By the time the Democrats get through with the fat-cat Koch brothers... in comparison Mitt Romney will have looked like a boy scout.

WASHINGTON After months of wincing in the face of negative ads funded by the industrialists David and Charles Koch, Democrats believe they have finally found a way to fight back: attacking the brothers sprawling business conglomerate as callous and indifferent to the lives of ordinary people while pursuing profit and power.
Never has a better comparison been made. The Koch Brothers are like Romney on steriods, and make the NRA pocketbook look like a change purse.
Despite their philanthropic efforts (I like to respond to threads before reading all the posts so my thoughts are original so I'm sure there's a defensive mention of them from some right winger on here), their purpose of life is twofold:
a. Make as much money as possible.
b. Use that money to buy as much government as possible to pursue their goals.
Think of it this way. Muammar Gaddafi was worth about $75 to $80 billion - about the same as the Koch Brothers.
And their goals are much the same.
