Charles Koch says he regrets fueling partisanship: 'Boy, did we screw up!'

In a new Wall Street Journal article, the billionaire Charles Koch expressed regret about fostering partisanship.

He told The Journal that his new mission is to work across party lines on issues he sees as key, citing the economy, criminal justice, and immigration as examples.

The Journal reported that in a new book, Koch wrote: "Boy, did we screw up! What a mess!"

Koch and his brother David, who died last year, helped fund the rise of the tea party, which pushed the Republican Party significantly to the right over the past decade

~More, if you can stomach the bullshit....

****

With his billions, Koch sits safely & far from the ravages we all maneuver thru every dam day of our lives.

And hands it all off , ONCE AGAIN, to the Democratic Party to fuking fix.

you won't fool him/her this late in the game. Are you getting closer to meeting him/her in person?

And, just like your other 'screw-ups', you think you won't be held accountable for it. However, I would offer a word to the wise (not that you qualify for that title either): Karma is a bitch!
