Soros Likens Bush to Nazi

Democrat moneyman George Soros keeps inserting his foot deeper into his mouth as he ratchets up his monomaniacal quest to defeat President Bush.

"It is the central focus of my life," Soros told the Democrat pressure group MoveOn.org on Monday. The Washington Post quoted him as saying that ending Bush's presidency was for him "a matter of life and death."

Soros told MoveOn.org that Bush administration was reminiscent of Hitler's Third Reich. "When I hear Bush say, 'You're either with us or against us,' it reminds me of the Germans."

In separate comments, Soros told the Post that Bush's foreign policy conjured up memories of Nazi slogans on the walls, such as "Der Feind Hort mit" ("The enemy is listening").

"America, under Bush, is a danger to the world," said the Hungarian émigré, who survived the National Socialists' occupation. "And I'm willing to put my money where my mouth is."

The leftist billionaire has emerged as a key player in next year's presidential election by working with Clinton fund-raiser Harold Ickes to subvert the campaign finance "reform" legislation, which Democrats adored until it became law last year.

Soros has pledged $10 million to the group Americans Coming Together, and Monday he donated $5 million to MoveOn.org. He plans to raise $75 million in a bid to defeat Bush.

Soros also has bankrolled the Democrat think tank Center for American Progress with a $20 million contribution. Last week Sen. Hillary Clinton complained to the group that Bush had subverted the rule of law to attack Iraq and was trying to cover up U.S. battlefield casualties.

Reacting to Soros' comments blaming Bush for anti-Semitism, a White House official told the New York Sun on Tuesday, "That is completely unsupported by the facts and a ridiculous comment."

Others reacted more strongly. James Tisch, chairman of Conference of Presidents of Major American Jewish Organizations, called Soros' outburst "an outrage.”
