Billionaire Leftist Tom Steyer Buys Himself a Majority Leader

by Duane Lester



Isn't "billionaire leftist" an oxymoron?
It's ok, though.  It's not like he's a Koch brother or something:
Steyer recently donated $5 million to Senate Majority PAC, the pro-Democratic Super PAC run by former Reid aides, making him the single largest contributor to the group.
The transaction is related to Steyer’s broader effort to buy American democracy for $100 million and block construction of the wildly popular Keystone XL pipeline. In fact, news of Steyer’s donation comes just days after Senate Democrats helped kill a bipartisan energy efficiency bill after Republicans tried to require a vote on Keystone approval.
It also highlights the absurdity of Harry Reid’s senile jihad against the billionaire Koch brothers.
Did somebody say Koch brothers?
Money in politics is only bad if it goes to conservatives.
