Numerous conservatives have slammed Occupy Wall Street for protesting the "wrong" people. Rather than the bankers who ran the global economy into the ground during the Bush era, it's the current White House that deserves the people's ire, they say.
However, conservative activist Cliff Kincaid has a new target for populist outrage: Democratic-leaning financier George Soros... and he's got the kooky conspiracy theory diagrams to prove it!

As Minnesota Public Radio reports, Democratic gubernatorial nominee Mark Dayton has a very special fundraiser coming up, to help pay for his efforts in the state recount. The headliner at the December 13th event will be none other than former President Bill Clinton.
But that's not all. It will also be held in New York, at the home of George Soros.
Going into the recount, Dayton led Republican nominee Tom Emmer by 8,770 votes, or 0.42%. While this is within the 0.5% needed to trigger a statewide recount, many observers have doubted that Emmer could pull ahead, as Dayton's lead is probably too wide to be reversed barring any surprising discoveries in the hand count. However, a possible drawn-out legal contest could potentially result in Republican Gov. Tim Pawlenty staying in office in the interim, with the opportunity to work with a newly elected Republican legislature.

Now the O'Donnell's lawyer is attacking the organization which made the charges against her -- arguing that the group lacks credibility because George Soros has donated to CREW.
