David Koch: ‘Hardcore socialist’ Obama is ‘scary to me’

Source: Raw Story
By Eric W. Dolan

Oil baron David Koch has made it clear he is no fan of President Barack Obama, but Wednesday night he provided a fresh reason for his anti-Obama views: the president is frightening.

Obama is "a hardcore socialist," Koch told the New York Magazine at a spring ball, "and he’s marvelous at pretending to be something other than that, but that is what I believe he truly is, a hardcore socialist. He’s scary to me."

Koch and his brother Charles are owners of the energy company Koch Industries. The brothers were principle financiers of Wisconsin's Republican Governor Scott Walker and the tea party movement. They are also supporters of free market groups like Americans for Prosperity, the Cato Institute, the Competitive Enterprise Institute, and the Reason Foundation.

and then he would have you hung for treason

Oh wait, yes I do. Gotta try and make 'socialist' synonymous with communist and scare the shit out of dumb-asses.

We need more Democratic Socialists in government

If idiots like David Koch are running things...that is scary to me - that a man supposedly can have all those resources and still be a stupid idiot. Pathetic.

and could never find the time to become well-educated. I love ignorant rich fools! They're so cute. Don't rub them the wrong way though.

absolutely tremble! eom

:toast:

"A hardcore socialist?" Shut the fuck up, Dave! Guess you weren't paying attention when Obama refused to end Bush's tax cuts on deadbeats like you! Tell me, Kochaine, how much in taxes do you pay?

To you and your ilk, anyone who isn't a fascist-corporatist or member of the plutocracy is a "hardcore socialist."

Asshole!!! You make me want to puke! :puke:

I hope Obama scares him and his brother to death*.

:eyes:













*Obviously, not literally.

:hi:

ASSHOLE!

Enjoy the conversations!

:hi:

What does that say about the country that overwhelmingly voted for a socialist in 08?

That ass will die a lonely death clutching his bank statement.

show such ignorance.

David Koch is being silly.

Koch has a very weak grasp on reality.

What's your point?

I refuse to drink his Kochaine Koolaid!

I'm just say'n.

?

And he has been actively spreading his fascism in this country.

without Blackwater/Xe around. I'll show him "scary". F$ckwad.

Go back to class and learn the meaning of "socialist."

:dunce:

Their platforms are nothing like Obama's. He doesn't even agree with single-payer health care..I don't see how he could be classified as a socialist.

Koch would make Rush blush.

I believe it had something to do with Stalin.

where he can learn to humbly garden for the collective.

As Marx said "If that is Marxism, I am not a Marxist."

Give me a hint - who was president?

Yeah, must not be doing all THAT bad under President Barack Sanders (pFFFFFFFFFT). Most socialists I know give the ridiculously wealthy anything their hearts desire. :eyes: :eyes: Stupid shits. I can't even believe that someone with this much money can be so goddamned DUMB.

Why don't you and your brother go find Scott Walker, and all the other GOP governors and go fuck yourselves?

You are responsible for the demise of this country. You want the working peons like me to make your salary even bigger. Not happening buddy!

:smoke:

I certainly hope he lays awake all night having nightmares of losing his entire financial
empire, and that he dreams that IRS agents are constantly looking in his windows. Be afraid, DAVID, be very afraid!

asshole. i doubt these rich pricks believe any of this socialist boogey man stuff they keep pushing. its so completely divorced from reality. they must think there followers and underlings will buy it. shows how much respect they have for them. ugh.
please go buy some other country's govt and turn it into your fascist corporate hell, mr koch.

:scared: shitless :hurts: of the black President :scared: :cry: booo hooo hooo. :cry: :nopity:

Who will pin down his definition of socialist.

...thinks Obama is a "hardcore socilaist".

An irrationally broad definition of what constitutes "socilaism" combined with the ability to pay a hellava lot of people to push that view is bad news by any scorecard.

living, and all quality-of-life factors for most people scares me, no, really pisses me off, and one day hopefully he and his ilk will have pissed off enough people to reach a critical-mass flash-point. :patriot:
