The Rightwing Koch Bros. Funded the DLC --

This occurred over a 20 year period while the Koch Bros DLC was harbored within

the Democratic Party, infiltrating the party and influencing it's agenda, its selection

of candidates and even its presidential candidates.

9. I could give you a reasonable guess of who it was, but

that would probably be breaking DU rules.

[JTFrog]

22. Unrec.

For Spam.

Since you asked.

The DLC is already dead.



:shrug:

[mdmc]

24. "The DLC is dead"

No, they just went underground. All ya need to do is look for the circle D and there you will find the dlc..

[Enthusiast]

26. PLUS ONE!

The circle part means they have we real Democrats surrounded.

[mdmc]

33. yes

36. The "professional" paid for DLC .nt

[Enthusiast]

25. One of his paid minions.

One of the anti-patriots.

4. Koch ran for pres way back in the 80's. While doing it he figured out

where the real decisions are made. No need to run for office anymore, you just put money in the right places.

31. Congress members are agents for the wealthy. Nothing more. Some throw us crumbs but

only if the wealthy benefit. Bernie Sanders, though, is a big crumb tosser. He's the guy that will feed the pigeons in the park every day, because he cares about the pigeons. However, his main job isn't as pigeonkeeper. He's also an agent for the wealthy. No one is perfect. That said, I still wish every member of Congress was like Bernie Sanders.

7. DLC took MONEY from THE KOCH BROTHERS to run CAMPAIGNS against PROGRESSIVES??????? n/t

14. Koch Bros. FUNDED the DLC ......

When Clinton won the nomination, he knew that the unions didn't have enough

money to fund the kind of campaign he wanted to run -- he brought in DLC

which was funded by the Koch Bros --


Do you recall any Democrats ever mentioning that they were harboring the

Koch Bros DLC organization within the party?

Needless to say, this was infiltration of the party --

influence over the party --

15. Oh How I Know....

I love that you continue to stay on top of it.

My post was more of a parody of another thread...

:hi:

[defendandprotect]

32. Thank you --

Sad to say that this info has been available here at DU via other posters

and kept getting buried -- back to 2006, at least -- or earlier --

[bullwinkle428]

27. NO! NO! Look over there! It's all Jane Hamsher's fault!!1!

;)

[wiggs]

8. brilliant. see if talk shows pick it up and discuss it as an important bit of

knowledge that should be discussed!!

If not, moveon or others should pay for a commercial run in prime time. What could be more important?

[Raine]

10. I guess the Kochroach brothers deserve to win

they sure outsmarted our side, we were left in the dust. Working on this for at least 20 years :wow: the rest of us went on with our lives but that was THEIR LIFE. The progressives need to come up with at least a 10-20 year plan. Of course it would be too late for some of us but until our side has a long range plan we will be defeated again and again and again. :-(

You can't post the Koch Brothers' DLC connection information enough, imho. People need to see WHY we're faced with the major political party's same non-choices each election cycle.

[OwnedByFerrets]

21. Sen Sanders is one of my heros.

[BlueCaliDem]

23. K&R! Senator Sanders: the way Democratic pols are *supposed* to be. eom

[Hell Hath No Fury]

Thank you, Bernie!

As mentioned above, this cannot be talked about enough. This is essential infirmation to understand how the Democratic Party got to it's current incarnation.

29. My opinion of what the Koch brothers deserve:

[felix_numinous]

30. Get Robber Barons OUT of government!!

We are in the Gilded Age of the 21st Century----->BIG MONEY IS THE NEXUS<-----that all other issues are ORBITING around. It is the KEY.

WE ARE THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY!

:hug: Bernie Sanders!!

37. Thank you Bernie for pulling more of the curtain back and

showing where the echo chamber to raise the retirement age is coming from: KOCH.
