Political attacks on the Koch brothers have emerged as a key, practically everyday part of Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid and his Democratic Party’s 2014 election strategy -- accusing the wealthy conservative donors of trying to buy elections and block aid to Ukraine.
The attacks began in earnest last month when the Nevada Democrat in notable floor speeches accused Charles and David Koch of being “un-American” and “trying to buy America” and continued straight through this week.
“Across the country Republican Senate candidates are embracing a dangerous agenda that’s good for billionaires like the Koch Brothers and bad for nearly everyone else in the country,” the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee said Thursday in announcing a record-breaking February fundraising haul of $6.8 million.
That Democrats would attack the Kochs, or mount a counter-attack, is to be expected, considering how their money was instrumental in helping conservative nonprofits assist Republicans in taking the House in the 2010 midterm elections. Furthermore, Reid argues the Kochs are really trying to "buy" elections to advance their self-serving corporate interests of lower taxes and less regulation.

10 or 15 years ago, it was Richard Scaife who was the Republican bogey-man.
They’re libertarians, and that’s Big-L libertarians. Pro-abortion, pro-homosexual marriage...they may support free market capitalism but on social issues they stink.

Is Rand Paul a “Big-L” Libertarian? Doesn’t really matter. Since he endorsed, and is working for, Mitch McConnell in the GOP Primary against Matt Bevin (a real Conservative), I’ll never vote for the little, curly-haired asshole for anything. (Not to mention, his niece’s husband is McConnell’s Campaign Mgr.)
Has anyone ever added up Soros’ total ‘contributions’ through his various surrogates?

Buy elections? is that like stealing elections aka voter fraud?
Fight back, fight back, fight back!
Tell the world what George Soros has done, who and what he’s funded, who and what he controls. What is wrong with conservatives that they never fight back?
