Yeah, I know... I'm not going to sit here and pretend that liberals are perfect. I don't think ANY political cast is perfect. As you know, I am not a Democrat and I never was. But considering the current political landscape, I do find myself more aligned with liberals in general. You push the Soros button a lot eagle and to be honest, I just haven't found much interest in diving any deeper than I already have with the story behind this plutocrat. I know he uses his vast fortunes to influence our politics but so do the Koch brothers and many, many others. As far as I am concerned they are all part of the plutocracy and you know how I feel about that.

I guess what I feel frustrated with is that while we both have this bead on global power, you keep insisting on using the partisan scope which I think limits your analysis. In my opinion, global power operates on a completely different level. Partisan politics is a function of government and is downright municipal compared to global politics. When I approach that level of power I leave my left-wing boots at the door and I talk about money vs people... plutocracy vs republic. It's not what we are conditioned for, given the MSM obsession with national politics, but it's a paradigm shift I think anyone interested in viewing global politics needs to vault.
