Cliven Bundy to Harry Reid: Why are you calling for a civil war?
The Examiner ^ | April 22, 2013 | Joe Newby

While appearing on Monday's edition of Fox News' "Hannity," Cliven Bundy, the Nevada rancher at the heart of a dispute with the Bureau of Land Management, asked why Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., is calling for a civil war, Newsmax reported. Bundy appeared on the program to respond to overheated rhetoric from the left which has now prompted some to call for drone strikes against the ranch.

"Why, Harry, are you calling for a civil war?" Bundy asked. "That's not what we the people want. We just want to disarm the army, and get out of our state, and start acting like citizens of the United States."

Although some of Bundy's supporters are members of various milita groups and had weapons, Bundy said it was federal agents who had guns drawn on them during a standoff earlier this month. Photos from video taken by one of Bundy's sons clearly showed snipers deployed against the ranch.....

Well, if the clown wants a war there is a sure fire way he can get one.

People (politicians) go to war because they think they can win. Nobody realizes, apparently, that no plan survives contact with the enemy. Wars always expand beyond the scope of their planners. There are almost always more casualties and more unintended consequences than were envisioned.

Harry Reid wants a war because it’s not like he will be doing any of the shooting will he.

That's not what we the people want.

I beg to differ. People are fed up with these assholes.

He would be holed up in a brothel in Searchlight or underground in the old West Virginia big bunker for government cowards.

People in Nevada should draft Clive Bundy as a DEMOCRAT to run against Harry Reid.

You know, there is also the possibility that this all boils down to the dems, faced with loss of power, almost certain loss of power, want a war just to stay in power.

I mean it ain’t like it’s an unused idea in the pages of history. And they absolutely are that insane. The GOP does nothing to stop them.

Sure I know many issues line up behind this. But really, this may well be the DC Dem equivalent of a child’s tantrum with no more thought behind it than that.

Thats just the sort of thing narcissistic megalomaniacs do when cornered.

If a civil war will secure Harry and his pals their million-billion retirement, then Harry will have his civil war.

There’s plenty of evidence with Obama’s actions that make that scenario valid.

‘could be that Dingy Harry's in a tight spot - on the one hand is his inflated ego, born from years of being able to wheel and dirty deal with impunity, leading him to think he can do so forever - that NO ONE would DARE to appose h im.

On the older hand, he may have pre-collected a hefty ‘finder's fee’ from whichever entity/entities want that land - and he may not be able to return it.

He might have some on his other side that frighten him even more than our ‘domestic terrorists’ - He's probably not sleeping too well these days -

tin pot tyrants ALWAYS get caught up with...May it be so.

Harry is about to lose his exalted position. He will try anything to turn the tide. The Koch Brother thing is not getting traction. If he can provoke the Tea Party/Militia into doing something to help retain his power he will do it.
