Well, you tried, old timer.

The feds never should have gone in there with the shock-and-awe campaign, heavily armed, snipers, tasers, choppers.

If nothing else this will help show good people what the minions of Obama and Reid are capable of, and how an effective resistance might be mounted.

But as to the details of Bundy’s contract, and the long history of the dispute, and his insistence on paying the county and such—there are too many versions and too much intensity to sort it all out right now.

I’m not a rancher but I live amongst ‘em and I hear more private-land ranchers gripe about the great deal the government-land-leasers get than anything else.

But those gripes, like anything else, are one side of the story. The real lesson from the Bundy situation is that it is increasingly difficult, costly and even dangerous to dance with the devil out of D.C.

Now we know what the grazing fees pay for.
