    I was told this one a long time ago. Not sure if it really counts as a riddle.

    A man is found in a room after he has hanged himself. There are no pieces of furniture in the room for him to have stood on. No window sills, etc for him to have stood on. He is about 4 feet off the ground. There is just a puddle of water underneath him.

    How did he hang himself?

    did someone say chain mails from grandma?!?!
    Subject: Fw: Soros' 5 Steps to Take Control



    American Friends;

    This is possibly the most important email you will read if you are concerned about what is going on in OUR country. Keep in mind this man is a multi-billionaire and backs president Obama's efforts 100%. There is a large and growing number of people across the length and breadth of this nation who are beginning to believe that George Soros is the puppeteer and OUR president is the puppet. You make up your own mind. Everything you will read here is absolute fact. Learn all you can about this man and the people and organizations who he is behind with his tremendous money power.

    The dark italicized writing below are the words of the American Friend who sent it to me. I personally watched the exposure job which Glenn Beck so masterfully did on this man last week.

    John Porter

    Harrison, Arkansas




    If anyone does any research on this man, he is taking down this country as he has in the past with the Soviet Union and Great Britain to name a couple...........his target is the U.S.................very scary because it is slowly becoming a reality..........



    Step 1. Form a Shadow government using humanitarian aid as a “cover.” Engage in subversive activities.

    Examples:

    * The Open Society Institute (OSI) spent $0.5 billion in charity around the globe “investing in people.”
    * OSI financed the Shadow Convention during the 2008 Presidential Campaign and chaired by Arianna Huffington.
    * OSI supported “campaign finance reform” campaign with $ 100 million which led to 501k(3) special interest groups like Move On and Media Matters contributing heavily without public disclosure to leftist election campaigns.
    * OSI funded millions to Jim Wallis, head of Sojourners, a Soros progressive propaganda organization, to infiltrate churches with leftist ideology.



    Step 2. Control the airwaves. Control existing media outlets. Attack Fox network.

    Examples:

    * Give National Public Radio $ 1.6 million to hire more reporters.
    * Give Media Matters $ 1.0 million to destroy Glenn Beck.
    * Give Tea Party Tracker operated by NAACP funds to derail Glenn Beck.
    * Give $ to Think Progress





    Step 3. Destabilize the state. Weaken the government. Use outside pressure-inside out strategy. Encourage massive government spending to pile up unheard of amounts of debt. Create an economic crisis. The one headed our way is the monetization of the US debt by the Administration and Federal Reserve leading to the devaluation of the US dollar and spiraling inflation. The first wave of this inflation will be unheard of food prices in the U.S.

    Examples:

    * Fund $ 4.2 million to the Tides Foundation for propaganda such as “The Story of Stuff” distributed to schools.
    * Fund the Apollo Alliance who wrote the Obama Stimulas bill.
    * Fund the Center for American Progress—Soros think tank.
    * Fund the Institute for Policy Studies which recently produced a study recommending that Obama should enact more Executive Orders and bypass the Congress



    Step 4. Provoke an election crisis. Cry election fraud in select elections.

    Examples:

    * OSI funds ACORN’s election fraud dirty dealings.
    * Fund the Secretary of State Project—to influence the election of leftist Secretaries of State in the 50 states because they certify election results. Thus, steal elections.
    * Fund One America Votes, a door to door campaign of illegal immigrants urging minorities to get out and vote in key elections.





    Step 5. Take Power. Stage demonstrations and street riots. Bottom up strategy. Put pressure on the population.

    Examples:

    * One Nation Rally in D.C. in response to Glenn Beck’s 8/28 Restore Honor rally.
    * The October 1 Labor Union Rally in D.C.
    * Fund Ruckus Group of anarchists in Seattle.
    * Fund Faith in Public Life to dethrone Glenn Beck.
    * Fund Sojourners to discredit Glenn Beck.
    * Fund Media Matters to call for Glenn Beck’s head.



    Van Jones Strategy-Top Down, Bottom up, Inside out strategy.

    What does it mean? Soros used this to destabilize Czechoslovakia in 1940.

    * Top down—gain control of the government with leftist anarchists. [In the U.S.,this was accomplished with Obama’s election and his subsequent profusion of White House leftist czars.]
    * Bottom up—Inside out: Create the illusion of widespread street unrest. There is orchestrations involved in this. The Czech people were hungry and unemployed and leftist anarchists stirred up violent street riots. The people clamored to the government for help to quell the unrest. Big mistake. The new shadow government stepped in, installed a Communist regime and clamped down on the entire populace. The leftist power grab was complete.
    * This strategy made the Czech people felt alone and surrounded. They called for the wrong people, the government, to stop the madness.

    Now, in America, we are in Step 5 of Soros’ strategy to take control. The big difference is, because of Glenn Beck’s educational efforts, the American people are not alone. We surround them. They realize that 40+% of Americans are conservative and progressives are in a minority. We are Americans. We will not let Soros and his minions take our country.



    Glenn Beck is shining the light of TRUTH on Soros and Soros cannot stand the light. He sent a henchman to threaten Beck this week. The OSI created a charming propaganda commercial lauding the humanitarian nature of Soros this week. Soros is feeling the heat. He can no longer hide behind the curtain pulling the strings of his countless puppets. His plan to bring down America is exposed to the public. Share this with as many friends as you can.

    he kind of lay flat and curved his legs back with the noose around his neck and tied the other end to his ankle so that when he relaxed his legs it pulled the rope tighter, you see

    He used a block of ice and you just found him a day or two after it happened.

    And he lives in a warm and dry climate.
