Bernie Sanders says Mangu-Ward is a Koch dupe.
Such a shit he is.

  Citation please...Not that I don't believe you, but I am the resident sado-masochist who likes reading torturous lefty rants about people who received Koch donations.

    By the way, if you ever feel constipated, Bernie Sander's rant against Milton Friedman acts as a laxative.

      It may also cause numbness and nausea. Do not operate heavy machinery after taking Bernie's Rantsitol.

    Now I'm reminded it was Veronique De Rugy he was on about. Sorry. He still hates Reason though.

Is there a default expression for people who whip out the Koch ... i mean... use the Koch thing to... jesus I am so juvenile....Who do the guilt-by-Koch-association thing?

Koch-blocker?
Koch-tease?
Koch-envy?

I can't actually watch these 'blogging heads' things... it causes a headache. I can't look at anyone wearing a headset without thinking they're a total douchebag. Its me, I know... It just triggers a default reaction...

  Remember, people come to liberalism through education and rational debate.
  
  People come to libertarianism/conservatism through being paid a lot of fucking cash by Koch Industries.

  Even when it's two hot, intelligent women?
  1. GILMORE 14 years ago
    
    pointing out that intelligent women are also attractive is sexist.
    
    at least on the first date.

        ....
        
        that made less sense than Hercule Tri-blah blah blah.

  Koch-blocker seems reasonable enough. But would you refer to someone who associates with Koch to be a chip off the ol' Koch or a Koch of the walk? If they got into a fight, would they stop when one of them gets knocked Koch-eyed?

Koch Industries unleashes Katherine Mangu-Ward on the horny Hit & Run commentariat.

Nice nightgown, Erica. I guess you take that whole "Pajamas" media thing pretty seriously.

Do any of you actually watch these cam-chats?

      I should have written "cam-shots."
      1. Platypus 14 years ago
        
        that would have been lulzy.

        That video-still probably got one or two from the faithful.
