This excellent catch of the day from the excellent Fox News Channel’s Special Report with Britt Hume and his “Political Grapevine” section from yesterday:
Taking Stock
While the left-wing activist groups supported by billionaire George Soros have been attacking the Halliburton Company — Soros has been quietly taking a major stock position in the company. The Securities and Exchange Commission reports Soros has purchased nearly two million shares of the company once run by Vice President Cheney — investing more than $62 million.
Editor Mike Boyer of Foreign Policy magazine writes on his blog: “The real question, however, is whether MoveOn.org, the Center for American Progress, and other organizations that have benefited from Soros’ charity will see a problem with accepting money earned off Halliburton shares?”
This Soros accumulation of 2,000,000 Halliburton shares would exceed those of liberal-leftist hypocrite Michael Moore and his paltry 2,000 shares (which I blogged about here) by a magnitude of 1,000.
Shocka: Try as I might, I can’t find any stories about this on any of the liberal media. Even the state-run CBC’s “Business News” section —which I find to be a hideous bit of socialist irony and incongruity in which you would normally expect to see stories covering big liberal-leftist government and their intrusion into the business world and about socialists and communists in the grown-up business world rather than stories about actual private enterprise and capitalism —is not on this story.
