    These guys seem to be alright. Republicans with libertarian/liberal social philosophies, like supporting womens choice, same sex marriage and against liberal economic policies. Don't really see anything evil about them. Also seem to do pretty good on the philantrophy... not that philantrophy is a moral +1... They seem to have a very Milton Friedman economic approach to things which makes sense logically. The only thing they seem to do bad is give more money to republican causes. Which I don't care much for. Money in elections is never altruistic (altruism is a lie). But at least the philosophy is right and their goal is less government, which means less people to lobby too. And didn't obama raise more money than romney last election? So wouldn't that make the people who gave to him worse... except there is no 1 person to blame. Like that 1 death a tragedy, 1 million a statistic.

    If its a million people paying 1 billion dollars for free something taken from others through force VS a couple people paying a billion dollars to promote a smaller government where mob rule has trouble existing. I'd say the lesser evil is in the second one.

    • Please define "smaller government" what get axed, eliminated, and or reduced?organicgrid
    • did you even watch that?moldero
    • Skimmed it. a lot of logical fallacy style arguments. not worth watching all the way. you can tell its it sells to emotion not reason.deathboy
    • reason. and smaller government in healthcare, education, environmental. think how diesal viewed in the 80s set us back 15 years in clean diesal technologydeathboy
    • set us back compared to europe on clean diesal technology. cheaper fuel more power less pollution, or cleaner coal which is necessary if eletric cars work out..deathboy
    • coal which is a must if a electric car pans out... my bet is on fuel cell technology as teslas AC is to musks DCdeathboy
    • of course i wouldn't trust their motives for the greater good, theyre just less evil, than say sorosdeathboy
    • Smaller gov't is the biggest Republican lie there is. They only want less Federal Gov't, and more local gov't.CyBrainX
    • And Obama's contributions had a much lower avg. donation amount/more people contributing, rather than world-ending Koch style lobby millions.CyBrainX
    • This "smaller gov't" is such a farce! What a stupid platform. What's smaller? The only examples we have destroyed their economies.formed
