The Koch Brothers Chose Michele Bachmann as 2012 GOP Puppet
Bachmann Koch Puppet
What is it about extremist Christian Dominionist Republicans that makes you think Koch whore?
Maybe Governor Walker. Maybe Tea Party “queen” Sarah Palin. Maybe the Koch brothers Bircher evolution into the modern day Tea Party. Whatever. You have your reasons.
Well, now you have one more.
Mother Jones tells us the Koch money is all over our New Lady of the Old Testament, Michele Bachmann:
(W)hen it comes to the 2012 presidential race, the Kochs have been more selective with their giving, with only one presidential candidate so far benefiting from their largesse: Rep. Michele Bachmann (R-Minn.).
In late May, KochPAC, as Koch Industries’ PAC is known, donated $10,000 in one day to Bachmann-linked committees—$5,000 to her 2012 congressional re-election committee and $5,000 to her political action committee, MICHELE PAC, according to the most recent records available. (That’s short for Many Individual Conservatives Helping Elect Leaders Everywhere PAC.) The two checks weren’t KochPAC’s first contributions to Bachmann. According to federal campaign records, the committee has given $25,000 to the Minnesota congresswoman since 2006, excluding the May donation.
So, do the Koch brothers have a puppet finder tool or do these folks find each other on the shallow end of the GOP’s talking points by accident? Maybe we need our own chant. When I say “Bircher”, you say “Bachmann”. Bircher, Bachmann. Bircher! Bachmann!
That does it for today’s Dominionist follow the money to the corporate puppet game. Check in tomorrow to see what other rights you might be losing in the name of Jesus’ new Biblical truth that only the rich go to heaven.

Not to be snarky…but that’s sort of not a very good picture of Michelle.
Eh?

LOL – that’s a photo before all of her cosmetic surgery, botox shots, laser and chemical skin resurfacing, and some lifts and tucks….heavens, none of these teapublicans could actually put their real face forward like Hillary did. Bristol has already started with the lifts and the tucks….nothing but fakes and frauds.

I have a feeling that these relatively small amounts given to MS. Batshit are only the tip of an iceberg. Perhaps someone can check it out and see how much she really has been given including any benefits she has gotten.

But then again this may be a redirection. The most holy Koch know if Sarah is running or not, you can be sure of that. The Koch know You know. Certainly people with the Koch money would recognize a hypnotized woman when they see one.

I would have to disagree. After watching and listening to Ms Palin for the last 3 years, it’s obvious that Sarah has some serious and profoundly disturbing mental conditions.
On top of which is her muddled thinking and utter ignorance as exposed in the many disastrous interviews, statements, and “blood libel” and “Paul Revere” moments.
Reading books by those who worked closely with her in Alaska, it’s plain to see that she’s viciously vindictive, obsessed with her public persona, and is painfully vapid.
She is also an extreme christian supremacist, who would seek to change laws to suit the old men that lead her in spiritual matters. Palin might just order an attack on Iran, because the Xtians believe it’s the “end times”, and decisions based on voices in her head are more important that facts and analysis
We don’t need either Bachmann or Palin having nuclear codes, a veto pen, or nominating people like Bork or Thomas to the Supreme court.

Koch(head) brothers are actually lining up Bachmann as the VP candidate. They are just working to pump up the image so it is a more effective support to their actual choice of presidential candidate.
The Koch(head) boys have become a bit toxic and any public association with them weakens a candidate’s image. So whilst they want to buy, control and pimp out political whores, the public knowledge tends to destroy their investment but as psychopaths they can never stop plotting and scheming to gain personal dominance over all other US citizens. They are the political party of ‘Libertine Exploiters’, that actual conservatives must now work o bring down.

The Koch brothers learned that it is easier to control total fanatical religious din-bats, than it is to control total egotistical people who are only out for themselves. Sarah Palin would never do. She has railed against Democrats, Republicans, Conservatives or anybody who crossed her just slightly. Sarah Palin wants to be admired and when she is not she gets very vicious. The Koch brothers cannot have that. bachman fits the bill.
It really would be interesting to see what would happen if Sarah, the queen with the tiara would enter the race.

I agree with you on the Koch brothers. I don’t believe they are religious, I don’t think “religion” has anything to do with their desires and manipulations.

I think the Kochs are very religous.They’re just trying to make as much money as they can in order to buy their way into heaven.If you watch Nova on PBS you’ll see David Kochs name featured very prominently in the opening and end credits as a corporate sponsor.Window dressing for the God Squad.

Ms. Bachmann is a much better puppet than Sarah Palin is. Sarah “goes rogue”. She doesn’t understand that you must toe the line. Michelle even sign that ridiculous “marriage statement” even though it will come back to bite her big time.

Himmler remarked that the task of a priest in occupied Poland was to “keep the Poles quiet, stupid, and dull-witted” (tr. William Shirer) and that is doubtless the function the Koch contingency has in mind for Bachmann. Other than that, perhaps she’s so glassy-eyed from too much Koch.

well anyway, it certainly helps unmask what the Koch’s are after.
