One of the supporters serving as a bodyguard for Nevada rancher Cliven Bundy during his standoff with federal authorities -- and who also happens to be black -- said he would still "take a bullet for" Bundy after the rancher made racially inflammatory comments.
CNN's Dan Simon noticed Jason Bullock, a six-year Army veteran who serves as one of Bundy's bodyguards, hanging around at the Nevada ranch. Simon asked Bullock whether he found Bundy's remarks about blacks and slavery offensive.
"Mr. Bundy is not a racist," he told CNN. "Ever since I've been here, he's treated me with nothing but hospitality. He's pretty much treating me just like his own family."
"I would take a bullet for that man if need be. I look up to him just like I do my own grandfather," he added. "I believe in his cause and after having met Mr. Bundy a few times, I have a really good feel about him and I'm a pretty good judge of character."

“..Rob Astorino is extremely impressive as well. “
Astorino was interviewed by Betsy McCaughey (Ingraham’s guest host) on Laura Ingraham’s show today. He was GREAT!
Maybe his website will have the interview:

This man's name is Jason Bullock. He is a is a six-year Army veteran who is out in Nevada and has volunteered to serve as one of Cliven Bundy's bodyguards.
As you can see, Jason Bullock is also a black American.
That's what he had to say about Cliven Bundy, early this week, after Bundy's remarks were widly reported, and when CNN interviewed Bullock and asked him if Cliven Bundy's remarks had offended him.
"No, not at all. Mr. Bundy is not a racist.
"Ever since I've been here, he's treated me with nothing but hospitality. He's pretty much treating me just like his own family.
"I would take a bullet for that man if need be. I look up to him just like I do my own grandfather. I believe in his cause and after having met Mr. Bundy, I have a really good feeling about him and I'm a pretty good judge of character."
That pretty much speaks for itself.
In this country, we had slavery for God knows how long. And now we look back on it and we say How brave were they? What was the matter with them? You know, I cant believe, you know, four million slaves. This is incredible. And were right, were right. We should look back on that with criticism. It is a crushing mark on Americas soul. And yet today, half of all black children are aborted. Half of all black children are aborted. Far more of the African-American community is being devastated by the policies of today than were being devastated by policies of slavery.
One could certainly make the argument that the above comment was racist..........but yet he was given a pass.
Trent Franks, congressman from Arizona........
Thats, the funnyest re-ply regards to grammer I’d read in so much a long time were did you come on with it. Is it the same way you always talk and making fun of other peoples.? Does you now it that you may be not the own that made your self look really and total dump with it? Hahaha. My if you new watt you just sed again because it fun.
(&etc...blah, blah, \sarc...)...
Left Wing CNN biased reporting.
Yeah, BOR was at his as usual moronic level. Bernard Goldberg was over the top. He should know better since he reports on the lies and delusions of the liberal press.
Thank you very much. First thing in the AM I turn of the TV news to see if California is STILL attached to the USA.
First thing in the office I go on line and to FR for the REAL news. TV (etc) “news” is quite a bit different from REALITY, isn’t it?
A “thinking” person checks the “Media” for the days disaster, then goes elsewhere to check the Real World.
Whatever happened to the rumor that California was going to fall into the ocean from a huge earthquake?
Mr. Bundy is nothing more than a rancher.........
That's why professionals hire publicists and attorneys to do their talking for them.
And the lack of such support is why the MSM swarms in on folks such as the Bundys with their pros in hopes to get the damning confessions that might garner them a Pulitzer...........
Like my grandfather always said: "Never enter a fight with the MSM unless armed with an attorney........."
Considering all the facts supporting Mr. Bundy, I'll gladly stay hitched to the train while all the Good Time Charleys and their propagandists try to take him down...........
So be it.
Has Hannity been hanging out with Imus?
That knucklehead Imus today said he’s voting for Hillary! I screamed! I like the show only for everyone BUT Imus.
Idiot.
I hope O’Reilly, Hannity and others will not continue in their ways.
If they do, I expect them to try as hard as they can to avoid commenting on what Jason Bullock is really saying.
For years I subscribed to the NYTimes. As they became more and more liberal (or possibly I became more aware) I bought it reluctantly for the crossword puzzle.
As much as I miss doing their crossword puzzle I won’t buy it, not even if I’m at the airport and have nothing to reason the plane. No way. I’d rather read the plane safety card in the seat pocket than read their lies.
CNN’s Dan Simon “noticed” the black guy. What a racist!
