16. Better if our side fund organizers to get poor people to register to vote
and help poor people defeat active republican efforts to prevent them from registering. We are better off in 2012 if our lawyers and brains spend time getting voters registered and fired up to vote in all elections, local, state and national.

29. That's the problem
Their side has the majority of the wealth, and full control of the media.

19. my brother and I have not written any checks
but presumably you mean the OTHER Koch brothers (besides my dad and his brothers, or my grandfather and his brother or my cousins and their brothers) - the infamous ones.

But is there evidence for this, or is that speculation?

23. I usually call them "Americans for the Prosperous"
otherwise they sound like a good organization. Who is against prosperity?

25. Hey!
Did somebody bus you in from Michigan? You have not been around in a while. For many months now people have been able to claim "when unemployment runs out, people are no longer counted as unemployed" without having their a$$ handed to them on a magic bus.

28. It's hard to eradicate stupid.
We're awash in disinformation and falsehoods. It's a tsunami of stupid. That one has always been particularly noxious ... a dandelion in a lawn overrun with crabgrass. :silly:

13. Of course they are. Free rides are what they're all about...FOR THEM.
For everyone else, it's "suffer you bastards. I got mine!"

14. They are "free-riders" in life
The August-Follies were "free-rides" on fancy buses, after "free training seminars" all over the country.. These people pretend to be angry, in exchange for a bus-party & a box lunch..:grr:



They "won" the day last November, and are always ready to hop back on the crazy-train when the master calls them on the dogwhistle.

18. Let them get the free rides.
Our side would spend it's time better getting poor and democratic leaning young people registered to vote and defeating republican efforts to prevent registration. The Koch brothers are just ape shit kooks, the real battle is in precincts getting voters registered and ready to vote and getting them out on election day in all races. If we do out job right, we win big, fuck the Koch brothers.
