Harry Reid Slams Bundy As 'Hateful Racist' And Hypocritical Moocher

Budget-battle--36
Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid
Harry Reid was a boxer when he was young.  He still knows how to hit hard.  This Cliven Bundy high noon drama on the desert is a dilemma the GOP has created for itself.  They are wedded to the meme that government aid makes you lazy.  They so habitually identify black and Latin citizens as prime recipients of such aid that the "blacks are lazy" notion comes to characterize their thinking, with a host of superficially neutral rationalizations - the nanny state liberals ruined "them".  But the inevitable product is "they are lazy" - the old racist saw.  So conservatives are constantly denouncing liberals who accuses conservatives of being racists because, well, you know...if it quacks like a duck... - gwc
Harry Reid Slams Bundy As 'Hateful Racist' And Hypocritical Moocher:

"I used to live in North Las Vegas and it is home to some of the hardest-working people I have ever met - men and women who embody the American dream by working hard every day to build a better life for themselves and their families. By contrast, Cliven Bundy has spent decades profiting off government land while refusing to pay the same fair use fees as his fellow ranchers. Today, Bundy revealed himself to be a hateful racist. But by denigrating people who work hard and play by the rules while he mooches off public land he also revealed himself to be a hypocrite.

“To advance his extreme, hateful views, Bundy has endangered the lives of innocent women and children. This is not a game. It is the height of irresponsibility for any individual or entity in a position of power or influence to glorify or romanticize such a dangerous individual, and anyone who has done so should come to their senses and immediately condemn Bundy. For their part, national Republican leaders could help show a united front against this kind of hateful, dangerous extremism by publicly condemning Bundy."
