Are the misguided folks who willingly spread lies promulgated by well-funded PACs like "Citizens United" or "American Crossroads" even aware of the reasons why so much big money is being spent this year to defeat President Obama and progressive agendas?

Much has been said in the media lately about the proposed "plan" funded by Chicago Cubs owner Thomas Ricketts to use the hackneyed Jeremiah Wright business against President Obama ... What about the others - i.e. Charles & David Koch, Frank VanderSloot, Bob Perry, John Paulsen, Sheldon Adelson - who have launde er siphoned millions into efforts across the nation to destroy public-education, privatize the USPS, decimate organized labor, and repeal ALL oversight over corporate greed, rampant polluters, and Wall Street malfeasance? What is their ultimate goal? Why are they able to enlist naive or misinformed citizens to, in essence, work against their own best interests to further an agenda for the super rich, fueled by the twin-engines of fear and fabrication?
