When the vast majority of funding comes from one source - and a source that has a vested interest in opposing certain legislation - it's not "grassroots" by any stretch.
"What is it you think you've got there, Ryan?" One of my favorite lines from Clear and Present Danger.
So they received money from Koch. So what? Now, can you extrapolate that into some kind of crime? Don't think so.
Oh, and the term 'grassroots'. Puh-leeze. Now you're just grasping at straws.:shk:

You are SOOOO funny!
So, they are talking about the turn of the 20th century right? Where Wilson and his type existed? You know, totalitarian communists.
The ignorant these days.

Hopefully, he'll make the mistake of visiting Arizona, where Sherrif Joe will ask him to show his birth certificate.

Uhh...OK How about you look it up yourself then?
Are you claiming it's untrue?
....
How many sources would you like?
You are capable of an internet search aren't you?
Or were you just hoping to squeeze your eyes shut, cover your ears and pretend that the "Americans For Prosperity" President wasn't scumbag who worked for Abramhoff and protected a child prostitution ring?
Just because he didn't serve time, doesn't mean he isn't a criminal.
He also worked with Abramhoff to lobby congress to continue to allow slave labor, rape and prostitution...all in the name of Jesus...Great group you are defending here.

You should be banned for twisting the facts like this. You sound like a Phelp's Churcher. Shame on you.
Well, he's right actually. I don't know who the "Americans for Progress "are. Never heard of them. I don't know who runs them.
As a Democrat, the minute I see the words, "Tea Party" I associate it with all sorts of negative examples and extremist politicians. I see that they're against national health care, which to me means that they would prefer to see my retired husband with his many medications pay more than his retirement pension in meds each month ... or just "suck it up and don't take them."
LOL
I know it sounds too twisted to be true, just reporting the facts though.

That still makes Obama a deceptive, lying jackass.

What good does it do to go off topic?
Obama has been the most divisive President in my memory which goes back to JFK. Never before have we seen a Presidents operatives cause as much division as we are seeing know. This is a repeat of the 1960's and that is not a good thing.
A Leader, a real Leader, brings people together for a common cause. People who can not do that are not leaders.
As an Independent I'm not locked into defending bad behavior due to Partisanship.

The GOP and its MSM shill network has been showering Obama with hatred since before he was even elected, and it's been relentless and even psychotic at times.

You mean like the hatred and crap that Bush got after the 2000 election? "He's not MY president!" "He STOLE the election!!"
You mean drivel like that?
