Republican superPACs Crossroads GPS and Restore Our Future expect to raise a total of $400 million by the time the election comes around in November. An additional $400 million has been pledged by billionaire brothers Charles and David Koch.

The pro-Obama superPAC Priorities USA, on the other hand, hopes to raise $100 million, according to Draper.

被 Koch 兄弟统治下的人生多么美好啊。

Obama这怎么办呢？目前的民调只领先一点点，还有4个月呢。

不管谁上台，反正都是被 billionares 统治的人生啦。

Maybe so. But who would you choose? Zuckerberg or Koch?

恶，这例子举的。不得不说被Zuckerberg统治未必是件很值得期待的事。

Zuckerberg 一个小屁孩懂个屁，他才不想统治全国人民呢。Koch 兄弟是来真的，而且已经来真的很久了。想象一下中国的目前的状态，然后把政治局常委里的人都去掉，只剩下一家人，这就是被 Koch 兄弟统治的状态了。Koch 兄弟是干什么的纽约客有详细的报道：

本来我巴不得美国赶快弄上个白人总统，过去几年白人从上到下寝食难安且激发了他们拼死战斗的心态。不过现在也晚了，这一套极右派基督教原旨主义政治经济媒体乃至法律机器已经修建了三四十年，日趋完整，把一个半黑人总统赶走只不过是其中很小的一部分，大选之后也不会就此停止运转，以后会一直运转下去一统天下千秋万代，GWB 的年代不仅很快会回来而会一直一直地进行下去。

The newsroom was targeting Koch brothers and Tea party in the past episode. First time I've seen Koch brothers been mentioned on TV...

我一个手贱去下了最近一集。

Sorry, still don't like it. I wonder when he will acknowledge the reality that American people do not want to watch this kind of news programs.

我觉得你们口味太刁了。夏天闹剧荒，我又对我原来看的都审美疲劳了。一个新剧这么高水准已经了不起了。
对了，你们知道吧？Anthony Bourdain 离开旅游台，带着producer秋天去CNN 了。做政治节目了。

Nit-picking --- For panick attacks I recommend propranolol instead of Xanax.

The only thing I like in the show is the love-hate relationship between Maggie and that grumpy ex-EP who is kind of cute --- Not the boring WASP-y nice guy brandishing his Iraq credentials around but the other one with dark curly hair.
