A Quote From The 1%... "I Want My Fair Share, And That's ALL Of It."
Edited on Thu Nov-17-11 08:52 PM by WillyT
From Greg Palast: A Quote From The 1% (The Koch Brothers)

Why the Billionaires Need to Buy the White House

A Koch Industries executive (not knowing he was being taped) said he had asked Charles Koch, who already had a billion from an inheritance, why Koch was pocketing a few bucks a week from poor Indians. Koch told him, "I want my fair share, and that's all of it."

And "all of it", of course, includes the White House.


Putting Bush in the White House was worth his weight in gold to these gents—more, in fact. And now, the Kochs, Singer and Langone have teamed to pick a candidate they pray can take back their real estate at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue.

5. Those evil assholes need to be placed in the tumbrel
and wheeled past a modern day Madame Lafarge on their way to the National Razor. And it can't happen soon enough. :grr:
