Their donations pale in comparison to those who donate to Democrats and Leftist organizations and causes. I saw a chart recently, and the Koch's were down at the bottom of the chart.
.
I think I saw the same chart---Kochs were behind several Liberal entities in political donations such as Unions.
The Koch Brothers favor a time closer to Slavery than modern times. They represent the interests of the most ignorant, bigoted, and racist people in our country. This is why they are hated by the most enlightened people in this country...and the world.

They must pay slave wages then.
Actually, no Koch industries pays right about the industry average for most of their careers. Considering most of their employees live in states with lower COL, they're getting paid pretty fairly. And they employ about 50,000 American citizens with good-paying jobs.
They're hated because Liberals happily eat up any propaganda about the Koch brothers, while discarding anything that might contradict their opinions. Like I've mentioned before, David is pro-gay marriage, pro-pot legalization and anti-war. They've donated about a billion dollars to various charities like museums and hospitals. And they're still some mythical right-wing boogiemen.
Meanwhile, any criticism of Soros is off the table. A man worth $25 billion, largely from manipulating world currencies (including singlehandedly crashing individual economies), is off-limits because he funds progressive causes and think-tanks. It seems the only people he employs are those whose whole job is to comb through Fox News transcripts looking for "gotchas" to post on Think Progress.

Hey Lexus, how does it feel to have someone completely destroy your entire joke of a political party in one simple post?
I was watching NOVA on PBS last night. It detailed how Global Warming is negatively affecting the oceans and sea life.
Sponsored by David Koch.
Was that bad? Should he have not paid for such a program?
Yeah, he also sponsored the Smithsonian exhibit and PBS special on evolution.
I seem to recall one of the other Koch's is a huge supporter of the NY arts scene, gay causes, the ballet etc. and in general I believe the Kochs are gay marriage supporters.
"American Bridge 21st Century is a progressive research and communications organization committed to holding Republicans accountable for their words and actions and helping you ascertain when Republican candidates are pretending to be something they’re not."
Clearly an unbiased source you got there.
Yeah....and you know that 3,000 is the biggest number they could inflate using whatever means necessary.
meanwhile, GE has outsourced tens of thousands of jobs overseas and their CEO is the head of Obama's jobs council.
Yes, some people really are that blindly partisan that they'll cuddle a cobra while screaming about a mouse....if they are told to.

Yes, yes, we all know your opinions on gays and why that makes you hate the Koch's support for them.
I think the principle of this comparison is insightful, but maybe that is just me. And I am okay with that. Thinking objectively is not in everyone's deck of cards apparently.
In what way is the comparison "insightful?"
