Bernie Sanders Takes Reid's Coo-Coo Stance On Koch Brothers

I've been down this road before having linked to who are the major donors in American politics and lo and behold the unions are. And the unions give to which party again, Bernie?

Lemme help you with that. What, you say? No, no you can keep your sandals on.

Biggest donors from 1989-2014 from opensecrets.

While 92 of 156 donors gave more to the GOP, the top heavy hitters gave their share to the Democrats.

While in 70% of the top 10 individual donors gave to the Democrats.

So let's knock the bull shit off. If you're gonna rail against the Koch brothers, have the decency to mention Soros.

Koch believe in a classical liberal America. Big deal. If you don't like it, challenge them with facts instead of hysteria.

Anyway. Sanders chimes in with assertions pretty standard among progressives:

"For the Koch brothers, $80 billion in wealth, apparently, is not good enough. Owning the second largest private company in America is, apparently, not good enough.  It doesn’t appear that they will be satisfied until they are able to control the entire political process.

It is well known that the Koch brothers have provided the major source of funding to the Tea Party and want to repeal the Affordable Care Act."

Not to say nothing, but they have a pretty good case as to why they may want to repeal the ACA. 

As for the presumptuous projection of 'nothing being good enough' for them, well, that's none of Bernie Sanders fucking business. It's not my, his or anyone's place to judge how much is enough of anything for other people. 

Some people are more ambitious than others. Some individuals have drive and that inner-engine never stops. I know the left can't understand this feature among some of our fellow humans, but it's a reality. 

They seem to have a huge problem with this lot. All this amounts to, when you scratch it to its primal end, is envy.

Nothing more, nothing less.
