Those Evil Koch Brothers

Helping poor people. Don't they know that the Democrats are supposed to take your money and redistribute it as they see fit and to their benefit? This is unacceptable. They need audited, or re-audited.

The best way to "help" the poor is to give them a job,.. and let them learn how to keep a job...



everything i have seen and read about the Koch brothers is that they are fairly middle of the road.. a bit like ol Warren.. and would be loved to no end if they gave to the left party exclusively..


and would get worshiped if they asked for an occasional tax increase even if they know they will NEVER pay a dime more like ol Warren does..

They have a ranch in Texas just a smidge bigger than the Fatman's. That's the only reason he needs to hate their guts.

Wrong again- I don't hate the Koch's.... I just don't think they or other multi-millionaires/billionaires should be able to donate Millions/hundreds of Millions $ and buy elections and own politicians like they do... Be it the Koch's, Warren Buffett, Soros, Sheldon Adlelson or whoever...

What's the difference between 1 guy giving $1 Million$ to a political race

and 100 people giving $10,000 each to a PAC for the same candidate?

Is that still "BUYING" an election? :roll: :roll:

But, but, but you voted for Obola, who was firmly in Soros' back pocket and financed by him, and owns him lock, stock, and golf clubs. :???: :???: :???:

Intervention by foreigners must be more acceptable than intervention by Americans, huh?

At least that is 100 people believing in and supporting the candidate and his platform/issues...Better yet it would be best if it was limited to $100 each and the support came from 10,000 people-- Or $10 each and funding coming from 100,000 people.... Gives the average John and Jane Doe a little better chance of being heard....
But the courts say that limits rich folks free speech!

So it's just rich folks you hate, regardless of political affiliation? Interesting.

And the Court is correct in doing so. :wink:

Don't they get their chance to be heard on election day? If they spend some time vetting the candidates and not just believing the hype that big money buys, like you did in 2008/2012, then the Country should be fine.

But, what I think is really going on is that you don't want the truth getting out, through advertising, about your Democrats.

I'm well aware of the Cato Institute but the only Kato I knew of was a former poster on this site from Manitoba...
