Correct me if I'm wrong

but aren't the Koch brothers Jews? How is it that Republicans get all excited about Soros, but never a peep about the Koch brothers. Not that the Koch brothers should be demonized if they're Jewish. No one should be. It's wrong. But it just points out the complete hypocracy of the GOP. They whine about Soros buying elections, but they sure love Koch money coming into their coffers. They whine about Soros being a globalist, but aren't the Koch Bros also globalists?

3. Koch's ancestors were Episcopal and probably Dutch Reformed but not Jewish

They do not attend any religious services, haven't donated to any religious denominations.

They are members of the Mont Pelerin Society which supports "classical liberal philosophy" which champions free expression and free markets ala Milton Friedman.

4. vlyons, I recommend checking a person's biography on Wikipedia before making wild guesses about

whether they are Jewish or not. Just takes a minute. If you did you'd find that Charles Koch is of Dutch ancestry with an Episcopalean bishop among his ancestors.
