[Cincinatus' Wife]

.....However, I also stand for Hannity, Rush, Beck, Fox and all the other conservatives and their right to handle this situation as they feel best for their particular circumstance. I refuse to condemn them and understand the wider implications involved with this incident.

I'm not condemning them, I'm calling them out; asking them to look at what they're doing. If they can't handle this, what in the hell can they handle? Their first instinct should have been to suspect a RAT, not run for the hills.

When the dust settles, it may turn out you were right all along and people like me should not have compromised some underlying principle or worried about the movement's survival. For the time being, it seems even Cliven Bundy agrees with us and is trying to walk back his statement.

It's clear he's right about the harm done to blacks by the all-caring government and many live in as bad a condition as ever. You just don't expose yourself to the media's attack by appearing to say that we were better off as slaves. I know he wasn't justifying the slavery system but in making himself vulnerable to that accusation, he's bringing a threat to the conservative movement that supported his courageous stand against tyranny.
