The Closeted Koch Brothers The Koch ballet vs. the Koch AFP What kind of closet are the Koch Brothers in That the media thinks they ought to admit The extent of their ultra right wing financing? Don't recipients know they're a bottomless pit With more than enough to fund their own agenda? But the Kochs need the troops their donees provide. So why be so secretive? Why stay in the closet? From whom and from what are they trying to hide? Don't Tea Party activists know two billionaires Are providing the moolah so they can persist? Sure, shill for the brothers? Your bills will be paid for. Just treat each non-believer as a damn Bolshevist. Tea Parties are fine, but this isn't Britain. Even the Kochs like a good coffee klatch, And find immortality doesn't come cheap If you're from Kansas and starting from scratch. Koch profits from Brawny have secretly backed The Americans for Prosperity advocacy group While openly buying the naming rights to New York City Ballet's home. How low can they stoop? Why secretly fund libertarian chaos, Then turn around and finance the ballet? What will the Koch brothers legacy be? Liberal gifts or April Fool's Day?
