Why Do Liberals Complain About the Koch Bros but not George Soros?

"Democrat cheating is several orders of magnitude more prevalent than Republican cheating."

Yes the GOP hatred of workers is so much better than the democratic lying. Funny.

I don't care how much they pay. You have it made you stay quiet.

Grabbed some random items from the "Issues" section of Americans for Prosperity website, the Koch Brothers front group. Going through page after page the "issues" reads more like a portfolio wish list than a philosophy.

Americans for Prosperity

• Against minimum wage hike. Does not say if they think there sould be any mimumim wage.
• For farm bill.
• Believes Ryan-Murry 2014 Spending Budget does not cut enough spending and is against it.
• Against passenger rail.
• End Community Development Block Grants.
• End government investment in technology
• End flood insurance subsidies for an additional year.
• Supports Public-private partnerships such as letting a private company fix a road and then put up a toll booth.
• Believes ethanol industry is bad for the environment.
• Against extending federal wind subsidies.
• Against requiring refiners to blend biofuel in gasoline.
• Against extending the unemployment benefits.
• For school choice.

Where does it say their position on these issues constitute a "philosophy?" Your positions are the result of your philosophy, not the basis for it.

Again why does anybody who is filthy wealthy care about politics? Answer? They are whiny pathetic people who pay more than the working class slob. Somehow that bothers them. They should shut up. Why are those at the very top concerned about those at the very bottom? Again they are NOT my fellow Americans.

One reason is they don't want to looted by a hoard of moochers like you. Only stupid people don't pay attention to politics - the kind who voted for Obama.

Yurt! Thank goodness you're here. Would you please tell these nice people of the wonderful values the Koch Brothers bring to American politics?

Sure, they support values like freedom, honesty, hard work and independence. As opposed to Democrats who support sucking off your fellow Americans.

"Support" might not be the most accurate word. More like the "sell" it. They sell you those words so you will use them against others and give them what they want.

And you think Democrats aren't selling anything?

Here's a little puzzle for you. Does "Freedom == Hard work" ?

Stupid question. Do you think freedom == welfare?

Republicans hate union thugs, not workers.

Fine, allow me to clarify. Their positions do not "reflect" a philosophy. It appears to be "reflecting" what they would like to maximize their portfolio.

If some ignorant welfare queen is allowed to speak her mind, why shouldn't the wealthy have the same rate.

BTW, nice way to demonstrate your support of the principles of free speech and democracy.

I'd ask the same of the OP. Why complain about Soros and not about Koch? I think we know the answer but I am across the board against the uber rich influencing our politics.

Now when you quote me on some "you dont support the 1st amendment" bullshit. You'll be revealed as not giving a shit about the riches influence on our elections. You just dislike which rich guy is doing it.

I dont want any of them doing it. What say you Mr High and Mighty?

Soros donated 32 times as much as the Koches. 32 times and yet you and your buddies routinely attack Koch donations and never Soros. Go figure.

I couldn't find this 32 x more figure, I don't believe it but I know kochs have been convicted of stealing oil off government land, got off with only a fine of course. Could be why you republicans suck up to and defend the kochs. They have so much money they don't have to go to jail.

Liberals being hypocrites, liars and scum...believe the rules are different for them.

They are allowed to say whatever they like about others, but the same doesn't apply to others counter to their opinion.

So if a conservative gives money to his political nominee, that is illegal and immoral thus must be stopped...nevermind their scumbags give more money to their fellow goons.

Sorry, numskull, but they were never convicted of anything. I see a lot of allegations by Koch hating leftists, but no hard evidence against them. Given the hysterical frenzy that the Koch brothers inspire in leftists, it's hard to take any of their accusations seriously.

So since Obama is rich...you support him shutting the fuck up.

When a someone, anyone, gives money to buy influence and favors from the U.S. government, yeah, liberals have a problem with that.

Free speech - they have every right to express their feelings. They pay more so the country is more theirs than the bottom feeders. Those who pay nothing should shut the fuck up!

So, the more money you have, the more influence you should have it sounds like, no matter how you got the money? Maybe you think voting should be the same? Maybe an unemployed person that hasn't paid taxes shouldn't be allowed to vote, just stay home and stfu?

 

[1776]

So like the liberals that gave money to Obama's campaign for "green energy $$$$," Ambassador positions, Cabinet/Admin positions?????

It's ok for Hollywood liberals to give money to some Democrap woman running for Gov in Texas despite not having any connection to Texas, but the Kochs can't give money to a GOP POTUS nominee....that is liberal logic.

 

[RandomVariable]

If I was wanted to be Ambassador to Guam and gave $100 in order to get that position then that is wrong. If I get the position of Ambassador to Guam and I gave $100 because I believe in what that candidate stood for then that is OK. One can not automatically say one or the other. When some of these groups get people all riled up because they believe in "freedom" and the other person is a "commie" then what that group is really after is suspect.

There is no such thing as a local election any more.

No they don't. They sure as hell don't have a problem with George Soros.

Hope you don't mind I cut most of that out. I left the URL just in case. This is the problem with the rightie propaganda machine. Most of the people just get really upset about the liberal commie socialists. Then someone like you comes along. Completely over the edge, foaming at the mouth, all sense of proportion completely gone from your mind. If you ever met the Koch Brothers to shake their hands for being the savior of your country they would probably call security.
