Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid preemptively slammed the budget proposal Rep. Paul Ryan (R-Wis.) will release Tuesday, calling it a document written to pander to the Koch brothers and other billionaires.
“It’s a blueprint for a modern… how would we say this? Koch-topia. Yes, that’s it,” Reid said. “Call it whatever you want. We might as well call it the Koch budget because that’s what they’re doing, protecting the Koch brothers.”
Reid’s remarks mark the latest volley in Democrats’ mid-term election year strategy of attacking the Kochs repeatedly, hoping to fire up their liberal base and associate Republicans with the brothers in the minds of voters. And while a poll last week showed that most Americans don’t know who the Koch brothers are, 45 percent of self-identified liberals said they have a negative opinion of them.
Reid dared conservative outside groups to “fire away” at him for his fiery election-year attacks on the billionaire Koch brothers.
Speaking after the group American Encore spent $30,000 on Monday airing ads in Nevada dinging Reid for “attacking free speech,” the Senate majority leader launched a rebuttal aimed at Charles and David Koch, harshly criticizing their role in politics and influence among Republicans.
Reid called American Encore one of the Kochs’ “puppet organizations,” likening it to Americans for Prosperity, the Koch-backed group that’s poured millions in attack ads onto vulnerable Senate Democrats for their support of Obamacare and climate change stances.

There must not be any way for old Harry Greed to profit from this bill. But I’m sure he could add an amendment for us all to pay for a bridge to some property he owns.
They are billionaires, living rent free in Harry’s head and about to have him ousted as Majority Leader. They are already living in Koch-topia.
Everyone should send old Dingy a roll of toilet paper, courtesly of the Koch Bros.
Harry sounds all coked-up.
Guy needs detox.
Hey Harry, how did you amass a fortune of several million dollars on a United States Senate salary, huh? What a joke and fraud this guy is. It’s desperation time for the Democrats now so get ready for class, gender, and racial warfare on a huge scale from this point on until November. Dingy Harry is going to get more nastier and shrill. Good, let that fool go on and on. Americans are worried more about their pocketbooks than his class warfare rantings.
Or KODS ? Anyway it's a shame him showing off his KODS in the Senate. ( One for you Shakespearean scholars)
Stinky, Dingy Harry sure has the hots for the Koch Bros. He’s a senile old fool.
The Koch’s don’t enter into my daily thoughts, but they seem to rent space in these Democrat’s heads.
It’s really a little weird and bizarre.
Well if it would end up protecting the Koch brothers, wouldn’t also end up protecting many more liberal socialist elitist billionaires? Why not call it Soros-topia? Oh yeah because Soros is Reids type of America hating liberal socialist elitist billionaire that happens to fund the demonrats in both legal and unethical illegal ways.
Harry needs to take that Koch-stick out of his ***.
They do. They fund organizations that attack the Dems in the same way.
Here’s a good article and some expamples:

Here is one attacking Mr. Senile:
I honestly have to ask. Does Reid even know who the Koch brothers are and what their companies produce? I seriously doubt it. There are some seriously deranged and, dare I say, evil people in congress, but I do believe Harry Reid is the worst of the worst.
I’d hate to have Harry’s nightmares.
Harry Reid is becoming a one trick pony.
Harry Reid is the message boy for the power behind the throne. He’s the one who told obama to run for president.
