Thats part of the problem today. The wealthy have much more influence over government than the poor who can't donate huge sums of money to candidates to ensure their voices are heard.

I'd like to see the internal memo rather than rely on the credibility of the Washington Examiner.
As A Teapartier, I had never heard of the Koch Brothers. I don't know of anyone who recognized that name or received any money. It would be nice if someone fronted the money for much of the fees and permits and hoops that tea partiers had to secure that the occupiers don't. As for Romney and Koch. That says to me that The Koch Brothers as well as Mitt Romney are Republican party line folk...and that will not sit well with tea partiers when the voting starts. but it occurs to me....isn't the tea party dead? Why are we even talking about it. I thought there was SO much evidence prior to Mr. Romney running for president that gave proof that the tea party was bankrolled by the Koch Brothers. Who is bankrolling and supporting the rampaging rioting marxist occupiers? Since they're so popular and receive so much support from democrat politicians and our president, shouldn't we really be talking the occupiers up? Here's a picture of what Men's Warehouse got for voicing their support of the Occupiers. http://www.theatlantic.com/politics/...street/247782/ Last edited by Calypso Jones; 11-03-2011 at 10:09 PM.. |

I would not necessarily call the Koch brothers a "financial engine for the Tea Party."
While FreedomWorks and Americans for Prosperity have donated and supported them to a degree, I hardly think they are some financial engine for the group. They are no different than hundreds and thousands of other rich entities who sling their money around in the name of politics. Koch Industries have many interests. The Tea Party is just one of them.
