Soros Attacked; Suspects Plot

Two Ukranian thugs (should I put that in scare quotes? No, we're not the BBC) assaulted financier, deep thinker and international busybody George Soros in Kiev, with a salvo of glue. The money quote: Soros said he doubted it was just an ordinary incident. "Somebody is behind this," he was quoted as saying by Interfax.

Well, duh, George. Sort of like that time someone hedged the pound in the early 90's; there was someone behind that, as well. Or like that group that met in a Hampton's mansion to figure out how to defeat Bush in 2004. They're behind something, too!

Moral: Those who beget conspiracies always see conspiracies. [Lector: And usually they're right! Auctor: That is a subject for another time.]
