The Kochs are scared, and they’ve bought the web domains to prove it Charles and David Koch, and their related businesses, have poured money into politicking across the country. In Wisconsin alone, they were Gov. Scott Walker’s largest out-of-state contributor, and they famously bought all kinds of advertisements and electioneering courtesy of their Tea Party group Americans for Prosperity. They aren’t done. The folks on the ground fighting back in Wisconsin now discovered another dimension to the Kochs’ dirty tactics. The brothers are buying up web domain names. The equivalent of facebook.com or google.com, the Kochs’ have bought: StopKoch.com StopKochIndustries.com AntiKoch.com That’s in addition to their KochFacts.com page, which they’ve used to attack us and journalists who have written about us and the Kochs’ laundry list of dirty deeds and self-serving ideology. KochFacts.com tried to distance itself from our latest video: That the brothers would go ahead and buy domain names like this is a sign of their nervousness. Why are they playing defense, and do they really think that buying three URLs is going to stop someone from setting up StopDavidKoch.com or StopKoch.net? This latest twist shouldn’t be too big of a surprise since the Kochs have demonstrated a willingness to do whatever it takes and consequences be damned approach to getting their way. Our latest investigative film rattled them to the core, so much so we had to cut a sequel and rebut their denials and retreats. Is this a case of over-reaction and over-reach, or do the Kochs really believe that buying three web domain names will quell the movement against their selfish influence in democracy and society?

I'm applying for Kochsucker.com
When the SHTF my prayer will go something like: "give us this day our daily fed" --
Should get you some big bucks.
Tom's right. You will clean up. There's a kochsucker born every minute.
It is a violation of Natural Law to use this document in a manner inconsistent with its labeling. Lots of pols and corporations buy up attack domain names as well as near-misspellings.
kochsucker.com is already owned, probably speculatively, by some guy in Minnesota. Maybe it will be a German porn site for nude photos of Paula Dean. (Koch is German for 'cook'.)
This Koch nonsense reminds me of the Clinton years, when they tried desperately to make Richard Mellon Scaife into a George Soros.
