The Koch brothers, who have been using their Stalin derived fortunes* to back the teabaggers, have steadfastly denied any involvement in the movement.

Well, let’s role tape:

David Koch told New York Magazine earlier this year, “I’ve never been to a tea-party event. No one representing the tea party has ever even approached me.”

But the Guardian reports that footage has emerged showing David Koch at the podium during an AFP gala receiving direct and detailed reports from his astroturf AFP army on their efforts to organize tea parties around the nation.

It appears that, “Never been to a tea-party event,” means getting reports from the people you are bankrolling on stage in right wing speak.

*Really, patriarch Fred Koch made his fortune setting up refining for Josef Stalin.
