The Real Culprits Are The Kochs Et Al Who Are Coordinating A Coup To Take Over US

[TheMastersNemesis]

The GOP is just a front for conspirators who plan to take over the government for their own means. It there is treason it is the Koch's and their billionaire club who are really behind this mayhem.

1. And then what do they do with it? Does it have to be some...

Hollywood conspiracy or maybe it's just the way some billionaires with unlimited resources operate in their own interst.

(Did George Soros want to take over governments to install socialist paradises?)

Why Obama and the Democrats Shouldn't Negotiate With Extortionists

Moreover, we don't repeal laws in this country by holding hostage the entire government of the United States.

The bullies are a faction inside the Republican Party -- extremists who are threatening more reasonable Republicans with primary challenges if they don't go along.

And where are the Tea Party extremists getting their dough? From even bigger bullies -- a handful of hugely wealthy Americans who are sinking hundreds of millions of dollars into this extortion racket.

They include David and Charles Koch (and their front group, "Americans for Prosperity'); Peter Thiel, leverage-buyout specialist John Childs, investor Howie Rich, Stephen Jackson of the Stevens Group, and executives of JPMorgan and Goldman Sachs, (all behind the "Club for Growth&quot ; and Crow Holdings' Harlan Crow, shipping magnate Richard Uihlein, and investment banker Foster Friess; executives of MetLife and Philip Morris, and foundations controlled by the Scaife family (all bankrolling "FreedomWorks.&quot

Their game plan is to not just to take over the Republican Party. It's to take over America. The showdown over the budget and the debt ceiling is a prelude to 2016, when they plan to run Texas Senator Ted Cruz for President. (Cruz, if you haven't noticed, is busily establishing his creds as the biggest flamer in Washington -- orchestrating not only the current extortion but also the purge of reasonable Republicans from the GOP.) Obama and the Democrats must not give in. They shouldn't even negotiate with extortionists. As I learned the hard way, giving in to bullies just encourages them to escalate their demands. The president gave in at the end of 2011 when Republican bullies threatened to go over the fiscal cliff and take the rest of the nation with them. At that time they demanded spending cuts. Now they want to repeal a law they detest. If we give in again, what's next? A coup d'etat?

As they say: Follow the money ...

6. Rich did not get rich by playing nicely

They did not get rich by setting limits on what they can hoard. No, they go for every bit they can steal. What's left to steal but the biggest org on the planet?

They are not stupid. They see the increasing world population and that population could very well set limits on their hoarding, so they figure they need the US government to do their stealing for them. Just like former president Bush set out to do, and did. Obama is not playing along. Hence he has become their enemy.

7. They and their puppets belong in prison for sedition.

They need all of their assets seized as well.

[Tumbulu]

8. I agree

Sedition is what it is.

I am against capital punishment, but firing squads come to mind.......

9. It's that serious, folks.

These people will NOT stop until they overthrow the country.

The question is whether Obama will appease them, which is his natural tendency.

10. Kochs, John Birchers, Dominionists. They are all one and the same.

They won't stop until they get their "Christian nation".

Push has come to shove.

11. Agreed: as I said in another post, it's obvious that the GOP...

...has no common sense when confronted with dollars and cents. It's never been more obvious than it is now.
Go away and die now, GOP.

12. I Believe They Know Because They Are Obsessed With Total Power.

What they are doing is deliberate and the believe their cause to the core.
