We expect recent efforts to boycott products produced by companies owned or controlled by the Koch brothers, (Charles and David), (pronounced "coke"), to grow in 2011, and will eventually include an effort to have pension funds drop the company's bonds.

Their company, Georgia Pacific, has $10 billion in outstanding bonds.

The organizers of the boycott are suggesting people not purchase things that their company produces, including: Brawny Towels, Dixie Cup Products, Angel Soft Toilet Paper, Mardi Gras Napkins, Quilted Northern Toilet Paper; and Stainmaster Carpets.

The media are in fact the biggest problem to this movement, something I have been at pains to point out on youtube. They are either ignoring this as best they can or they are being really offensive and malicious against supporters. My thoughts are that you should not just aim for one but start finding out who is playing ball in terms of advertising with all the mainstream media.

A good idea indeed this.

Also, is it surprising how he got elected? He's not a particularly bright or enlightened person. He's not a particularly honest person. He's not even good looking. How did he get elected?

He has a media juggernaut and $18 billion. That's how he got elected.
