Rumor Mill Control: Soros is not behind the ammo shortage

[ignerntbend]

Funnier still, the links in the OP debunk the idea that Soros has anything to do with the ammo shortage. To point us to articles that say he isn't behind it in an effort to show that he is behind it... That's a unique and admirable strategy.

I'm confused already.
This a thread about a rumor that turned out not to be true that could have been true, but was'nt , and now is becoming true in spite of it all.

The rumor that Paul Ryan beats his wife on Sunday mornings is NOT true.
He's done a lot of things but that's not one of them.

I still resent him for meddling with my freedom and my money in plenty of other ways.

I heard that he doesn't mean to beat her, it's just that she makes him SO mad.

As I said in the OP, Soros DOES NOT OWN any of the companies that make the ammo and or the guns that have come into very short supply. The shortage is a consumer driven/supply & demand phenomenom/event caused by the leftwing attacks on the 2nd Amendment and gun ownership at local, state and national levels. But that doesn't mean that Soros couldn't be involved in the lib left's anti-gun agenda's. How many of the "water carriers" for the lib left said not to pay any attention to the man behind the curtain working the levers(the Great Oz/Obama has spoken) and that the dems would never come after our guns. All the time Obama was doing his anti-2nd Amendment agendas "under the radar" and laughing his backsides off thinking he was fooling everyone. Well the curtain has been lifted, Obama has a second term, and he and the gun hating/grabbing dems ARE COMING AFTER OUR GUNS AND OUR GUN RIGHTS. And, IMHO, any multi-millionaire/multi-billlionaire that has donated a lot of time/effort and tons of money to leftwing/lib/socialist causes HAS THE POSSIBILITY OF BEING A MOVER AND A SHAKER in the anti-gun and anti-2nd Amendment agendas of the left. Also, IMHO, anyone that doesn’t take that information about George Soros into consideration HAS THE POSSIBILITY OF BEING a low/no information sheeple voter and/or a Kool-Aider/Water-Carrier for the lib left.

Here's some background on Mr. Soros and the causes he supports: http://www.discoverthenetworks.org/viewSubCategory.asp?id=589

The linked article shows 70+ liberal organizations he supports. None are exclusively anti-second amendment, but it is a safe bet that is on the agenda of a number of them.

The article portrays him as a major factor in the leftward movement of the Democratic Party.

According to Richard Poe, co-author (with David Horowitz) of the 2006 book The Shadow Party:

"The Shadow Party is the real power driving the Democrat machine. It is a network of radicals dedicated to transforming our constitutional republic into a socialist hive. The leader of these radicals is ... George Soros. He has essentially privatized the Democratic Party, bringing it under his personal control. The Shadow Party is the instrument through which he exerts that control.... It works by siphoning off hundreds of millions of dollars in campaign contributions that would have gone to the Democratic Party in normal times, and putting those contributions at the personal disposal of Mr. Soros. He then uses that money to buy influence and loyalty where he sees fit. In 2003, Soros set up a network of privately-owned groups which acts as a shadow or mirror image of the Party. It performs all the functions we would normally expect the real Democratic Party to perform, such as shaping the Party platform, fielding candidates, running campaigns, and so forth. However, it performs these functions under the private supervision of Mr. Soros and his associates. The Shadow Party derives its power from its ability to raise huge sums of money. By controlling the Democrat purse strings, the Shadow Party can make or break any Democrat candidate by deciding whether or not to fund him. During the 2004 election cycle, the Shadow Party raised more than $300 million for Democrat candidates, prompting one of its operatives, MoveOn PAC director Eli Pariser, to declare, 'Now it’s our party. We bought it, we own it…'" the Democrat Party

I'm reminded of the lynch mob that was about to string the suspect up when they found out he was innocent of the crime and they decided to lynch him anyway because "he probably did something else just as bad" .

I'm reminded of the lynch mob that was about to string the suspect up when they found out he was innocent of the crime and they decided to lynch him anyway because "he probably did something else just as bad" .

The hypocrisy and double standards of the left never cease to amaze me. Speaking of lynch mobs:

1. Wasn't it the lib MSM that altered audio and video segments about George Zimmerman in the Trayvon Martin Case to fit the agenda of the left wingers?

2. Wasn't it Bryon Ross of ABC that tried to link a tea party member(his name was also Jim Holmes) with the shootings in Aurora, Colorado?.

3. Wasn’t it NBC that falsely accuse Richard Jewel of the Atlanta bombings. Jewel sued NBC(among others) and won?

4. How about Dan Rather's/CBS's lynch mob tatics on George Bush?

5. How about NBC's Dateline lynch mob tactics on the "exploding gas tanks"?

6. Etc., etc.
