mnealtx 0 #63 August 9, 2011 QuoteIt's typical for established leaders to use their fundraising to help other members of their party in closer elections. This report doesn't detail the timeline during which this 80M was spent. I'm pretty sure that he can't use funds contributed against a Presidential campaign to help out his buds in Congress. Quotefunny how you didn't show the next two columns, which completely torpedo the lie you were telling: Debts $412,878 Cash on Hand $37,110,346 Doesn't torpedo it at all, just means he's spent money against the campaign before the reporting period started.Mike I love you, Shannon and Jim.

Quote David and Charles have funded conservative and libertarian policy and advocacy groups in the United States.[6] Since the 1980s the Koch foundations have given more than $100 million to such organizations, among these think tanks like the Heritage Foundation and the Cato Institute, as well as more recently Americans for Prosperity.[7] Americans for Prosperity and FreedomWorks are Koch-linked organizations that have been involved in the Tea Party movement.
