| Charles and David Koch. |
THE KOCH CRITTERS are going to make this Fall's American election something really special. According to Rolling Stone's Tim Dickinson, who has a report on Reader Supported News, "The Billion-Dollar Mitt Machine" that should be of concern.
Led by the billionaire Koch Brothers, forces allied with the GOP are now planning to spend a record-shattering $1 billion to put Romney in the White House.
The biggest news is that the Kochtopus - the shadowy network of political advocacy groups funded by industrialists Charles and David Koch - is alone planning to spend $395 million to defeat Obama.

One billion dollars: the Rule of the Rich. At least, that's what they believe. Maybe, just maybe, the American voter believes differently. We'll know in November. The Democrats have been expecting this, and Obama's people are doing their best to find alternatives to this bullion barrage, organizing a volunteer army. It ain't over 'til it's over.
Whatever. Obama's not much better than Romney. The Americans' political process is toast. The cancer is well past operable; it's spread through the lymph, it's in the bones. They are not capable of allowing a government to govern for the public good or anything remotely like it. They can't even govern for the kind of old-style capitalists that used to make useful things any more, only for fraud artists. They're going down.
ReplyDeleteOur only hope up here is to try to resist the undertow until they're finished sinking. It is somewhat unfortunate that Harper persists in lashing us tighter and tighter to that sinking ship.
Purple library guy said it: "Whatever."
ReplyDeleteI'm with him, as are a lot of my friends who are former or current USians . . . .
I love seeing these idiots waste their billions. Maybe they haven't watched this video yet...

The reality dysfunction functions on burning cash. However sooner or later reality punches through the spin, with chaotic results.
