A pity the writer was as concerned about the sense of entitlement that passes for ‘good government’ in Washington, DC

I saw a mini-debate on MSNBC over this ranch cow standoff and it was claimed that the Dept of Agriculture can just confiscate the $$$ from the eventual sale of the cows, before it even reaches Bundy.

....Meaning the armed confrontation (by the government) was unnecessary.

Sterling got the cameras away from Bundy (finally)

Total disconnect by my Frenemy, Katrina.
No one thought Bundy shouldn’t pay his fees. Many thought the government fees and the show of force was excessive.
The “Progressives” think they’ve won again.

Bundy is privileged?? quote of the day- a liberal in the gym just today told me what Bundy said was far more racist than the comments of the liberal Clippers owner Sterling...

May I venture a guess that someone named Katrina vanden Heuvel is among the oldest of the old blood in New York City, going all the way back to the days when it was called New Amsterdam?

Whereas Cliven Bundy is just a hard-working cowboy whose family has worked that difficult land for more than a hundred years, while her family attended concerts and opera and fashionable parties?

Talk about the 1%. Most of the 1% are rich, privileged liberals, like this lady.

The colonies recieve the protection of the crown. The French and Indian War was costly to the empire and the colonies should be happy to reimburse the crown through any tax it so chooses to impose.

The authorette is a raving lunatic Marxist leftist who would make Karl Marx blush in embarrassment. She is rabid. She should be laughed at and then ignored.

The federal government owns 86% of the land in Nevada and more than 30% of the land in the USA. that's unconstitutional : http://benswann.com/lofti-who-actually-owns-americas-land-a-deeper-look-at-the-bundy-ranch-crisis/ >

the government OWNING this much land in Nevada and other states is socialism/communism. the land must be given to the states and individuals NOW. Nothing is more monstrous to me than government owning land

The gov is using 30% of the U.S. land for environmentalism when private companies could be using those vast resources to get oil, oil shale, logging, farmland etc.. Use Google to see that just on government owned lands in the west there is more recoverable oil than all of the rest of the world combined

The accusation that someone is a “racist” is all that the counterculture Democrats and the counterculture Democrat’s Left Stream Media need today for control a large population of people who dare to think and/or speak the same ideas as the accused “racist.”

Thus, the power of the word “racist” is valid only as long as no facts are required by the targeted population to substantiate the accusation by those who do the accusing.

If, someday, the accused is considered “innocent until proven guilty” by the facts, then the power of false accusatory words such as “racists,” “domestic terrorists” and other mind-control words used by the counterculture Democrats and their media, will be relegated to the low level used by the school yard bullies who tried to manipulate all of us back in the day.

IOW, we, OURSELVES, allow ourselves to be manipulated because we have forgotten the words of wisdom from our early childhoods: “Sticks and stones may break my bones, but names will never hurt me!”

Wake up America! The Civil War and the Civil Rights Movement have long since been Won and Done!

Time to grow up America, reject the PC Word Police, mind-control, school-yard bullies on the counterculture Left!

If “We, the People,” stand for FREEDOM of speech, then we must insist that ALL, (especially the manipulators on The Left), listen as well as they speak!

It is time, - - - time for a change.

Hurricane Katrina Van Dumb Hooval at it again. This witch is the poster girl for leftist entitlement. She has never lifted a finger and would have never lifted a finger to work the land like Bundy. How much of her labor went into the food she buys?

Most people have misunderstood this whole kerfuffle. What this amounts to is another demonstration of the failure of Communism. The land is owned and controlled by the government for public use. The party bosses re-allocated the land at the expense of the ranchers for the benefit of...The party bosses?

There never were any “joys of slavery” for ANY person, in all the history of the world, placed in involuntary bondage. Slavery has ALWAYS meant punishment for the person subject to its imposition.

And not only punishment, but the total degradation of any trait that could be called “human”. The slave is a non-person, a thing, lacking entirely dignity or respect, and the object of scorn and brutality.

The former street beggars are now given a place to keep a roof over their and gather family together, which is a distinct improvement in terms of keeping them out of sight, but the burden upon the soul to be physically and psychologically dependent on the kindness of strangers has to be destructive to the spirit in every way. Still very nearly prisoners, as those called “slave”, and shunned by society at large, is their lot significantly better than that of the slave?

THAT was what Cliven Bundy was talking about - the poverty of spirit and of opportunity which is the lot of so many of our citizens who are descendants of slaves, and to whom no real boost out of their predicament has been offered. Instead, they are frozen in their present condition, as if they were flies caught in amber, forever fixed and with no life or hope ever to be in prospect.

These two conditions of humanity, slavery or total dependency, are NOT the only options that are or ought to be offered to ANY person. There is more, so much more, that should be available in a country that is nominally “free”. What Cliven Bundy was talking about is the diminution and in some instances, total obliteration of free will and opportunity.

Rights as citizens of the United States are not granted by government fiat. They are God-given right, and the purpose of government is to get out of the way of enjoyment of those rights.

The hypocrisy from the Left is staggering at this point. From the NBA’s selective disgust with an owner, to Dear Leader.... Mental contortionists on the verge of psychosis.
