In all fairness, the Koch brothers have given large amounts of money to the ACLU and to non-political charities.

I'm not too fond of their positions on environmental issues, their support for right wing Republican candidates, or their business practices, but not everything they do with their money is bad.

They are for Prop 23 so they or those that they support get my vote. we don't need people that will support legislation that will kill jobs. Brown wants to be the Green govonor. Great but green industry doesn't have the jobs that we the people of this state need.
