Republican Prostitutes Bending Over (Again!) for Oil/Mining Interests

GOP Kochsuckers (pardon the redundancy) are determined to steal America's public lands and turn them over to private/corporate owners for mining/fracking/cattle grazing — pretty much any purpose other than wilderness or recreation for the unwashed masses.   Hopefully Obama will veto any bill that has one of these sleazy amendments attached.

On the bright side:  There's a small but growing trend where people are leasing these public lands  — allegedly for drilling, fracking, etc.  — and then NOT doing any mining, fracking or any type of resource extraction.  If Abbie Hoffman were still here, he might call it “Steal These Drilling Permits.”

Koch Brothers are With the Terrorists!

Koch Industries has been selling huge shipments of petrochemicals to America’s number one enemy — this year’s Hitler — Iran.

Calling all flagwaving, yellow-ribbon-decal-displaying flag-lapel-pin-wearing Patriots:  what’ve you got to say about this?  The Koch Brothers — the creators, masterminds and remote controllers of the “tea party” — have been aiding and abetting the enemy.

Koch Industries has made “improper payments” (i.e. bribes)  to win contracts in foreign countries, including Iran.  Their deal with Iran is in violation of U.S. law.  They’ve been making these bribes since 2002 in countries all over Africa, Asia and the Middle East.

Koch Industries products have enabled Iran to build the world’s largest methanol plant.  Again, that country is IRAN.  When we invade Iran, the blood of American soldiers will be on the hands of the Koch Brothers.

Prosecute those Kochsuckers.

More Dirty Tricks from the Koch Brothers

Wisconsin’s Kochsuckers are at it again. It’s not enough to disenfranchise voters with a Voter ID law and then close a bunch of DMV offices — in Democratic districts of course — where newly disenfranchised voters might have been able to get the photo ID they need in order to vote.

Just to play it safe, Americans For Prosperity Wisconsin is trying to trick Democratic absentee voters into voting AFTER the August 9th recall election. They’ve sent out absentee ballots to heavily Democratic districts, with written instructions to return the ballot “before August 11th.”

The recall election, again, will be on Tuesday, August ninth — NOT the eleventh.

Every time you think the Kochsuckers couldn’t possibly stoop any lower, they do.

More Republican Dirty Tricks in Wisconsin

What else is new? Every time you think Scott Walker and his fellow Koch Whores couldn’t possibly stoop any lower, they do. Wisconsin Republicans — hereafter referred to as the Wisconsin branch office of Koch Industries — have come up with a scheme to sabotage the upcoming recall election against six Republican state senators.

The recall election is tentatively scheduled for July 12th. Each of the six Republicans subject to a recall are facing one Democratic candidate. Here’s where the sleaze begins. Republicans are planning to prop up a few fake “Democrats” to run in primary races against the Democratic candidates who are already running. If the Republicans are able to pull this off, the primaries will be held on July 12th, thereby postponing the recall election and giving the six embattled Republicans more time to campaign for their positions.

One state GOP leader wrote in a letter to his fellow sleazewipes::

“We need to make sure Democrat challengers face primaries to allow our Republicans time to mount a campaign.”

At least one of the phony “Democrats,” Rol Church, has long been known for taking conservative positions and contributing to conservative causes. Two local Republican leaders bragged in a letter about his fake campaign:

“We can't stress enough how important it is to have Rol on the ballot to combat the shady maneuvers of Madison liberals and their out-of-state allies.”

This is just one more reason — not that we needed yet another one — for Wisconsin residents to vote those Kochsuckers out of office.
