Are The Koch Brothers’ Old Asses On Their Way Out?

[GoLeft TV]

Charles Koch is sad that he and his brother don’t have as much influence over the 2016 election as they had hoped. In an interview with The Financial Times, Koch lamented the fact that he and his brother David had presented all of the Republican candidates with a list of things that they wanted to get out of the next president, and the candidates didn’t seem to care too much about those demands.

So because the candidates were not immediately willing to sign off on the Koch checklist, the Koch brothers think they don’t have enough power in the political process.

2. Is that a whine I'm hearing?

Poor babies there's a diagnosis for whiners like these two guys and it's called "whiney ass white man syndrome"!! Very fitting for the likes of these two.

3. I don't believe them. If they're complaining they aren't getting their way, it means they've

already gotten it. We'll see how it plays out, but I think they're crying wolf.

4. Aaaaaw.....the poor dears.

They're about to be hoist by their own petards.

5. Do not underestimate their power at the state level.

They are using Mary Fallin in Oklahoma to gut public education. They can do much more damage in state and local elections than they can at the national level.

6. Stunning sense of entitlement, commensurate with the 0.001% worldview. eom
