Sadly, most of the tech billionaires are left wingers, and they DO throw money at leftist candidates.

LOL - I suspect the Kochs bothers won’t lose any sleep over this idiocy. And they might even be quietly pleased democrats are throwing so much money away on silly name calling...

Don’t forget the third and perhaps biggest goal:

3. To extort money for progressive (neo-fascist) political causes out of other and future billionaires with the promise that they will be left in peace if they give enough. In other words, its the Chicago way of doing politics (think Al Capone): “Pay us, and you won’t have union troubles or unexplained fires.” Buffett, Gates, Soros, Steyer, Blumberg, and many others have been playing this game with progressives for a long time. For them it is simply like buying insurance.

We may have reached a tipping point. Obama got the RATS where they are because of arrogance and overreach.

He's a community organizer at heart, he can't help himself. We'll have to invent a new word for 'overreach' to describe the next two years.

He'll set the RATS back 20 years.

I come from a limb of the Koch tree and over the decades I have heard it both ways. Apparently pronunciation can be anyway one prefers. Pronounced as “Kotch” reminds me of a Russian family version. Pronounced as ‘Coke’ makes me think of German roots which even some Russian migrates preferred using. My Lutheran confirmation pastor preferred the ‘coke’ sound but deferred to my parents ‘kotch’ pronunciation.

why don’t you answer the two very simple direct questions. I mean look, you can go on in ignorance and make yourself so unhappy - a common trait among too many here on FR - or you can learn a little something, and be less unhappy.

They do have some libertarian leanings, but they are pretty doggoned close to Reagan conservatism. That should make you happy, not snotty.

The bulk of their philanthropy is nonpolitical (arts, education). One of them founded CATO which is about as pure libertarian as you can get. I would say their main focus is free markets, small government, but you can’t ignore the fact that they are pro legalization and pro gay marriage.
