Some Democrats noticed it seems.

From a leftist journalist tweet:

But Hillary told everyone that Bernie is a Koch puppet, and Clintons never lie https://t.co/kaTidwO9M8 pic.twitter.com/aclxEBETyN— Mark Ames (@MarkAmesExiled) April 24, 2016

Dana PeRino and the rest of the RINO crew at Fox News agree.

” Charlie sure isn’t very bright.”

Au contrare! Charlie is very smart. He’s simply looking out for his personal interests, which in no way have anything to do with the people of this country. He’s simply one of “members” of the Board of Directors of America, Inc. To him, America isn’t a country, it’s a corporation.

Based on what exactly?

I think a lot of people assume Bill would “help” her. That may be true, but she will still have the final say.

Bill was a pretty good President being that he was able to work with Congress. But his wife, never. She is one evil, nasty person who will sell out America, well she already has as Sec of State.

The Kochs have infiltrated the GOP with their Americans for Prosperity. They favor amnesty and the importation of more cheap foreign labor. It is all about the bottom line.

I’ll never understand people who want to wrap up their perception of reality into a neat, little, all-encompassing conspiracy theory. It’s simplistic, silly and ridiculous.

Carlin’s theory is that rich people are controlling everything. Truly nutty.

The fact is, what’s wrong with our country cannot be blamed on some boogeyman out there conspiratizing against us. What’s wrong is that the majority of the common man keeps asking for bigger and bigger government to take more control, tax them more, give them more and solve more of their problems. We have bad education because the government has a monopoly on it. The principles of capitalism are what works. If we privatize education, it will get 10,000% better.

Charlie needs to tell that to the families of the four Americans Clinton left to die in Benghazi by the country they loved as well as all of those who were killed and will be killed as a result of her openly “sharing” intelligence information with the entire world through her own “private server.” Charlie sure isn’t very bright.


Well stated, that coupled with Billy Jeff starting the “ legal authority” approach to Bin Laden and not taking him out when he could have shows the Clintons consider people to be “ cannon fodder” in the way of their own personal gains.

It was a Rep Congress starting in 1995. I wish the Senate had approved his impeachment. He was an utter disgrace as a President.

First, the Kochs are Libertarians, not conservatives.

Second, Bill Clinton had a pragmatic streak, and did some good things amidst the overwhelming junk - albeit generally kicking and screaming before he tried to take credit for it.

Third, all of the candidates have serious flaws. There is going to be difference in relative importance assigned to such flaws - though I myself find there to be a huge difference between either of the particular Democrat candidates and any of the Republicans.

Fourth, even with Trump, it remains an open question as to which Trump he’d actually be. Some are much better than others.

How can a Koch brother actually not see that Trump is an incredibly better option?

The Kochs don't agree with his policies on immigration and trade. They are globalists. They profit from an inexhaustible supply of cheap labor and special interest trade deals. They could give a sh*t about the American worker.

First, the Kochs are Libertarians, not conservatives - that nonsense again like it means anything. I mentioned uni-party not factions within parties.

The GOP is composed of at least 6 different factions of ideology under one roof just like the Democrats. But in teh end they all serve the oligarchy.

This whole election is a laugh-riot.

In a sort of admittedly dark-humored way.

Every grim opinion I’ve had towards the status of the country and its people has been confirmed. In spades.

Welfare Reform, A Balanced Budget, and Reduced Taxes?

Newt Gingrich and “The Contract with America”.
