Discussion for article #222010
I’m torn between…
a) Militia Kookdom is thicker than melanin.
b) Some of his best friends are black!
So, he will take a bullet for a man who thinks he might be better off a slave. I hope that he doesn’t take any kind of government subsidy because he might get kicked off the plantation.
Mental illness is nothing to laugh at.
I think we should all agree, Mr Bundy’s 15 minutes of fame, (or 15 days on Fox News) are OVER!!!
What chaps my hide is that Cliven Bundy has the means to pay for bodyguards - probably because he doesn’t spend that money paying the grazing fees he owes.
My good man, you most definately would take a bullet for "Mr. Bundy."
Because he wouldn’t have it any other way. You may want to keep that in mind…
has it ever occurred to him`y a cattle rancher needs a bodyguard?
I expect his “bodyguards” are fellow militia kooks. Same Rotary-Club-With-Firearms-Masturbation bunch.
". “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.”
“The character of a man is known from his conversations.
Menander (342 BC - 292 BC)”
Not listening I see Jason.
During slavery there were blacks who thought themselves more privileged than other blacks and they would have probably taken a bullet for their owners. There’s a name for people like that.
Okay, for once I’m going to resist making the easy joke,
and just point out that this gentleman is simply avoiding the question
“Simon asked Bullock whether he found Bundy’s remarks about blacks and slavery offensive”
because almost all American would find Bundy’s remarks offensive…when the truth is bad…don’t answer the question, and instead just say whatever the Hell you think will help.
Let me guess, this guy is being paid with money saved from not having paid grazing fees?
And what on earth does Cliven Bundy need bodyguards for in the first place? All the right wing kooks are on his side.
I’d go with some of his paid best friends are black.
Battered negro syndrome?
Who is paying these kooks? Or should I say Kochs?
As a Rotarian I would/ take issue with your classification here. Rotary is a fine organization which may, like others have a few kooks who are members. It does a great deal of good throughout the world and doesn’t deserved to be lumped into this discussion.
By the way, has anyone ever publicly claimed that they were not a good judge of character?
The rightwing’s burning desire to be seen as a bunch of victims certainly knows no color lines. PAY ATTENTION: NOBODY’S GOING TO BE TAKING BULLETS OVER GRAZING RIGHTS. NOT YOUR WOMEN, NOT YOUR SLAVES, NOBODY. You WISH you could take a bullet. You WISH the federal government was evil . You BELIEVE it. But you are a bunch of crazy whackjobs with heatstroke. Enjoy your fantasies, your paranoid ramblings are protected by the US government.
Bundy: "If I say 'negro' or 'black boy' or 'slave,' I'm not -- if those people cannot take those kind of words and not be offensive (sic) then Martin Luther King hasn't got his job done yet."
“Those people”?
Oy.
