Charles Koch on Saturday signaled to hundreds of donors, operatives and conservative leaders gathered in the California desert that the political operation he and his brother David created was just getting started.

“Americans have taken an important step in slowing down the march toward collectivism,” Charles Koch said in his speech, seemingly in reference to the Republican takeover of the Senate during the 2014 midterm elections.

“But as many of you know, we don’t rest on our laurels. We are already back at work and hard at it! In fact, the work never really ends. Because the struggle for freedom never ends,” Koch said, according to excerpts provided by Freedom Partners Chamber of Commerce, a non-profit outfit that oversees the vast political and policy network created by the billionaire industrialist Koch brothers.

The Koch brothers and their operation have become leading bogeymen of Democrats up to and including Senate Minority Leader Harry Reid, who has accused the brothers of trying to buy American democracy while avoiding scrutiny.

Just how do you buy.....? Oh, nevermind.

Actually a fair article from Politico, a spin off from the Washington Compost. All told, I still take this site with a healthy helping of salt. Mike Allen is a hard and fast liberal idiot, so watch what you read there.

I see no signs of the reported ‘slowing down.’ None.

I would love for the Koch brothers to keep the amount of Soros donations fresh in their minds.

Then, every time they are challenged by a reporter just respond "Soros gave $$$ to liberal organizations last year. When we approach anywhere near that number, get back with us", then walk off.

I would love for David Koch to drop his support of abortion and gay marriage.
