Joe Lieberman takes on George Soros
Independent Senator Joe Lieberman is taking aim at one of the big money people of his former party. In an interview with NewsMax Lieberman lashed out at Jewish billionaire George Soros who poured $18 million to liberal groups in the Democratic party in the ‘04 elections and now supports Barack Obama. “The places he’s put his money are, in my opinion, so destructive that it unsettles me” says Joe about Soros.

I’m an avid Forward reader because it ticks so many of my essential boxes: excellent journalism, Jewish focus and diverse viewpoints. In today’s political climate, what I most appreciate is the Forward’s independence — made possible by the generosity of its membership.
