November 13, 2008 (LPAC)--George Soros, the multi-billionaire, dope-legalization pusher, who operates for Brutish Empire interests, was denounced in Congress today, for his drug-decrim activities. Rep. Mark Souder (R-Indiana) called Soros's actions, "appalling." Soros was the star guest at a House of Representatives hearing by the Government Oversight Committee, on hedge funds and financial turmoil. Committee member Souder broke with the otherwise fatuous atmosphere by leading off his questioning of the panel of five hedge fund directors, by singling out the head of the Soros Fund Management LLC for attack. Souder said, You have led the "back-door legalization of marijuana." Souder called Soros' "intervention in the drug area, appalling." It has "damaged many Americans. I hope you will re-evaluate" what you are doing. Souder's district includes Fort Wayne, the former factory center that is now home to poverty, despair and dope.

However, later in the hearing, Rep. Elijah Cummings (D-Maryland) chose to intervene in the discussion to praise Soros for his support of drugs. Cummings led off his questions on hedge funds by saying that he would re-raise Souder's point to Soros, who "should be thanked for what you've done in Baltimore. And thanks to the Open Society." This was a miserable low point in the hearing, as Cummings' District is in Baltimore, a formerly world-class industrial center, now devastated by drugs and misery, with one of the highest rates of HIV/AIDS in the world. As they say in South Carolina, the Tar Heel State, Cummings has good gone to hell.
