Nevada rancher Cliven Bundy wonders if the "Negro" was better off as a slave picking cotton.

Courtesy of the New York Times:  

For now, Mr. Bundy appears to have won, forcing the government to back down after its rangers were met with armed Bundy supporters this month. 

“The gather is now over,” said Craig Leff, a deputy assistant director with the Bureau of Land Management. “Our focus is pursuing this matter administratively and judicially.” 

But if the federal government has moved on, Mr. Bundy — a father of 14 and a registered Republican — has not. 

He said he would continue holding a daily news conference; on Saturday, it drew one reporter and one photographer, so Mr. Bundy used the time to officiate at what was in effect a town meeting with supporters, discussing, in a long, loping discourse, the prevalence of abortion, the abuses of welfare and his views on race. 

“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.”

Well what do you know?  The anti-government scofflaw is a racist.

Whoda thunk it? (Me, me, I thunk it.)

Well this is certainly going to complicate things for those politicians who spoke out in support of this moron isn't it?

Yep.

Courtesy of Raw Story:

The remarks brought about a quick rebuke from Chandler Smith, a spokesperson for Sen. Dean Heller (R-NV). Heller had previously called Bundy and his supporters “patriots” for their actions and challenged Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid’s (D-NV) description of them as “domestic terrorists.” 

Smith told the Times that Heller “completely disagrees with Mr. Bundy’s appalling and racist statements, and condemns them in the most strenuous way.” 

Bundy’s speech also seemingly derailed Texas Attorney General Greg Abbott’s (R) apparent attempt to link his gubernatorial campaign to the Bunkerville camp; Abbott had allegedly written a letter to the BLM accusing it of “threatening” to seize land along the Red River in northern Texas. 

But after being contacted regarding the rancher’s “Negro” remarks, a spokesperson for Abbott was quoted as saying that Abbott’s letter “was regarding a dispute in Texas and is in no way related to the dispute in Nevada.”

Well it looks like this thing might have played itself out.

Unless of course the majority of his supporters are just as racist as he is.

Uh oh.

    As for family life, Mr Bundy, families were broken up and sold off to the highest bidder. "Families" were brood stock. I could go on but I'm making myself sick.

    1. The federal government owns 84% of the land in nevada. This means they literally have a monopoly over the land. Theres a reason there are few ranchers left. With a monopoly on the land they can use to graze their cattle they pay higher prices to graze their cattle. When my family lived in iowa and owned a decent amount of land we allowed farmers to graze cattle free of charge, not saying it should be free but you can guarantee itd be cheaper if farmers could negotiate with more: http://bit.ly/1ifYe8e

    Cliven Bundy reminds the conservative press the dangers of touting extremist cranks as national heroes

    ...Most conservatives who rushed to support Bundy knew that he probably was this odious of a racist—anti-government cranks almost always are—but they also knew they could coast on the benefit of the doubt that is extended as a matter of course to angry white right wing nuts on this issue, even when they’re spouting barely coded racist arguments. And he blew it by opening his big mouth and confirming what everyone, and I mean everyone, already knew was likely true.

    Nor should be particularly surprised that Bundy felt free to be so open about his opinions. This guy has successfully been robbing the taxpayers and he’s getting widespread support for it! He must have felt invincible.

    The silver lining in all this is that it’s now going to be much easier for the federal government to shut Bundy down. The level of public support he’s gotten has surely played a role in federal concerns that he and his supporters will open fire on law enforcement, and that level of support is drying up as we speak.

    One of Bundy's Mormon patriarchs, Brigham Young stated this about the negro...On another occasion, Young said, "You see some classes of the human family that are black, uncouth, uncomely, disagreeable and low in their habits, wild, and seemingly deprived of nearly all the blessings of the intelligence that is generally bestowed upon mankind …. Cain slew his brother. Cain might have been killed, and that would have put a termination to that line of human beings. This was not to be, and the Lord put a mark upon him, which is the flat nose and black skin. Trace mankind down to after the flood, and then another curse is pronounced upon the same race—that they should be the ‘servant of servants’; and they will be, until that curse is removed; and the Abolitionists cannot help it, nor in the least alter that decree." The "fruit" has not fallen far from the tree.

