Pro-tip for Democrats: when Politico casually mocks your favorite rhetorical flourish, it’s pretty bad.
Responding to the [McCuthcheon v. FCC] decision, Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) invoked his favorite boogeymen: the Koch brothers.
“The Supreme Court today just accentuated what they did on Citizens United, which is a decision that is one of the worst decisions in the history of that court,” Reid said during a press conference on raising the minimum wage. “All it does is take away people’s rights because, as you know, the Koch brothers are trying to buy America.”
Bolding mine. It is a measure of just how surreal the whole situation is that most people still weren’t ready to immediately believe that Harry Reid would start babbling about the Koch brothers buying America*. If you are a Reid staffer, take my sincere advice: get your boss to his doctor for a check-up. Fast.

*Almost a shame that they won’t; God knows nobody in the Democratic party apparently knows how to do a budget properly.
Reid’s other cards are all over the limit, Koch Derangement Syndrome is about the only one he has left.

Meanwhile, the Koch Brothers aired this ad which completely stole Harry’s lunch.

No, countermand that. This is more entertaining.
However, in the interests of public safety, keep him away from heavy machinery, sharp objects and Assault-weapon-machinegun-firing-bullet-clip-magazine-very-scary thingies.
In other news, the EPA was conducting pollution experiments on people (apparently including children).

Hmm. When was Reid born?
