? Don't you access the news???? I mean Rand Paul, Dean Heller and Reince Pribus who said, ""Bundy's comments are completely beyond the pale. Both highly offensive and 100% wrong on race." They are REPUBLICANS....
First yes, many Repubs are backing away from Bundy. I concede that. The word "unacceptable" is being used. To me that implies politically incorrect, not racist. Bundy made remarks about race. But he made no racist remarks.
LOL! Yup, you can't tell the difference.....typical.... ...when you're so entrenched it's hard to tell....
"In an email to Mediaite, Cruz's Press Secretary Catherine Frazier said of Bundy's remarks, "Those comments are completely unacceptable.” http://www.thewire.com/politics/2014...racist/361154/ I ask again, Mac.....How about Ted Cruz? - - - Updated - - - Yes, Mac.......Ted Cruz STILL LOVES Cliven. Just try to call his office and get him to admit it.
LOL, your post is an example of the worst of trolling. Race wasn't and issue until this popped up so for those obsessed with race it is now all about racism. Your post is just as bad as what Bundy said.
Trying to tie me to a position to make your point is stupid. Show where I said illegal immigration was ok by me, not only are you in error, but also taking the discussion off topic. But I see you have no leg to stand on, so you have to create a strawman to help your argument. No need to correct my analogy, it is right on par with your earlier idiotic post. You might want to stop digging at some point, before you can't climb out.
Ya, race is never an issue with conservatives, until it slips out. You seem to think that unless someone says the word (*)(*)(*)(*)(*)(*), then they can not possibly be racist towards blacks. If the mods had left my post intact, you would have had all the evidence you needed to see how wrong you are. What is funny is how Holder or Obama can say things, and all of a sudden the race card is thrown out.....
Let's compare Bundy and Reid?? Bundy thinks that the Black family has been trashed by the liberals who are holding them on their plantation of government dependence. Reid thinks that anyone who opposes BH Obama is a racist. When asked about the little girl who needed new lungs to live her lamented that some of the government employees in Nevada needed a raise. He has called the TEA Party people terrorists. He has called more than half of the American people stupid for not agreeing with his agenda to implement single payer health coverage. Reid thinks that his staff deserve better health coverage than Private Gorn is allowed to buy under obama-care. Bundy is an old nut but he hasn't been elected to the Senate. Reid should be held to a higher standard in that he is the leader of the Senate and the liberal horde. Bundy has every right to be a mean old fool but Read has a responsibility to all of the people of Nevada and to the Constitution. I don't know if Bundy was just wrong when he said that Black had a better family life than they have now or if he was just spewing hate like Harry Reid but Bundy will pay for his mistake but Reid will be rewarded by the liberal horde for his hatful rants.
Well that depends, what led to the aggravation that required BLM to respond in such a matter in the first place? Maybe 20 years of illegally grazing his cattle after they said he was no longer allowed to? After 20 years, do you think all of a sudden they just show up with no provocation with guns drawn? Especially with the pictures of ranchers with their guns drawn? This isn't the wild west anymore, and just because one doesn't like the federal government, it does not give them the right to act that way. Now I'm all for making a stand when injustice is done, but you have to at least be in the right.
A) The claim was that reports of snipers and SWAT tanks at the Bundy ranch were "right wing lies". They weren't. B) The BLM invasion force was there before the militia people showed up and, indeed, were the reason for those militia folks being there. C) "Vigilante assassins"? LOL. Don't you have to kill someone to be an assassin? Perhaps you are thinking of the BLM goons that just shot cattle (in violation of their court order) before they piled back into their clown cars and drove away disappointed. http://www.tpnn.com/2014/04/18/obama-blm-admits-killing-bundy-ranch-cattle/ 0 for three. Nice work.
I love it when conservatives try to justify the reasoning for racism. But, but but he's not elected...... Yea, but he has 99% of conservatives backing him because he is who he is.....
Um they are interested in the Constitutional issues -- issues that apparently so terrify and befuddle leftwingers that they have resorted to MAKING it become an issue about race. Usually leftwingers are not quite that transparent in these predictable politically-motivated propaganda ploys, but it looks like the Right was gaining so much traction that the Left just got desperate.
Show where in the constitution it states people can use land that isn't theirs and profit from it. That would help a lot for my farm, so I'll be waiting for that information.
Most normal people do NOT need those remarks explained to them...normal people KNOW racism when they see it...it was extremely racist
Really? That's what you got? I see a SWAT truck -- you know, the standard issue vehicle *with wheels* that SWAT teams carry their gear around in. No "tank". And in the other picture, I see three people looking at the protester -- two using binoculars, one using the scope on his rifle. If your claim is that anyone with a scoped rifle is a "sniper", then apparently every year millions of deer are killed by snipers. Heck, it means I'm a sniper, because I have a scoped .22. I don't see anyone acting like a "sniper" -- except for some of the militia members on Bundy's side.
I id not say that it does. This issue is not MY issue. I am commenting on this stuff because of its cultural and political aspects and not because I actually care one way or the other. But it is a constitutional issue of the rights of an individual versus the designs of government regardless of the Left's feelings on the matter and their mighty struggle to divert it into a racial issue is -- well -- an obvious political ploy. Personally I rather doubt that Bundy has much of a legal standing, but it's an issue for the courts and the Justice system and not for leftwing race-mongers who seem to have run out of any other way to shut it down.
Your obsession with race is noted. What is funny is that you are throwing out the race card, blanket labeling conservatives as racist and you are the one obsessed with race.
Then there is nothing Constitutional about it. He never had a legal standing, so it played right into the conservative play book in protecting one of their own.
Time and again you find that all "conservatives" have not defended Bundy who lost in court 2 times yet here you are again with blanket accusations. The issue is the heavy hand of the Federal government which has quite a few of the Western States working on legislation to make the land State land instead of Federal land much like what happened in the Eastern States in the past.
"Mass grave"? The BLM shot *two* cattle. Whether or not that was legal depends on the circumstances, which should be investigated. Bundy also claims a bunch more cattle died of dehydration. Not only do we have no evidence that that claim is true; cattle dying from dehydration while trespassing on government land is an unfortunate consequence of trespassing, and wouldn't have happened if Bundy had removed the cattle like the court ordered him to.
Once again you are not able to comprehend or are being intellectually dishonest. Conservatives get "blanketed" with accusations of racism for what they post here. I don't know anyone here personally, so I am basing my responses and accusations on what is written. Do you need some proof of the racism from conservatives here? Now, I fail to see any condemnation from conservatives here for those posts, not even a single "peep", unless you count "liking" a post as a kudos. So you want to give it another try to see if you can save face? Maybe you can show some examples of racism on the left here? We can then compare notes and finally put this to rest.
Well you know it would have been better if the gov't had sent that crew to the boarder where they are more needed. They could of done a better job for America at the boarder than on a true Americans property trying to collect a past due debt. Remember...the illegals steal more from us than he does.
