1. Teabaggers get so radically hateful toward Obama and Democrats,
Edited on Wed Aug-25-10 05:47 AM by bulloney
yet the people they follow and uphold have their roots in the very causes they claim to be fighting. The Koch family assisted Joseph Stalin in building the Soviet oil industry. Prescott Bush, grandfather of President Dumbass, served on a bank board that helped finance Adolph Hitler. The second largest shareholder of Faux Snooze is a member of the Muslim Saudi Royal Family.

Are these teabaggers so dense that they can't see the sheer hypocrisy? (Rhetorical question. We all know the answer.)

2. Read somewhere in my 'teens that the paper industries helped to write "The marijuana tax act" of
1937 legislation

From Wiki

"DuPont, William Randolph Hearst, and hemp

The decision of the United States Congress to pass the Marijuana Tax Act of 1937 was based on hearings,<19> reports<20> and in part on testimony derived from articles in newspapers owned by William Randolph Hearst, who had significant financial interests in the timber industry, which manufactured his newsprint.<21>..."

Wonder how far back Koch and Georgia-Pacific go and how much they had to do with this...?
