David Koch runs away from ABC news...

[Archae]

He's scared shitless.

ABC News caught David Koch leaving his Park Avenue apartment this week, but the tea party billionaire quickly fled to his car, avoiding questions about a scandal involving his company's trade with Iran.

A recent report in Bloomberg Markets magazine revealed that Koch Industries had been caught paying bribes to win contracts, engaging in possibly-illegal trade with Iran, price fixing, and ignoring environmental regulations.

The magazine also uncovered a Koch Industries document admitting that they had violated federal law.

6. Warren Buffett has nothing to hide. He readily gives interviews.

So what are you hiding, Mr. Koch?

[UTUSN]

7. K&R #21, uh, could we kick it UP a bit more, eh?!1 n/t

[sarcasmo]

8. Violated federal law has my attention, put this fucker in jail.

[tex-wyo-dem]

9. hmmm...so the Koch Bros trade with a sworn enemy of the USA...

Violating Federal law, yet they walk free without a look from the law, yet if I we're caught with some pot in my car, I would probably spend months or years in prison?

I get it...makes perfect sence.

:sarcasm:

[Enthusiast]

26. Just like the Reagan Administration.

There is a pattern here.

[MedicalAdmin]

29. It was ever thus.

FDR let Prescott Bush and his pals walk when they caught running oil to the Nazi's AFTER they tried to over throw him a few years earlier and were stopped by General Smedley.

And the children of those same asshats (yes - the Kochs ancestry was involved in the same things) are still doing the same things. They need to stopped, jailed, and stripped of every asset that can ever be found among them or any relative. It's the only way. Either that or ....

[calimary]

40. Doing business with Iran, and further pushing it using bribery? Isn't that "Paaaaaalling Around

with TERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRists?"

:headbang:

And yeah, the "violating Federal law" part interests me, too. And they admitted it? In writing??????????

[TheEuclideanOne]

53. A sworn enemy of the state?

Do you mean the teabaggers?

[Fuzz]

17. K&R Flush them out...

[mother earth]

18. Run coward, run! Whatcha gonna do when they come for you?

[CanonRay]

19. Why is he running? Nothing is going to happen to him

and he knows it. Not with Eric (Mr. Corporation) Holder at the helm of the DOJ. Koch could open up on Times Square with an AK-47 and he MIGHT get a fine.

[BumRushDaShow]

22. Prosecution doesn't have to happen right away

The puppets he and his brother control have been so brainwashed to abhor terra terra terra and push to bomb bomb bomb... bombbomb Iran, that any word of dealings with this axis of evil entity will be enough to cause the zombies to scamper away... Just like they are beginning to do with Murdoch and faux snooze.

[CanonRay]

28. I have zero faith in our "justice" system anymore.

The DOJ was better under John Mitchell, for pity's sake.

[cui bono]

32. Whatever happened with the Murdoch situation?

Gotta look into that....

Something might actually happen there since he has problems in the UK. On our soil anything goes if you are rich and influential.

20. The kochroaches have no scruples and never had

They ripped off a bunch of Osage Indians here in Oklahoma years ago by under reporting the amount of oil they were buying from them. I don't remember what the outcome of the trial was but I do remember the kochroaches made off with a shitpot full of ill gotten money from the Indians. I'm still pissed at them over that so you can imagine what I feel like towards them today after all this other shit, teabagger, Iran etc has come to light.

30. the US Petroleum Reserve...

<snip>
– Koch Industries won massive government contracts using their close relationship with the Bush administration. The Bush administration, in a deal even conservatives alleged was a quid pro quo because of Koch’s campaign donations, handed Koch Industries a lucrative contract to supply the nation’s Strategic Petroleum Reserve with 8 million barrels of crude oil. The SPR deal, done initially in 2002, was renewed in 2004 by Bush administration officials. During the occupation of Iraq, Koch won significant contracts to buy Iraqi crude oil.

So how much of the, "liquid", injected into the salt domes is actually sea water? The Koch brothers are famous skimmers. Just look around and you will find "reams" of documents concerning their endeavors.

<snip>
Charles Koch’s racket was very simple, explained William. With its extensive oil pipe network, Koch Industries' role as an oil middleman--it buys crude from someone’s well and sells it to a refinery--makes it easy to steal millions of dollars worth of oil by skimming just a little off the top of each transaction, or what they call “cheating measurements” in the oil trade.

21. this is just the tip of the iceburg! k&r

[Enthusiast]

27. It sure is.

Imagine the worst and multiply it many-fold.

[Kurovski]

23. I hope everyone follows him and his bro everywhere, always.

[IthinkThereforeIAM]

24. kick...

...eom.

[Enthusiast]

25. I can hardly imagine ABC news

asking David Koch any hard hitting inconvenient questions. But I would love to see it.

[Barack_America]

31. No worries. It's just a little "light treason".

Check the attic.

[KansDem]

38. Just like outing Valerie Plame

Giving aid and comfort to the enemy is, like, you know, an extension of the hospitality industry!

[Mosaic]

33. You know what he is a POS

A piece of shit coward. Jail him!!!!

[BREMPRO]

34. i'll be happy to decorate their jail cells for them! hope this has legs...n/t

36. There's a new Sheriff in Town Boys - Watch out Koch's their on your heels!

Now let's hope this Sheriff and his Deputy get on this quick!

[Dr Fate]

46. "Sheriff" Obama gave the Kochs all those massive tax cuts so that he could FOOL them.

They are playing right into his hands, and it won't be long b/f he is tearing them a new one.

He's gonna get Murdoch too.

[Dutchmaster]

37. .01% chance of being indicted, and if they are . . .

. . . they will join Kennyboy on heart attack island. This type of stuff is just adding fuel to the fire.

[CanonRay]

54. I think you need to add a few zeros in front of that 1

and you'll be a lot closer.

[mod mom]

39. OUT IN FRONT OF HIS PARK STREET APT IN NYC? protest this sorry ass!

He shouldn't be welcome in occupied NYC!

44. Obama and the DOJ are going to take those Kochs DOWN!!!!!!

Right after they win the war on pot- head cancer patients.

[Uncle Joe]

45. Kicked and recommended.

Thanks for the thread, Archae.

[PA Democrat]

47. Recommended. The Kochs are continuing a fine family tradition of

making money by dealing with the enemy. After all, Daddy Koch got rich building oil refineries for Stalin.

[Glimmer of Hope]

48. Time to lawyer up!

[SpiralHawk]

50. Typical Republicon Chickenhawk

Run run run, run away...(R).

55. So, Davey, how's that "keeping a low profile" stuff working out for you and Chuckie?

Never fear, boys, I've always got room in my refrigerator for you two to hide out.:evilgrin:
