Soren Dayton of RedState notices that Barack Obama's choice of Jim Johnson to vet vice presidential choices is worse than previously understood:...there is more on Johnson. In 2001, he joined Persueus LLC as a Vice Chairman. Perseus has a number of funds. Among them:
PERSEUS-SOROS BIOPHARMACEUTICAL FUND, L.P., which Perseus co-manages, was formed in 2000 with capital commitments totaling $449 million to make investments in life sciences companies
So Perseus is a business partner with George Soros. And Johnson is the Vice Chairman ...
Incidentally, as Say Anything Blog notes, Perseus also seems to own the publisher of the Scott McClellan book
So George Soros' business partner is helping select Obama's veep. How interesting that Obama just keeps coming up with friends (and appointees) with very dubious assocations.
