XLNT! Conservatives Are Furious With Harry Reid For Warring With The Kochs

Conservatives Are Furious With Harry Reid For Warring With The Kochs :

Harry Reid's war on the Koch brothers -- the wealthy oil tycoons who are spending millions to defeat Democrats in the 2014 mid-terms -- has sparked an intense backlash from Republicans and prominent conservatives.

The feud has grown acrimonious and personal over the last few weeks, with figures on the right leaping to the defense of the Kochs and even suggesting that the Democratic Senate majority leader is mentally unstable.

I theorize it's because they are a new species of vampire - Vampirious Corporataticus.

I don't give them Hell. I just tell the truth about them and they think it's Hell.

Personally, I don't believe or agree with anyone who claims telling the Truth is somehow a "declaration of war"--politically or otherwise.

They're trying to equate the two positions? Truth VS an Op-Ed defense written by and read for a self perceived victim on the Senate floor by "their" very own GOP Senator?

to DECLARE WAR on the Koch Brothers!
I want my COUNTRY back I don't want us to remain a Oligarchy!
Yes REMAIN, its time for us to admit that America has become an Oligarchy, ruled by billionaires & corporations!
Our Politicians have become Koch Addicts including a lot of democrats.
Time to vote them all out in 2014 & 16!

it's wrong somehow to identify the perpetrator? My logic chip must be broken, I'll come back after I initiate repairs.

He has surely proven me wrong the last couple of years and has come out fighting many times when I may not have expected it!

it's obviously WORKING as a strategy, just as the Romney hidden camera footage finished him off...there will ALWAYS be a bartender or a maid or a waiter to ferret these guys out and they know it!
