Greg Abbott: Play Toy of the Koch Brothers
I gotta talk to y’all about Greg Abbott, the Texas Attorney General who is running for Governor. I don’t like him and always will.
You know that part of the brain that tells you “I probably shouldn’t say one thing and then do another”? He doesn’t have that.
So, it comes as no surprise that he’s the play toy of the Koch brothers.
Greg and Friend
When Greg Abbott needed a little help flying around as his campaign for Texas governor gets underway, who did he call? The Koch brothers. Abbott’s latest campaign report shows that Koch Industries in Washington provided Abbott with the use of an airplane for $7,500 worth of travel. The report doesn’t offer details. And Abbott’s campaign did not return a call seeking clarification. But one thing’s clear: the Texas Republican attorney general is a favorite of the billionaire Koch brothers, who are big opponents of Obamacare and efforts to curb air and water pollution.
In actuality Greg Abbott isn’t against Obamacare and rampant life-threatening pollution. He just wants a free ride on an airplane. And to make his Overlords happy.
Don’t like him. Always will.
The Koch Brothers Have a Plan. I’m not sure what we should do about it but I’m open to any ideas you have. Support non-Koch brothers’ supported candidates. Don’t buy Georgia Pacific products. Not that the Kochs would notice. Make noise. See what dirty is going on anywhere and link it to Koch brothers in a search. There’s a list somewhere of all the groups that work like the Koch brothers. It’s kind of like hey, we got everyone aware of ALEC but now there’s ten more groups like it. Also, if you’re doing renovations, please use Hardie board. It’s not from Koch Industries and it actually is water resistant.
1Koch brothers have a LOT of play toys. Sooner or later they will quit taking care of them like all spoiled rich boys do.
2JJ, you are so totally astute! There are those of us who were born with an automatic “NO” button in our psyches. Its kept a great many of us out of trouble over a lifetime. Those brothers you mentioned are greatly disliked in my territory to the point where an extra letter is added to the pronuciation of their name. Its an “R” and you are free to guess where it goes!
3Ms JJ,unless I missed something,shouldn’t you say you don’t like Abbott and never will? Biologists working with cockroaches discovered that the right leaning ones had extra chromosomes,three extra to be exact and named them W,T and F. It appears that these extra chromosomes are also found in right leaning vertebrates that use bi-pedal motion and say no at every opportunity. There’s a Nobel in some biologist’s future for sure.
4Extra chromosomes! What a great excuse for someone having to haul around a bratty kid. “You’ll have to excuse him; he has extra chromosomes.”
5The Kochs will accept nothing but complete world domination. the Scary part is that they actually thing A-butt can actually help them with that.
6And although it’s a small point, but perhaps a legal one, on a private Jet, you’ve burned about $7500. just getting to the runway…. Just sayin..
Thank you Litlhorn for your observation.
