Saw a part of Anthony Mason's interview,

with Charles Koch this morning, as the danger of 'dark money' buying elections was discussed. Koch laughed and said, 'It's not dark, I'm transparent on who I give it to', which has a bit of Repub 'truthiness' to it. It goes to his rightwingnut shadow operations, and disappears from view, :
'It's legal,' said Koch, (and it is, since the Supremes(R) sold out to Big Money), as it was shown his money supported the rise and continuation of the Tea Party, which threatens to 'shut down' the govt with their coalition of about 40 rightwingnutjobs in the House(R). When asked about a shutdown, the gazillionaire said, 'That might not be a bad thing', as he fights for 'less regulations'. Not for him! But for the millions of little people, and the shock it would send through world markets, with all the interruption of basic services, it WOULD be a bad thing, so his Freedon(from sanity) Caucus could throw their tantrum like a 5 year old who can't get his way.
Just another example of the 1% who control the Pub party, at the expense of 'everyone else'.
