Nevada ranch standoff could leave dirt on Harry Reid’s reputation
Washington Times ^ | April 13, 2014 | Valerie Richardson

Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid said little as federal agents seized and then released cattle last week from the Bundy ranch, but there is little doubt that the highly charged episode was threatening to become a political headache for the Nevada Democrat.

The Bureau of Land Management is headed by former longtime Reid aide Neil Kornze, who was confirmed by the Senate as BLM director on Tuesday, just as federal authorities descended on the cattle ranch outside Mesquite, Nev.

Reid is a product of the Vegas mob.
A real sweetheart.

The picture was suppose to be dirty Harry and his cronies getting dirty only in jest. Of course, Nevada is of high and low corruption of all sorts, but, I'm not for that.. I want to see Harry Reid and his minions go down, replaced, gotten rid of period.

With God all things are possible!

How could new dirt be seen? Before dirt could be left on Reid’s reputation a clean spot would have to be found.

The republicans in congress fear Reid more than they fear the NSA.

BLM Head --inexperienced 35year old from Reid's office

from link...
Kornze, 35, worked as a senior policy adviser on land-use issues in Mr. Reid’s office from 2003 to 2011 before joining the BLM. He was confirmed by the Senate on a 71-28 vote after serving as the agency’s principal deputy director, even though Republicans had qualms about his lack of experience compared with past BLM directors.

During the confirmation hearing Dec. 17, Mr. Reid called his former aide “just perfect for the job,” even as Republicans noted that previous BLM directors Bob Abbey and Jim Caswell were career federal land managers each with more than 30 years’ experience

It’s not teflon, he is covered with dirt. The LSM and the Washington elites just choose to ignore it because a huge number of them have been rolling in the same mud as Reid.

Unless the MSM goes after Harry, few will ever know it.

““It was likely pressure from upstairs, rather than weapons from the field, that changed his mind on the matter,” the liberal group Americans Against the Tea Party said in an online post. “Fact is, Harry Reid probably didn’t want his name attached to the biggest civilian massacre in U.S. history right before election season.””

I think theses liberals may actually know something about harry Reid.

But this is a huge natural resource issue for Nevada who suffers 85% of their state under similar threat of abuses.

Most western states are in the same boat although nobody is as poorly off as Nevada. Nevada’s future hangs upon her leaders ability to reclaim sovereignty over her own lands & natural resources.

If Washington is going to start taxing and dictating to Nevada the utilization of her own natural resources Nevada’s economic future is rather Dim.

Nevada’s leaders must know that and it is imperative that they make uses of this opportunity to prod Obama into “leveling the playing field”.

This isn’t about a million lost federal tax dollars this is about hundreds of billions of dollars lost to Nevada and Nevadian because of the Federal hording of their God Given lands & natural resources.

Hmmm...appointment of a buddy to head of the BLM and within days his men are forcing the cattle of a rancher off the land that’s going to be used for a solar power project brokered by Reid’s son thats worth billions...

Nah, no coincidence at all....”

One does have to wonder if Reid is trying to cover up something, or if he just doesn’t want a massacre.

This weekend Putin shut down 'America Free Russia'.

This weekend the Obama administration BLM shut down the cell towers in the area of the Bundy Ranch.

What is the difference in the minds of these 2 men?
