Stalin Also Had a Five-Year Plan

After failing in his quest to oust President George W. Bush, Billionaire George Soros is taking the long-term approach to destroying the country and system that enabled him to become rich.

George Soros told a carefully vetted gathering of 70 likeminded millionaires and billionaires last weekend that they must be patient if they want to realize long-term political and ideological yields from an expected massive investment in “startup” progressive think tanks.

The Scottsdale, Ariz., meeting, called to start the process of building an ideas production line for liberal politicians, began what organizers hope will be a long dialogue with the “partners,” many from the high-tech industry. Participants have begun to refer to themselves as the Phoenix Group.

Rob Stein, a veteran of President Bill Clinton’s Commerce Department and of New York investment banking, convened the meeting of venture capitalists, left-leaning moneymen and a select few D.C. strategists on how to seed pro-Democratic think tanks, media outlets and leadership schools to compete with such entrenched conservative institutions as the Heritage Foundation, the American Enterprise Institute and the Leadership Institute.

They call themselves "progressives" so that others will not recognize them for who they really are: Socialists and Marxists. Anyone else ever notice how these wealthy liberals used the advantages of capitalism to earn their fortunes, and now want to promote "progressive" ideas which would place obstrucions in the path of others who would like to do the same?

George Soros' new plan also includes creating 'training camps' for young progressives. Youth training camps? That sounds like something out of a Communist or Nazi Handbook.
