The "Baggers" are just the Koch brothers sock-puppets trying their own form of the "Shock Doctrine". The real hostage holders of the Republican Party (and the Democratic Party, to a lesser extent) are the hogs in a trough bankers, and industrialist. Goldwater would never have recognized this band of crooks as Republicans. Americans for Prosperity Begins $25 Million Anti-Obama Ad Campaign ORLANDO, Fla. -- Americans for Prosperity, the Tea Party organization backed by the Koch brothers, is set to begin a $25 million advertising assault aimed at President Obama, its largest effort to date. (cont.) ------ Donations to '12 Romney election campaign 1 Goldman Sachs $636,080 2 JPMorgan Chase & Co $502,874 3 Morgan Stanley $476,300 4 Bank of America $465,850 5 Credit Suisse Group $421,310 Remember these banks? ----- During the savings-and-loan scandal of the 1980s--a scandal whose dimensions, by today's standards, seem almost quaint--the banker Charles Keating was asked by a congressional committee whether the $1.5 million he had spread among a few key elected officials could actually buy influence. "I certainly hope so," he replied. The Supreme Court, in its recent Citizens United case, has enshrined the right of corporations to buy government, by removing limitations on campaign spending. The personal and the political are today in perfect alignment. Virtually all U.S. senators, and most of the representatives in the House, are members of the top 1 percent when they arrive, are kept in office by money from the top 1 percent, and know that if they serve the top 1 percent well they will be rewarded by the top 1 percent when they leave office. - JOSEPH E.
