Bushmaster Closing...

[Zundfolge]

I've been trying to track down the truth in this rumor, that George Soros is a controlling stockholder in Cerberus Capital Management.

Cerberus Capital Management is not a publicly traded company, ergo there is no such thing as a "controlling stockholder" as there is no stock to be held.

If you look at the execs at Cerberus and do some digging on each one you'll find that they don't tend to follow the Soros mold (ie they're not involved in leftist politics)

In fact most of them are Republicans (not that that makes them 100% trustworthy, but if you look at organizations run by Soros they are usually run by committed progressives that are very open about their politics).

What open reports that exist do indicate that he's the controlling factor behind Cerberus...

Sources please? The only connection I find between Soros and top people at Cerberus is that Soros funded groups (like media matters) have published lots of articles making these guys out to be as bad if not worse than the Koch brothers.

Whats funny is that when you start digging, most of the "Soros controls Cerberus" stories resolve back to articles on David Icke's site (for those of you unfamiliar with Mr. Icke, he makes Alex Jones look like a sane, rational, reasonable person).
