This is exactly the tactic that Rupert Murdoch, Karl Rove, & the Koch Brothers use.

As you two seem completely incapable of setting aside your bias, or your ignorance i'll ask you to site... really anything where Soros threatened a law suite because he was be associated with a group he began and was funding.

The Koch brothers are so ashamed and afraid of their association and support of this group they are threatening lawsuits to keep it hidden. Ignoring the obnoxious little troll in his basement... and trying for ONE second to focus on that point... can you not put aside your ignorance and bias acknowledge this is even the tiniest bit... oh lets softball it in and say 'strange'...

If the Koch Brothers want to be sneaky with this then who cares. Like GEORGE SOROs isn'tdoing the same kind of shit. But then again Koch did not collapse the British dollar like Soros.

Your video, Koch Brothers Can't Stand Their Own Organizations, has made it into the Top 15 New Videos listing. Congratulations on your achievement. For your contribution you have been awarded 1 Power Point.

Pretty sad that Basement Boy has to try and ride the coattails of a losing liberal commentator.

But who knows what reasons the Koch brothers have for doing what they do. As for the Florida law, I think it sounds pretty awesome. People who get gov't taxpayer money should be drug tested. The leading cause of death in the county where I live is drug overdose. Heroin overdoses are now epidemic. My wife just went to a funeral for a girl, 24 yrs old, who overdosed. My wife's best friend's daughter got addicted to heroin. Church-going people.

But instead of talking about something important, Ms. Bloviator sounds like she's just uncovered the greatest scandal since Teapot Dome. She must be very satisfied with herself. Bravo.

Not really all that surprising @lantern53 but you completely miss the point.

The Koch brothers do fund groups they agree with, at no time was anyone suggesting otherwise.

When someone usually does that they don't cringe and cower at then being associated with said group. The Koch brothers in this case clearly don't want to be affiliated with their own organization. Are you truly saying you don't see that... even in your incredibly biased mind as being just the tiniest bit suspicious?

that's a handsome woman

the Koch brothers fund groups they agree with...WOW!

or you believe they set up all these organizations, a massive right-wing conspiracy

George Soros wouldn't do anything like that, would he? Probably wouldn't need to, he already has CNN, MSNBC, NBC, CBS, ABC NYT etc.

Dribble.

On the democrat side all there is is Warren. Hillery won't run. Her utter failure at the state department and the fact that she is married to pedophile Bill will keep her out.

I do agree that the republican party is filled with losers. Mit has the best chance. But leave it to Republican leadership to loose the election.


As far as Billionairs buying / swaying / influencing elections and all the left is bash the Koch brothers. - When will the medial look at truth?


The left are buying the elections, not the right.

For the 2014 election
Thomas Steryer gave $74M to the democrats
Koch brothers gave $2.4M to the Republicans.
Even George Soros ($3.8M) gave more to Democrats than Koch.

It's pretty obvious dude. The Koch bros are just nice guys trying to help protect the average shmo from corrupt cops. And he's right. Sometimes I get upset thinking to myself god damn there is so much corruption and manipulation but then I console myself knowing that the Koch bros are out there having my back. Thanks Koch bros!

Little do the 23 other videosifters who voted for this video know that the Koch brothers fund the group that keeps track of police wrongdoing like the one this video came from.

"It will wreck our economy"

Sound familiar? Any AGW denier ever uttered that line and when asked "how", they have no clue?

Let me introduce you the institution behind it: Freedom Partners. Check who is behind that. Follow the money, who has most to lose. Then try to think a tactic that will keep you floating in dollars the longest. Yup, it is to teach all your followers to keep repeating the same catchphrase..

When even there has been a great communal investment in better technology infrastructure, the economy has had a tremendous boost. Railroad, electric grid, internet. Renewable energy is just a another on that line. Burning something, destroying it to get energy is finite resource. Renewables are basically infinite. Person who sells firewood is not going to like your electric heater even when it means half of the village will not die next winter. Company that sells oil will not like infinite energy source they are not in control of even if it means half of us die. They and their kids won't be affected but you will.

"It will wreck our economy"

If something, it will boost your economy. Greatly. It is already in motion in most EU countries, Germany is at 33%. Norway is at 99%. Where i live, in Finland, we are at 25% even when half of the year most of our hydro-electric is not functional. Have ANY of those countries seen any negative, economy destroying effects? No? They all have actually benefited from them? No way, bloody communists propaganda.. Lies lies, lallaalaaa, i believe in Koch.

"It will wreck our economy"

The people behind that line of words has been behind every major block in the way of creating green energy. The will raise the cost so high it is impossible, they will lobby until it's too complicated to change anything. THEY are wrecking your economy. THEY are stopping innovation. THEY are wrecking our whole mfcking planet and you are worried about your electric bill or not having two hot showers per day.

"I have nothing against green energy but i'm not going to do anything for it."

That is you.

Leftists are the only patriots left.
The Right is purposefully destroying the government by preventing ANY laws being passed and SUING the president !!!?!! Meanwhile they cry about the debt, when it is the right that always drive up the debt, mainly by starting useless wars.
Meanwhile the Teabaggers, owned by the Koch brothers, defeated the public option health plan, under orders. A plan which would have benefited all Americans.
Broken.

I've made similar statements to my family. I was raised Republican and think that a lot of the core values are great. Unfortunately, you've got the koch brother tea party nutjobs and previously the neocon PNAC SOB's that have co-opted the party. I do think there is a large portion of the Tea Party that have legitimate beefs and that they actually align in many ways with the Occupy movement. I would like to see the U.S. have many more legitimate parties, but it seems like the system is too rigged for this to happen.
