Dems In Denial: High on Koch

There has been so much brouhaha about the Koch Brothers lately.

Check out this bitter remark:

Speaking of the Koch Bros (or, as you spell it here, “Kock”—must be Freudian, eh, Artie?), here’s some stunning hypocrisy from America’s sleaziest billionaire bros:

Yes, indeed, speaking of the Koch Brothers and hypocrisy: they funded Democratic candidates, and what thanks do they get from the Dems?

“The Koch Brothers are un-American.”

Really?

But this statement was really interesting:

Here's something far more interesting than your Koch a**-kissing:

This post came from Robert. . Karlton, who for some reason could not write his last name on my blog post. Was he too ashamed of his cursed rhetoric to identify with it fully?

But I digress. . .

All this talk about Koch-envy, Kock butt-kissing, and Koch appeal, is all quite entertaining, since the reproach of foolish comments means more glory for the victors.

Liberals are obsessed with the Koch Brothers, enough that even NPR had to report on their substance-disturbance.

Now, take a look at this very revealing list of Koch recipients.

US Senator Mark Pryor (D-Arkansas) was called out by the Arkansas Times:

Former Arkansas journalist Paul Barton, writing for Gannett newspapers in Washington, has contributed a story to the Baxter Bulletin about a rare Democrat — U.S. Sen. Mark Pryor — enjoying financial support from the billionaire Koch brothers’ interests.

And then…

The Koch brothers, the Kansas industrialists known for lending their financial support to Tea Party Republicans, have given more campaign dollars recently to Democratic Sen. David Pryor than any other member of the Arkansas congressional delegation.

In fact, one would be hard-pressed to find a Democrat nationwide who receives more support from Koch Industries than the $35,000 that employees of the firm and its political action committee, Koch PAC, have given to Pryor since 2007.

Where’s the outrage, Senator Reid? Why haven’t you called out your colleague  Mark Pryor, who has been Koched out?

Reid’s hypocrisy, sadly, goes deeper than ignoring his colleagues’ dependency. Of course, such blasted blather about the Kochs buying American has gotten Senator Reid in quite a lather—check out his latest tweet making the Koch Brothers the one enemy that the Dems try to rally around.

However, most of the response tweets want to know where Reid gets his money.

Could it be true that Reid got Koch money once?

Point of fact, and point of order, YES! From a lobbyist working for Koch industries, specifically. (Source: OpenSecrets, Freebeacon.com)

Reid calls the Koch Brothers un-American, but took their money at one time. Well.

And here's another Senate Dem leader who was sniffing Koch when no one was looking: Chuck Schumer of New York.

I have attached a letter from New York's senior US senator, the guy with a bridge in Brooklyn he’d like to sell you:, whatever it takes to get anyone to donate or vote Dem in this terrible year, which is getting worse for Democratic leaders Obama-Reid-Pelosi.

Addiction will take people to desperate, dire straits. Intervention! (Source: Poewerlineblog.com)

And now we find that Democratic US Senator Mary Landrieu also took Koch money, but at the same time her party leaders want to blast Republican ties for working with Koch industries. Mary, you have a problem. But we can help you get off Koch. But you need to help yourself first!

This just in: Democrat Joe Manchin of West Virginia likes Koch, too! From Politico:

Sen. Joe Manchin on Thursday strongly defended the Koch brothers from attacks by fellow Democrats, saying the wealthy and politically active businessmen are taxpaying Americans who are creating jobs.

“People want jobs. You don’t beat up people. I mean, I don’t agree with their politics or philosophically, but, you know, they’re Americans, they’re doing— paying their taxes,” Manchin said on Fox News’s “Fox & Friends.”

What is especially revealing about this exchange? A Democratic Senator shared his views on FOX News, and left-wing Politico reports it! Wow! If the liberal screed-trolls on Patch or elsewhere take exception to this statement, then they have no credibility to comment.

Robert (Karlton?) ought to explain: Is Democrat Joe Machin kissing Koch's a**, too?

Now, when someone is suffering from a mind-altering addiction, the first thing that the addicted person will do is deny their problem, then project the perversion onto someone else.

(I wonder if the Democrats' children are ashamed to bring their friends home, too?)

These Dems need an intervention. They need to admit that they are powerless over Koch, and it is making their life unmanageable. Perhaps their higher power, Big Government and their guru Barack Obama can restore them to sanity.

Then again, as we all know, like alcoholism, this pattern of lying and deceit billowing out of the US Senate’s Democratic Majority is not a disease, nor a character defect, but rather a dedicated and desperate attempt to play down their five-six years of record failure, from Obamacare to foreign policy flaps, to these desiccated attacks on free speech. This un-America tyranny, now exposed as a rank hypocrisy, must end.

Oh, by the way, Democrats, most Americans have not even heard of the Koch Brothers. They are not addicted, like the liberals, Democrats, and static statists whose blind faith in this failed Democratic President has no defensible support left.

Reid-Pryor-Schumer-Landrieu-Manchin need a sponsor and work a program. Malibu is a great place to recover (or at least get famous while trying to, a la Lindsey Lohan!)

And one more question: who is the one into Koch a**-kissing now? I think the Dems see the Koch Brothers as some kind of Sugar Daddy. Well it that's the case, then so be it!
