Why Doesn't The Koch Brothers Just Run For Office?

[Cecilie1200]

The left's ongoing paranoia about a Jewish conspiracy rears it's ugly head? Why doesn't George Soros run for office?

he was born in kenya

The fact that Soros wasn't born in the US just means he can't be President. Doesn't mean he can't run for other offices.

If they wish to be in power so much, why don't they run for a public position?

Any of you self-proclaimed conservatives care to answer that one?

can i take a stab at it?

1. they'd have to disclose their finances.
2. they'd have to take a pay cut
3. why would they? they have their hoards to do their bidding.

You forgot:

4. They have every right to participate in politics without running for office, as do we all.

and

5. They just don't frigging WANT to.

Folks, just observe how these self-proclaimed Conservatives are TEACHING us how to respond to their rabid claims and rants about George Soros.

Observe how swiftly they run, jump and skip to the Kochsters' defense.

I mean, you just can't make this stuff up.

LOL!!

Let me get this straight!

YOU make a thread ranting about the Koch Brothers and somehow THAT proves some hypocrisy about conservatives?????????

Yeah nice try!

When you can show me the threads I've ever started whining about Soros, do let me know.

We didn't start the thread, dude. YOU DID!

But, keep trying that spin! It's very entertaining!

It's pretty obvious what his point is.

He's making it quite clear whether he intended to or not.

Liberals think people should ONLY donate to liberals.

AND only liberals should be involved in politics.

ANY efforts by conservatives to get involved in politics or donate their money to people they agree with, is an eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeevil conspiracy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This is what liberals do when they know they have lost.

They double down and claim victory anyway.

I'm still waiting for you to tell us the difference between Soros and the Koch Brothers.

What do you bet you will remain silent on that.

Oh yeah, it's hypocrisy by conservatives, right??????

Their financial records would be open for inspection, and some elected officials actually show up and work. Those born to great wealth don't understand the concept.

That's like asking why a pathologist doesn't want to have HIV.

Just because you're interested in the disease doesn't mean you want to have the disease.

I'm interested in politics, but I can't imagine anything more loathsome than a politician. The things you have to do in this country to get elected are disgraceful and despicable. Under democracy, the scum rises to the top, not the cream.

Yeah, I'm sure the Koch Brothers have never done a day's work at that huge oil company of theirs. Probably spend all their time on the golf course or at Martha's Vineyard with Michelle and the girls . . . oh, wait, that'd be Obama. Never mind.

[paulitician]

I agree. Why not? Soros has been doing it for years. He completely owns the Democratic Party at this point. Run Koch Brothers!! Run!!

 

[JWBooth]

Because you can't run for King.

In any case..they are already determining policy and writing legislation, just like Grover Norquist.

Who needs a vote?
