MEDIA EXPOSED, BUNDY ACTUALLY A LIBERAL:
http://topconservativenews.com/2014...ally-pretty-liberal-media-manipulated-quotes/

Cliven Bundy is actually pretty liberal. Media manipulated quotes.

Cliven Bundy accused the government of having policies that are bad for blacks and Mexicans. He even endorses amnesty for illegal aliens. However, what you heard in the “mainstream” media is that Cliven Bundy went on a “racist” “pro-slavery” rant.

What the New York Times and other left-wing news outlets showed you:

i was unaware of the strife that has overcome the Far Right because of Bundy. Alex Jones vs Glenn Beck vs Michael Savage vs Sean Hannity. This is glorious.
My dad listens to all those meat heads. What's going on there?

If this is all it takes to make someone "liberal" that site is effectively proving that the right's conservative standard bearer - Ronald Reagan - would be run out of the modern Republican party.

Glenn Beck i guess didnt back Bundy from the start so arguments between Jones and Beck followers began. Alex Jones has been doing shows about how Glenn Beck is a government agent who is stealing his material. Now that Hannity has revoked Bundys "Great American" status Hannity is also now in the governments pocket.. ex-followers are calling him a coward and a traitor.

Chaos is erupting amongst the nutcases and bigots and its beautiful.

How does Savage fit into this? That happens to be his favorite.

A lot of my fellow Americans think the racist outburst makes him MORE heroic, not less. Republicans should also start admitting they have created and sustained and fomented a racist problem.
 
Is this "Welfare is the new Slavery" argument catching on with stupid people? First the Duck Dynasty guy, and now this genius, who's one of the (to use the words of the republican prophet R.Reagan) biggest welfare queens in America are all trying to propose this argument.

It's like the Ebola of stupid shit in how quickly it transfers and how quickly it kills any support from them.

The scary part is that if this rhetoric is parroted enough, it will soon be adopted sincerely by a large amount of people. Possibly.
 
Hannity's show intro tonight basically was him trying to re-write his stance to be able big government taking private property, and went to show past reports he had done on old people/poor people/veterans being potentially forced out of their homes by the government.

Only problem is this Bundy situation had nothing to do with that theme.

Did the right thing
People hate racists and yes they have good reasons why. But I doubt half of us would of thought differently if we were to have grown up in that era. It's not because we are bad people, but the generation didn't know any better.

No one can go back in time and give you one reason to why it happened. Hell I'd bet we each have a family member that was a full blown racist. It's sad, but unfortunately true.

I kinda get what you mean by saying how being influenced by racism in the home early on but it's bullshit when you say people didn't know any better. Anyone with half a brain can tell you thinking another person as less than human is wrong.

Well there ya go. Told you guys the thing that would REALLY piss of the Right-wingers was his comments on the Messicans.


And aside from that one dude in this thread that being a racist is okay if you grew up with it, there haven't been very many Bundy defenders. Somewhat surprised about that, since there's a defense force for nearly everything.

This is hilarious. When conspiracy theories collide!
 
Rachel Maddow went HAM on the right-wing press for not understanding the racial politics history behind the Rancher's "I don't believe in the Federal Government" views and thus being completely blind-sided by the fact that he was racist.

I whinny my fervor lowly, for his length is not as great as those of the Hylian war stallions
This should backfire on Fox News, but the other news media has no backbone left.
And so many republicans have themselves so deluded and will just point to it as a liberal media conspiracy.

Fantastic segment by Rachael.

This was a joke right? I mean you really don't mean to link to the Council of Conservative Citizens (CCC) to prove he's not racist, right?

(1) We believe the United States is a Christian country. We believe that the United States of America is a Christian country, that its people are a Christian people, and that its government and public leaders at all levels must reflect Christian beliefs and values. We therefore oppose all efforts to deny or weaken the Christian heritage of the United States, including the unconstitutional prohibitions of prayers and other religious expression in schools and other public institutions.

(2) We believe the United States is a European country and that Americans are part of the European people. We believe that the United States derives from and is an integral part of European civilization and the European people and that the American people and government should remain European in their composition and character. We therefore oppose the massive immigration of non-European and non-Western peoples into the United States that threatens to transform our nation into a non-European majority in our lifetime. We believe that illegal immigration must be stopped, if necessary by military force and placing troops on our national borders; that illegal aliens must be returned to their own countries; and that legal immigration must be severely restricted or halted through appropriate changes in our laws and policies. We also oppose all efforts to mix the races of mankind, to promote non-white races over the European-American people through so-called “affirmative action” and similar measures, to destroy or denigrate the European-American heritage, including the heritage of the Southern people, and to force the integration of the races.

(8) Cultural, national, and racial integrity. We support the cultural and national heritage of the United States and the race and civilization of which it is a part, as well as the expression and celebration of the legitimate subcultures and ethnic and regional identities of our people. We oppose all efforts to discredit, “debunk,” denigrate, ridicule, subvert, or express disrespect for that heritage. We believe public monuments and symbols should reflect the real heritage of our people, and not a politically convenient, inaccurate, insulting, or fictitious heritage.

BILL WEIR, CNN: How does it feel to be abandoned by your friends on FOX? I mean, the only reason we could get you on tonight is because, I'm guessing, they didn't call.

CLIVEN BUNDY: I don't think that I've been abandoned. I think that maybe they misunderstood me a little bit. But I think FOX and I, and Hannity and I, are just right on. And I have no doubt that he would support me if he understood what's really in my heart, and I think he does understand me. I don't think there is a question there.

WEIR: Well, he called you ignorant, racist, repugnant and despicable.

BUNDY: Well, I hope I'm not that way. I tell you what, I'm not.

So, has Fox News covered Bundy at all yesterday? Or have they already dropped it? I know Hannity had to such he had no choice but to, but has any other segments of Fox gave Bundy's comments coverage?

Damn. If you were watching this stuff play out in the media from the beginning, it would be equivalent to watching a trainwreck in slow motion.

Whelp. I that answers my question.

Watching the right wing tripping over themselves to run away from Bundy is a sight to behold, especially when you have comments from these people hailing Bundy as an American hero just a few days prior. Not since the SC upholding ACA and Obama's re-election have I gotten so much enjoyment out of right wing panicking.
GOP do this all the time. Daily Show would have frequent clips where Republicans contradicted themselves either months or sometimes days earlier. They did it so much it got boring.
