If you fund Freedom you are a target.

Notice how evil people call good people evil. Look in the mirror Harry Reid if you want to see evil.

Yeah.. but the Koch Bros are evil -

$15 million to New York-Presbyterian’s Weill Cornell Medical Center
$30 million to Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center
$25 million to the Hospital for Special Surgery
$20 million to a dinosaur exhibit at the American Museum of Natural History
$65 million to the Metropolitan Museum of Art
$100 million to the Lincoln Center theater that is home to the New York City Ballet and the New York City Opera.

I’m not a fan of the tactic of trying to deflect attacks about a company/organization/person’s main business by playing up unrelated charitable activities. There is nothing wrong with their main business activities, making profits, or supporting political candidates. There is all manner of something wrong with the senate majority leader effectively accusing the Kochs of sedition from the senate floor. If a political party will stoop to this level to defame wealthy citizens who have the means to fight back, what do you think they will do with us nobodies who can’t afford a full page ad in the new york times.

As if we didn’t already have plenty of reasons to detest Harry Reid! Now it appears he is an anti-Semite, too.

In certain Circles of the Insane you may have seen that smear financier George Soros (Dr. Evil) is actually described as a “philanthropist” as well.
