Koch v. Kennedy: Philanthropist Versus Narcissist
Radix News ^ | October 3, 2014 | Larry Kudlow

Posted on 10/03/2014 9:04:00 PM PDT by Abakumov

A couple of weeks ago at New York’s Metropolitan Museum of Art, several hundred people went to their feet to applaud a speech delivered by David H. Koch. The occasion was the opening of the Met’s new facade on Fifth Avenue. ... Mr. Koch contributed the entire $65 million cost of the project, which took years to complete.

The Left demonizes David Koch and his brother Charles for their free-market views, their political donations, and the fact that they run a substantial energy company. Harry Reid has made a new career of it, calling them “un-American.” But on the platform that morning were liberal Democrats Jerrold Nadler and Carolyn Maloney. Ms. Maloney was particularly gracious when she said, “There is hope for the world when Koch and I can agree on something. On this we agree 100 percent.”

Now, contrast that with the arrogant, intolerant, petulant, radical-left environmentalist Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. Last week, at the People’s Climate March in New York, he accused the Kochs of polluting our atmosphere. He said, “Do I think the Koch brothers are treasonous? Yes, I do.” He added, “I think they should be enjoying three hots and a cot at The Hague with all the other war criminals.”

Treason?

It would be fascinating to get some data on the charitable giving of some of these Kennedys. I imagine it’s similar to most Lefty radicals, meager at best.

Kennedies. Can’t drive, can’t fly, can’t boat, can’t ski.

Obscure joke:

You hear Egypt Air is having a sale?
For $50 they will take you from JFK to JRK Jr.

One person who used to work for Joe Kennedy’s Trusts said this generation didn’t even know how to obtain a Driver’s License.
