    Koch's bribed Romney with a $100 million to pick Ryan for his VP

    GOP Consultant: Koch Brothers Bought Ryan’s Nomination With $100 Million Promise

    Veteran Republican political consultant, unrepentant dirty trickster, and recently reborn libertarian Roger Stone yesterday published a startling accusation against Paul Ryan and Mitt Romney on his personal website, The Stone Zone. According to Stone, the billionaire Koch brothers purchased the Republican vice presidential nomination for Ryan from Romney in late July by promising to fork over an additional $100 million toward “independent expenditure” campaigning for the GOP ticket.

    Any such transaction would represent a serious violation of federal election laws and perhaps other statutes, aside from the ethical and character implications for all concerned...."

    Apparently, the wealthy don't think our laws apply to them. Why isn't the DOJ and the IRS cracking down on these crooks?

    It works much better if you put the shiny side outward.
    The five great lies of the Left:
    We can be Godless and free. • “Social justice” through forced redistribution of wealth. • Silencing religious opinions counts as “diversity”. • Freedom without moral and personal responsibility. • Civilization can survive the intentional undermining of the family.

    Moot you are correct, this is not a conspiracy theory. The evidence of these massive amount's of campaign donation's from casino mogul sheldon adelson and the koch bros, are everywhere. They have corrupted our politician's and have wrecked havoc on our democratic process. Don't let anyone discourage you hun.

    God I love it. We now have another 'Harry Reid' named Roger Stone. The MSM should have a field day with this ... but, but, but WHERE ARE THE FACTS?.

    O well.

    Re: Koch's bribed Romney with a $100 million to pick Ryan for his VP

    I liked it better when the Republicans were the ones making the obnoxious accusations. At this rate, we'll have the democratic equivalent of Rush Limbaugh rise to popularity within the next few months.

    I somehow doubt that Romney did anything this foolish. Generally the best way to convince people that your not a money absorbing parasite is to NOT do the things that make you seem like a money absorbing parasite. If he was going to commit political self destruction, it'd probably be in the form of a spontaneous comment... not a contemplated long term pledge.

    For now, I'm calling BS.
