Stacy Summary: Will the Koch-bots make of Ron Paul’s message to them? The likes of Koch Industries, who organized and financed the Palin/Beck fronted rally, rely on the continued ignorance of the heavy carbon taxes on Americans to finance the increasingly expensive military adventures abroad to secure oil reserves for the likes of their company. So how do you think Koch’s front group will respond? And do you think the Koch Party will fight to remove these taxes on the rest of the population that does not support the corporate welfare scheme for Big Oil?

“As many frustrated Americans who have joined the Tea Party realize, we cannot stand against big government at home while supporting it abroad. We cannot talk about fiscal responsibility while spending trillions on occupying and bullying the rest of the world. We cannot talk about the budget deficit and spiraling domestic spending without looking at the costs of maintaining an American empire of more than 700 military bases in more than 120 foreign countries. We cannot pat ourselves on the back for cutting a few thousand dollars from a nature preserve or an inner-city swimming pool at home while turning a blind eye to a Pentagon budget that nearly equals those of the rest of the world combined.”
