they can hold the fate of entire nations and their economies in their hands.

It is significant that one of the richest men in the world, billionaire George Soros, is a hedge fund operator and convicted inside trader who pours millions of dollars into the Democratic Party, its front groups and candidates. He has put money into the coffers of both Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama. He will be able to pull the strings if either is elected president.
