"The animated ad shows North Carolina Republican candidate for the Senate, Thom Tillis, performing for the Kochs, taking money from education and seniors and making it “magically” appear in his patrons’ pockets. State house speaker Tillis is in a tight race against Democratic senator Kate Hagan; whoever wins may determine which party controls the Senate."

2. This is fun

Of course, they're gonna need a LOT larger stage for a production that features ALL the Koch Theater players!

3. American Bridge 21st Century Super PAC.....I hate all these ads, they are the excreta of Citizens

United.

"Created by American Bridge, a liberal Super PAC founded by Media Matters' David Brock, the Tillis spot is just the first in a digital-only "Kochville" series that will go after extreme GOP candidates supported by Koch money. And the number of ads that money can buy is mind-boggling. According to the Center for Public Integrity, "The secretive political network of conservative billionaires Charles and David Koch has aired more than 43,900 television ads this election cycle." The brothers' Americans for Prosperity is expected to spend more than $125 million alone. While American Bridge is supported in part by billionaire hedge fund manager George Soros, its ad budget doesn't even come close to that of the oil barons."

Having said that, if America can ally with Syria against ISIS...I can live with it for a while.
