    What does Greta, Rand Paul, Palin etc etc etc etc have to do with the topic? The topic is one mans words about one mans words.. Anything else is a deflection. Strange if you go through this thread you and Gorn are baiting and deflecting the hell out of it hell Gorn is deflecting his OWN thread.

    Damn funny.

    Greta Van Susteren is also a BFF of Sarah Palin's. The two women are "besties": http://www.politico.com/story/2013/...rah-palin-will-drive-critics-crazy-92752.html

    I will now watch as your liberal head explodes as it tries to process the irony of your own argument. Objectionable photo,,flounder

    I disagree sort of... The folks who agree with Bundy don't want to admit he started this by making terroristic threats. BLM had no choice to show up with some force. Then when the crazy militia folks showed up it for even more tense.

    So is this thread about Ted Cruz now? Can you make up your mind Gorn? You do know how to form a thread in current events and the rules involved right?

    If you don't want to discuss the topic, stay out of the thread

    Read your other thread that you started (as I correctly predicted that you would) and my comment over there. You are failing left and right on yet another day, which is another easy prediction to make of you. :mrgreen:

    Perhaps you could post these threats. If Bundy did make these threats it would certainly lend more credence to Glen Beck's charge that Bundy is unhinged. Not sure how what you've stated would be contrary to my post.

    My point was people supporting Bundy agree he broke the law. They just think the reaction from BLM was too much, all the whole forgetting Bundy was calling for a "range war" over his cattle. BLM really had no choice to show up in a matter that they did.

    It's an Update, RP.....I could have titled it "Rightwing & Republicans Begin To Distance Themselves From Bundy"


    http://www.thewire.com/politics/2014...racist/361154/

    :)

    - - - Updated - - -

    That you would support Bundy...took no clairvoyance, paco. I know your work.
    :)

    BTW, if you lost Cruz....it's POSSIBLE Palin may turn on Cliven too. Jus' saying. :)

    I wouldn't be surprised to the idea that the folks calling the shots on this knew that this kind footage of was just a matter of time and would sink Bundy. BLM just had to sit back and wait. Now that Fox folks are distancing themselves the guy is going to look even more like a loony tune.

    so you believe The second amendment Applies to all citizens Accept the government employees

    If you Work for the government you do not have the right to bear arms

    Even when you will confront people bearing arms

    Are you sure you do not want government agents to bear arms
    do not take this as a personal attack But only a Attempt to Point out to you That your Statement maybe A little far out

    How would you like to have a confrontation with a lawbreaker That is backed up By a group of armed men And you prevented from carrying any weapons
    Or dogs for psychological Reasons

    Please respond to me

    I do not know much about Beck

    But I think he appears to be one of the few Right wingers That does not turn a blind eye To what is right and what is wrong

    Unfortunate for this country many people In the media Will pick a person and support them whether they are right or wrong

    And Beck seems to be trying to tell his supporters to be above that And stand for right And against A racist law breaker

    Yes, with the exception of a couple anarchists. And most are not actually supporting Bundy at all, but disagreeing with how the government is handling the situation. I personally feel the feds owning 85% of Nevada is excessive.


    Well the video I saw I'm not sure what the feds goal was. They showed up, used dogs and tazers to push the people back and then took off. It didn't look like they accomplished anything

    Since Bundy refuses to pay the grazing fees and his number of cattle excedes the pre-determined number then the feds have every right to remove cattle from the property. And to accomplish this they should certainly be prepared to defend themselves. Bundy's comments reinforce the feds need for significant protection although I don't know if this requires them to directly confront the Bundy cult that currently is on the premises.

    Perhaps you don't listen to enough right-wingers as most won't turn a blind eye to what they believe is wrong. For example during GWB's tenure conservatives shredded Harriet Mier's appointment to the Supreme Court because she lacked the legal credentials for the position. On the left there are a few who will call Obama to task when he violates their principles, but their numbers seem much more sparse.

    Is Bundy a racist asshat?

    Maybe, Probably, Yes.....

    What does that have do to with the Federal Government:

    Showing up with guns to collect a fine for grazing cattle?
    Spending $6-7 Million to collect a $200,000 fine?
    Having guys with guns, attack dogs, etc.... at the BLM?
    Having the head Democrat of the state call those that support stopping government authoritarianism "terrorists"?
    Owning over 84% of Nevada?
    Killing many of Bundy's herd?


    RACE CARD!!!!!

    Liberals you are so predictable... so you don't want to talk about the goverment's authoritarianism any more? Is the Fascism exposed that you support a little to obvious?

    RACE CARD!!!!

    You leftists are exposed... so keep throwing that dirt in the air. I wonder who dug this little racist crap up anyways? Was it the left wing media or the government?

    You Bundyites just lost Hannity......game over.


    Dylan Scott – April 24, 2014, 3:29 PM EDT



    Conservative media titan Sean Hannity, formerly one of Nevada rancher Clive Bundy's strongest advocates, expressed his vehement disgust Thursday with the latter's remarks on slavery



    Bundy's comments "are beyond repugnant to me. They are beyond despicable to me. They are beyond ignorant to me," Hannity said during his radio show.

    Good for Sean. Of course I am not seeing any quotes of Sean changing his positions in any way on this issue, so I'm not sure how you can claim they lost him.

    I have never supported Bundy, Gorn. My first opinion of Bundy still holds true today, that he should have simply paid the damned grazing fees and pleaded his case in court like any other sane American would do. However, the BLM armed forces handled this situation equally as idiotic, if not moreso, because now most of the country is pissed off at yet another fine example of government overreach.

    Bundy's racial remarks have absolutely no bearing on the fact that the U.S. government screwed this pooch's brains out.

    Maybe are right
    The few times I have listened It appeared to me every Right wing commentator Was biased And sometimes outright untruthful
    And seemed not to care About what Was right or wrong But only a A bout Whether the person in question was a conservative or not
    And the current bundy confrontation goes to prove this fact

    Bundy being a racist piece of trash or not has little to do with the Fascism our Federal Government is illustrating.

    Exposing Bundy as a racist is just another leftist tactic to confuse the real issue.

    The Federal Government's control over 84% of the land is wrong. Showing up with guns with guns and attack dogs to enforce a fine for grazing is wrong. Killing the man's herd is wrong. Calling people that stand against Fascim "terrorists" is wrong.

    Bundy being a racist has nothing to do with the Government being wrong.

    I'm not sure how well the Bundy case proves your point as I haven't seen any dishonesty pointed out and it appears there is a pretty loud and unanimous voice from conservative commentators condemning the racial comments from the unhinged Bundy.

    They will all have their bias, just as you have your bias. Michael Savage is not a program I care to listen to, but he is down-right vicious towards any politician he disagrees with, and it seems it is GOPs as often as it is Dems that he is hurling his venom towards. Michael Medvid, whom I enjoy, comes across as very honest and respectful and does a good job of supporting any position he takes with corresponding data. I have not herd either mention this issue however.

    The case went to court And Bundy lost He also lost Two appeals

    \And I ask you would you like to confront a man that bused in armed men That are considered by many as radical
    Without being Armed
    or are you one of the people that believe that if you work for the government you have no second amendment rights

    How lies And about the senate majority leader
    In spite of the fact That this started over 20 years ago When bundy stopped Paying rent
    The case went to court and Bundy has dragged Things out With Appeals
    And now the government is only trying to settle the matter
    And it appears That only because we have a democrat administration That they would support someone
    Even though he had his day in court and lost
    this is not about how much land the government owns Or
    Whether or not government agent should carry guns
    By most right wingers interject These things

    The fact is a wealthy rancher thinks he's above the law And right wing commentators support him
