re: #173 Gus 802

So ideology trumps wealth. Take T Boone Pickens. When he was part of the Swiftboating he was accepted as one of them. The moment he started talking about alternative energy and wind power he was not one of them. So we’ve seen the opposite ends with Pickens. With Soros it remains rather static.

It’s because Pickens served some purpose to the Right at one time. Soros, never yet.
