Quite a bit, if you bothered to pay the least bit of attention to serious politics in this country over the past 20-30 years.

Yes, that speaks to the involvement of all three men in American politics.

Kind of strange though when the Koch's made their money 'the American Way' (providing jobs/product etc etc) while Soros bet against the British (dollar) and is not a homebred but that's all you!

Which has nothing at all to do with the subject, which is the three men's involvement in American politics.

I guess you don't get that it's not about "winning"? It would be nice to debate opposing views on important topics, no? You know, discuss a subject in depth and with some nuance? Sure, we have have the "he sucks!" threads, but that gets pretty boring.
