Morning, good people!
Well, there's nothing the Freeperati nutcases are better at than holding two completely opposing ideas close to their alleged hearts at the same time, so let's open up a few drums of the stupid and let it flow.
In reverse order, of course.
First up – That's not racist!
A Defiant Rancher Savors the Audience That Rallied to His Side

BUNKERVILLE, Nev. — Cliven Bundy stood by the Virgin River up the road from the armed checkpoint at the driveway of his ranch, signing autographs and posing for pictures. For 55 minutes, Mr. Bundy held forth to a clutch of supporters about his views on the troubled state of America — the overreaching federal government, the harassment of Western ranchers, the societal upheaval caused by abortion, even musing about whether slavery was so bad.
** snip **
“I want to tell you one more thing I know about the Negro,” he said. Mr. Bundy recalled driving past a public-housing project in North Las Vegas, “and in front of that government house the door was usually open and the older people and the kids — and there is always at least a half a dozen people sitting on the porch — they didn’t have nothing to do. They didn’t have nothing for their kids to do. They didn’t have nothing for their young girls to do.
“And because they were basically on government subsidy, so now what do they do?” he asked. “They abort their young children, they put their young men in jail, because they never learned how to pick cotton. And I’ve often wondered, are they better off as slaves, picking cotton and having a family life and doing things, or are they better off under government subsidy? They didn’t get no more freedom. They got less freedom.”

Bundy is now being slammed by the left for being a racist.

Like clockwork, the slime’rat response – smear and attack the victim.
These people are despicable.

The only thing Bundy is a victim of is himself. Or of the media, for quoting him accurately.

Some say that "deadbeat journalist" Adam Nagourney of the New York Times is good friends with certain Hollywood honchos and puppeteers…

Exactly.
Bundy and everyone that supported him are now racists.
Of course they knew that all along…

Only because they (unlike yourself) have sequentially firing neurons.
Some of the Freeperati have enough single-direction cognition to understand that this was a shit-stupid thing to admit (although not to believe):

When a man sticks a "kick me" sign on his own behind…
If he had a better grasp of the fact that black family life has disintegrated in direct correlation to the "War on Poverty", he has a defensible position. Throwing out that "picking cotton" allusion is just stupid.

Actually, if these statements are accurate he will be slammed by 90% of America for pretty blatant racist remarks. Paul, Heller, etc, pretty much everyone is going to walk about from someone who talks like this.
“I want to tell you one more thing I know about the Negro,” he said. Mr. Bundy recalled driving past a public-housing project in North Las Vegas, “and in front of that government house the door was usually open and the older people and the kids — and there is always at least a half a dozen people sitting on the porch — they didn’t have nothing to do. They didn’t have nothing for their kids to do. They didn’t have nothing for their young girls to do.

I mean, come on now. You can't stand around talking about how the negro should have learned to pick cotton. I mean, even the most hard headed amongst us should understand that you can't ally yourself politically with a person who makes such remarks.
Conservatives really, really, need to pick their battles better. How so many of us get suckered into supporting cranks, completely unelectable candidates, scam artists like Herman Cain who run for office to fund a book tour, etc, etc, I will never understand.
That one's easy:

I wonder what those percentages are on this board. I can see this thread turning into a powder keg.
