(31,818 posts)They also threw the Mormons under the bus. Yeah - I know it's crazy but it is true. Black folks and Mormons were the target dujour for their targeting.
Connect the dots -
Rushdooney and the Koch Brothers Daddy.
These dots lead to a man by the name of Howard F. Ahmanson
Who is hooked in with James Dobson
And James Dobson's 'movement' had a huge influx of cash from Edgar and Elsa Prince.
And Elsa Remarried after Edgar died - and her name is now Elsa Prince Broekhuizen. She's still a member of what I understand folks in Western Michigan refer to as the 'Dutch Mafia'. In Holland MI - at one time they were the largest employer. She has four children.
Her oldest daughter goes by the name Betsy. She was born Elizabeth Prince and married into the Devos family prior to her father Edgar's death. Her husband is THE Devos of Amway fame.
Elsa's youngest goes by the name Erik - he actually testified in front of Congress about 7 years ago for his company's involvement in some of the horrors they were involved in Iraq.
Elsa - she gave a HUGE chunk to keep same sex couples from being married out of California in 2008.
The Devos Clan is giving heavily to causes to bring about the end of Public Education.
Erik Prince - in April was at a meeting of Hedgies in NYC to discuss/push Charter schools in Manhattan.
The Koch brothers are giving 25 Million to the UNCF - perhaps hoping to bring unaware young black collegiate level students at the Historically black Universities and colleges into their fold - as reported last week.
When you take EACH of these dots separately - they don't amount to much.
But when you lay it all out - when you connect the dots - it becomes crystal clear.
I'm stating it outside of the AA Group -we cannot afford for them to prevent the rights of the GLBT community. A strike against the GLBT community - after those 'dots' blamed that HUGE strike on us - it's a strike against us.
And I'm posting this to you because you ARE young hip and aware and will tell others.
