You know, the 25 million dollar donation announced Friday. What is the spin on this magnanimous gift from the ultra left? It's kind of been "crickets" in the MSM. Did read where one outraged lib was angry because it would "show them in a good light."

BTW- Michael Lomax, CEO of the UNCF, asserts he doesn't care about any outrage because.....the money.....all that money!

The outrage is probably missing because there is nothing to be outraged about

Don't expect the anti-American loonies to pipe in on this one.

the koch brothers give a shite ton of money to all sorts of stuff, from the arts to education funds, that have nothing to do with their politics.

harry reid's histrionics about them are pathetic. he is a pathological liar and a psychopath.

also, check this out: (political donation rankings--ActBlue no. 1; Koch no. 59)

i'm sure there is something to pick apart in it, but at the very least it militates against the radical left's over-stimulated fixation on the KBs.

They will probably say that money is not enough. He should build an ivy league school for only AA's, give them all good grades, etc

Good for them, but it doesn't change my overall stance on them.

Does anybody here really bitch that much about the Koch Brothers?

It seems like there are more threads about Harry Reid bitching about the Koch brothers than actual bitching about Koch brothers

Liberals don't like the Kochs because of the extraordinary amount of money they spend influencing our political process. That they also give money to good causes is irrelevant to that criticism.
