In reply to the discussion: "Wow" Reid mocks 'Morning Joe' interview of Kochs [View all]lark
(23,097 posts)12. I watched a few minutes of this debacle.
They didn't one time ask about John Birch Society which their father founded. They didn't question their bonafides on the environment, even when Koch told an out and out lie. They are dirty and their GA Pacific dealings with FL waterways proves it all day. They put down crony capitalist but don't tell the truth that that's exactly what they are. They made many of their billions from the government paying them insane rates, (zero income tax, let me add) for their oil services businesses. It was so vile and sickening, I was yelling at them to actually ask him important questions and quit the freaking love fest as I turned off the TV.
