These right wing fucks®, including the Kochs, might well be the greatest threat this nation has ever faced including the WWII Fascists.

calling them loafers, lazy, whiners, welfare cheats, making us a food stamp nation, takers, etc. he gets to express in the WSJ how it hurts his feelings...and the millions his money hurt and continues to harm don't have a media outlet to express their feelings........................EXCEPT AT THE BALLOT BOX. I hope we all take our grievances there.

but can't take it when the tables turned with effing facts. Weak much? I keep hearing and reading about how weak Pres O is. Yea right, all the name calling and character assassination thrown at Pres O and I don't hear him constantly whining and being a victim.

And there is some incredibly nasty shit thrown at him, even on this the DU.

Of course you won't because you are the picture of evil.

from all corners!! If there is anything that bugs the super-wealthy it's being criticized by the minions. It's a situation they can't control and it will drive them nuts - with luck - for all to see.

Good pic!

...it's always somebody else's fault. And the world revolves around Charles Koch.

In his money, he's got the money to back up the statement that "the world revolves around him" - and his ilk.

They're getting increasingly transparent, because they believe we can't do a damned thing now that "they" own the government and the courts - lock, stock, barrel.

46. Defamation of character
Sun Apr 6, 2014, 12:48 AM
Apr 2014

Everybody who put up money to sponsor the birther movement (and other right-wing conspiracy theories about Obama) should be sued for defamation of character. It was simply an attempt to defame Barrack Obama in order to defeat him in 2012. At the high point the rumours about what new dictatorial powers Obama was planning reached ludicrous proportions, but sold lots of copies of Limbaughs subscription letter, and Glenn Becks private network, http://www.forbes.com/sites/jeffbercovici/2012/03/15/glenn-beck-closes-in-on-the-100-million-mark/

Let Koch and the rest of these bastards lose some more money in court.

One drops out, and the other one pops up to carp about what a burden their wealth is. No wonder I'm getting sick of hearing from them. It's like if Donald Trump had a loudmouth twin brother.

If they were smart, they'd lay low like their friends at the country club. You don't hear open declarations of class warfare from the Waltons on a daily basis. I don't even know their first names.
