Well, by dismissing Bundy as a “side issue” Perry is not showing much courage.

Really?

You think Rick Perry should have stepped on that land mine? You think Perry should have made Bundy’s racist remarks the main issue instead of the Federal land grabbing going on?

Do you really think that it would be politically dangerous for Perry to state that he is opposed to slavery? I think that's a safe position. And that would free Perry to remain supportive of Bundy's real battle - his struggle with the Feds. He wouldn't have to dismiss Bundy as a "side issue."

If Perry thinks the slavery issue is a "land mine," then I think he should do some polling on the issue. Most people are adamantly opposed to slavery.
