I like Cruz and Fiorina, but sucking up to the Koch’s on our side is as bad as the leftys sucking up to Soros

Well there are 2 other choices. 1. only billionaires run for president. Or 2. we have publically funded elections where only DC approved candidates are allowed to run on taxpayer dollars.

Which do you prefer?

MAN are we getting a lot of left wing lunacy posted to Free Republic of late, without so much a by your leave or even a barf alert! "What's up wit' dat?" (tm)

Look at the title again Company Man, this had a Barf Alert!

[Moorings]

Not to mention that the use of the term "whore" is hateful and derogatory toward hard working americans involved in the sexual profession. Considering that Cruz and the Koch brothers are men, the use of that word is also homoprobic.

[BigEdLB]

Unfortunately you may both be right... But it still bothers me.

Joy to the world! My bud, Hrafnkell Haraldsson is back. What a boon he is. I can read one of his diatribes and have my mind as twisted as if I’d toked a joint all by myself....and yet I could pass a breathalyzer or blood test with zero evidence against me. Thanks Hrafny, old sod.

[Company Man]

Oops, sorry. I retract all. You certainly are not a primary offender of the source of my wrath. Mea culpa, no mas.

In 2010 the $12 million spent on the race for my congressional district was the most ever spent on a race in my district. The papers insinuated that it was “Big GOP” money but when the funding was examined, my GOP congressmen spent $4 million to the Democrat’s $8 million (Most of which came from unions)

I never thought I would live to see the day when “conservatives” wanted republicans to turn down funding and give every race to democrats without a fight.

Who are George Soros’s paid whores?

[Moorings]

Shhhh.. you’re not supposed to ask that question.

[Company Man]

Here's another site with an article about the Koch confab sans the hateful moonbattery of nonminal-sounding :politics USA". Trigger warning: This is not a conservative site; it is a RINO squish site. But that's got to be an improvement over what has been posted until now, IMNSHO:

Inside the Koch Brothers' SoCal Confab

Corrected link, caveats still apply:

I’m not even going to read through this crap.

...sucking up to the Koch’s on our side is as bad as the leftys sucking up to Soros

The Koch brothers are akin to scumbag Soros is what way, exactly? WTH are you talking about?

[BigEdLB]

They of course are not at that level.

[BigEdLB]

My post’s point was misunderstood. The fact that some of them make a trip to see the Koch brothers though speaks volumes.

[Duchess47]

It really bothers me also. Anytime someone donates millions of dollars they expect to be heard down the road. What’s the politician going to do if they don’t like the suggestion/request? Say, here, have your 10 million back?

[FreeReign]

The pol can simply say no to the request.

[Duchess47]

I don’t think saying no would work if they want more money down the road for the next election. That person wouldn’t give them more and word would get around, making the possibility of getting other very large donors much harder.

You seem concerned.

Why don't you get John McCain, the MSM and the Democrats to further regulate our first amendment rights.
