Pickens slams Koch brothers on gas bill: 'They don't answer to anybody'

When not helping his wife try to save wild horses, T. Boone Pickens is on the hill pushing for a bill to jump start natural usage in the trucking industry by providing federal tax breaks.

The Koch Brothers oppose the bill as "undue government meddling in the energy markets."

For that and since they aren't playing his political game Pickens finds the brothers "mysterious" and he's concerned "they don't have to answer to anybody."

Not answering to anybody - why that's down right Un-American. Opposing "government meddling" is apparently something Pickens doesn't understand either.

Pickens better stick to wild horses, all of which are owned by the government. And Congress has also outlawed any market for the critters. Sounds like a system he would be more comfortable in.
