So the Koch brothers have donated close to a billion to the upcoming election

[Billy000]

That's essentially a third party made up of only two guys. Isn't it time conservatives admit how incredibly wrong they were about Citizen's United? Money now trumps most of the American voice. Congratulations, republicans. Democracy is now dying. You won.

Its true. Its between Adelson and Kochs. Someone posted a thread here about wanting a third party but the enormous money involved has effectively made that impossible. Just as it has made it impossible for anyone but a corporate shill to win.

We will never again see an election that is decided by voters.

The 1% control who runs and who wins and the anti-American RW traitors are too damn dumb to know what it means to them and their families.

Isn't time Democrats stopped whinning about citizens united and pretending like they don't use it to raise big bucks?

Resistance is futile...

What if someone was to tell you how you can and can't spend your own money?

It wasn't all that long ago that the Democrat voters were bragging about how the Republican party will never win an election again....
So which is it?

It's fine when the Democrat party got the unions to finance their candidates.

Good.

I can hear the liberal frustration and anger from here.

The NERVE of people thinking they can freely campaign and advertise against what the liberals think is best for all of us! The NERVE!

He shoots..... he scores!!!!

 

[Darkwind]

Oh no! Free speech is breaking out everywhere. This MUST BE STOPPED!

 

[Rozman]

People are free to donate to democrat candidates...

 

[Rozman]

The poor little Democrat party.....Wah!

It certainly is.

The Koch brothers gave their money freely, by their own choice.

Union members were forced to, often against their own will.

 

[Little-Acorn]

Yes, they are.

And these days, most people know better.

That's what's really scaring the Dems. Their coverups and deceit aren't working any more. And coverups and deceit are all they have. All they have ever had.

Clinton has close to a billion from the dealing-wheeling then the unions will make sure they spend their members' money "wisely." I do not understand what the issue is with Koch Brothers

 

[Rozman]

Again....it's been said many time here that the GOP will never win an election again.
Then we hear the bitching that they will win every election because of money....
Yet the democrat party probably spends just as much or more.
