Cliven Bundy, Registered Republican.
As the tree is
bent:
Shiree Bundy Cox on Thursday took aim at conservatives who rallied and amplified her father's cause on national television only to abandon him after the media "turned this into a circus side show."
"It's like their trying to throw us off the real subject. Why was this ever even brought up? What does this have to do with land rights issues?" she said in a Facebook post.
"Sean Hannity was all for reporting the happenings at the Bundy Ranch until this popped up. I wonder if someone hoped it would be that way….By the way, I think Mr. Hannity is more worried about his ratings than he really is about what my dad said. If he supports a supposed racist, what will that do to his ratings? He's already lost his #1 spot on Fox," she added.
And that, my friends, ends the latest chapter in the soiling of the surname
Bundy. Cliven has made Ted, Al, and King Kong proud. But before he's gone by Monday morning, I'd add like to add a small note to his ex-friends in the Republican Party:
Dear Republicans,
As a hardcore Democrat, I want you all to know that I think Cliven Bundy is absolutely awesome. You know, I totally get why you all were drawn to this guy: he says honestly and openly what you all agree with, but are too chickenshit and dishonest to say. But make no mistake, he is your Marlboro Man as far as I'm concerned. Whenever I hear any of you say 'small government' or 'low taxes' I am going to think of Cliven Bundy. He is you and you are him.
Sincerely,
bbb
