Because they are not obsessed with the Soros family?

ing Kansas!
Boutons
The guy you were ing about here:
Thanks for that link to one of Soros' pet projects.
Try this one:

Bush's tax cuts for high earners "have been the biggest contributor to the budget deficit."
But since Boutons likes pictures, try this one.
Political Calculus:
TPd * TPr = CM
Where:
TPd = Talking points of Democrats related to the Koch Brothers
TPr = Talking points of Republicans related to Obamacare & Benghazi
CM = Critical mass of bull where the collective minds of America implode
"The top 5 percent of earners (those making about $225,000 or more) received 30.5 percent of the tax benefits in 2008, according to their analysis. But conversely, the bottom 95 percent of tax payers got 70 percent. Zoom out from the top 5 percent to the top 20 percent, and their share is 47.8 percent. Critics of the Bush tax cuts can call that disproportionate, but it's still less than half and therefore not "the biggest."
bull
what are $Ts, absolutel $ not percentages, of tax cuts for the 5% and then 95%
Yes.
You see how both parties have large obsessions with big donors who are convinced they know the American way.
I said BOTH parties Boots.
Should I just bump all of Darrin's Krugman threads at once?
Obamacare is winning in the polls and Benghazi is a wingnut fantasy....the Kock brothers are dumping 100's of millions of dollars into elections to buy our government..big difference....
If there are 134 references, then I'm more obsessed than Harry Reid.
Can someone explain to me how Soros financially benefits from his political objectives? The false equivalency between him and the Kochs is pretty re ed.

The Koch brothers support candidates against universal health care and then all their free market crap, climate...
I don't see how opposing universal health care is a big winner for them.
The equivalency is in that they give large sums of money because they know what is right for their America. Both Koch and Soros families could be accused of making their fortunes in a sleazy manner as well.
Between your two screen names, there are 130.
thinking the Koch Brothers actually believe their political objectives are good for America
Yeah why would anyone be concerned by the expanding amount of political clout carried by a shrinking amount of people? Stop whining, you whiny whiners!
