Get those other 53 ranchers to form a coalition and get the news media to carry the story and then you have something. Let them tell their stories of harassment and show a pattern of the feds abusing law abiding ranchers. That’s good and compelling because they’re not breaking the law based on a kook theory.

In the end Bundy’s argument for not paying the fees is a lie. It’s dead wrong, so on all the other counts where he’s right he’ll actually undermine the movement.

Are the feds out of control, do they abuse their authority in the sparsely populated west against ranchers, and do they need to be reined in big time? Yes, but Bundy’s the wrong guy to make a last stand on.

One of them might have been better . . . if they still had a ranch. The last ranch standing—take it or leave it.

Ah, no - the GOVERNMENT is liars, starting with President Simba, and trickling down to all his lying flunkies.

The targeting of Cliven Bundy started with the Clinton administration in 1993.

I guess you're OK with a government conspiring against its citizens...
