SAFER not funded by Soros. (But Safer was.)
I found this paragraph in the latest SAFER Choice email interesting:
"One of the lies spread by the drug czar while he was in town was that billionaire George Soros is funding our 'million-dollar campaign.' This is utterly false. We have never received a penny from George Soros. I am not sure George Soros even knows we exist."
Soros has been linked to the Campaign for New Drug Policies. But I wondered why the White House drug czar would have thought Soros was involved with SAFER. And by gosh, after a whole two seconds of Googling, I think I have it. In 2003, Soros was involved with an after-prison initiative called the Safer Foundation.
SAFER Choice. Safer Foundation. Hey it's a mistake anyone could make, right? Except you'd think John Walters would have checked his facts. I mean, he works for the government, and the government is never wrong.
