They have a LEAKED memo…
a memo outlining the details of the last Koch gathering held in June of this year. The memo, along with an attendee list of about 210 people, shows the titans of industry — from health insurance companies, oil executives, Wall Street investors, and real estate tycoons — working together with conservative journalists and Republican operatives to plan the 2010 election, as well as ongoing conservative efforts through 2012.
It names names and Glenn Beck is mentioned along with the Koch brothers and other “industry Titans.”
Koch Industries has dramatically boosted its own profits by using conservative front groups to manipulate public policy. The fusion between the “intellectual” conservative movement and big businesses opposed to regulations and accountability has a history in America dating back to the New Deal.
There’s a list. You should read it and force all your frothing at the mouth Tea Party friends and anti regulation Republican friends to read it.
