If Establishment Democrats can say they are liberal, the Koch Brothers can say they are liberal

Because establishment Democrats seem to show that you only need to be liberal / progressive on social issues to be able to claim to be a liberal / progressive, and that's similar to the Koch Brothers:

“I’m basically a libertarian, and I’m a conservative on economic matters, and I’m a social liberal,” Koch said in a forthcoming interview with Barbara Walters that was previewed on “This Week” Sunday.

Of course the Kochs give a lot of money to socially conservative groups, of which the Koch Brothers have this answer:

But he conceded that views on abortion and marriage equality doesn’t actually dictate his political activism or choice of candidates. “What I want these candidates to do is to support a balanced budget,” he said. “I’m very worried that if the budget is not balanced that inflation could occur and the economy of our country could suffer terribly.”

But it seems that Hillary has shown that you can be pro-black even though you have contributed to their suffering, and you can be pro-hispanic while continuing imperialist policies in Latin America.

1. If the Sanders crowd can call themselves the base of the Democratic Party,

2. "Social progressive" + "fiscal conservative" equals "I'd like to help, but I won't."

Libertarians are conservatives who like to smoke pot.

3. Koch Bros funded the DLC, which was founded by the Clintons and Al From.

4. That's some pretty stupid logic.

Anything starting off with an assumption that stupid is never gonna be taken seriously.

But I think grasping at straws is all that some folks have left.