We believe that women are useful not only to sweep houses, wash dishes, make beds, and raise babies, but that they should stand behind the counter, study law or physic [medicine], or become good book-keepers and be able to do the business in any counting house, and this to enlarge their sphere of usefulness for the benefit of society at large."

    Bundy Tries To Clarify His Slavery Remarks: 'I'm Not Racist'

    Nevada rancher Cliven Bundy made the rounds on conservative radio shows Thursday, trying to explain his musings about whether blacks had been "better off as slaves."

    In an interview with conspiracy extraordinaire Alex Jones, Bundy said he would appreciate it if The New York Times retracted their story.

    "I would appreciate that. I think they should do that," Bundy said. "They're making it a racist-type thing. I'm not racist."

    Bundy also went on The Peter Schiff Show to explain his remarks, as Mediaite reported. Noting that the word on the Internet was that Cliven Bundy is a racist, the host asked if Bundy wanted to clarify his remarks. Here's what Bundy said:

    "Today, Bundy revealed himself to be a hateful racist," said the Nevada Democrat, who has criticized the rancher in a public spat over land use. "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."

    Reid also called on national Republicans to "help show a united front against this kind of hateful, dangerous extremism by publicly condemning Bundy."

They basically pick their friends based on who their ‘enemies’ are. In this case, a lot of people in conservative media have raced to this guy’s defense. They must be feeling very exposed this morning.”

    Greta: ‘I Condemn What Cliven Bundy Said About African Americans’

    In the wake of Nevada rancher Cliven Bundy‘s remarks about “the Negro” possibly being better off under slavery than under government subsidy, Fox’s Greta Van Susteren wants to make one thing clear: She condemns the comments.

    In a blog post titled “LET ME MAKE THIS PLAIN: I CONDEMN WHAT CLIVEN BUNDY SAID ABOUT AFRICAN AMERICANS,” Van Susteren makes it plain that she condemns what Cliven Bundy said about African-Americans.
    She provides the full New York Times excerpt to demonstrate for her readers what, exactly, she is condemning.

    Bundy's remarks were not surprising.
    He hit some of the high points of the tea party RW , African Americans and abortion.
    He left out women , gays , Hispanics and Jews, but, I have no doubt they're out there somewhere.
    Roger Ailes should suspend Hannity for becoming Bundy's PR guy.
    There have to be rare , but,
    sane commentators at FOX ( Brit Hume, Chris Wallace ) who must be apoplectic
    that they have been tarred with the FOX News Hannity brush of racism and idiocy.
    Although they have remained silent when being lumped in with that moron Palin , so who knows ?
    FOX News has been lying down with dogs
    for years , so they shouldn't be surprised they are now covered in fleas.
    Elected Republicans had a chance to stand up to Bundy in the beginning , but, they remain terrified of the small RW fringe.
    Scarborough being one , if not the only one , to continue to speak out against the unhinged.
    And he's despised for doing so by the tea party ,
    talk radio fringe.
    This mess has to hurt Republicans in 2014 and they have only themselves to blame.
    Like FOX News many of them cowardly refuse to distance themselves from the kooks.
    Although, I do wonder if the elected Republicans who try and make nice or avoid criticizing the tea party wing,
    do so out of fear for their lives.
    The armed militia in sniper positions on the Interstate overpass who were ready and willing to fire on law enforcement officials in Nevada
    must give them pause.
    The recent murders at the Jewish Community Center in Kansas are another example
    of the increasing and bold fringe.
    FOX News , the tea party,
    including Palin and Cruz and RW talk radio have purposefully ginned up the unstable .
    Whatever their craven reasons, money or ratings or political agreement ,
    they are all accessories to the
    to the increasingly dangerous lunacy.
    Whether you are a Democrat, Republican or Independent, we should all be concerned about them
    enabling and encouraging this easily
    agitated and volatile element.

      Hannity should lose his job...other networks would have fired or had their folks resign under similar circumstances.

      Hannity has laid down w/another racist - for years now - which is Sarah Palin. She was shown to be that in Alaska too - against the first people of the state! Plus, we all know how she feels as to our wonderful POTUS.

    “Are they better off being slaves in that sense or are they better off being slaves of the United States government in the sense of a subsidy?” Bundy said.

    It does not appear that Bundy posed his question to his black acquaintance, but The Atlantic’s Ta-Nehisi Coates published a column Thursday that addresses his concerns.

    Coates quotes several anecdotal accounts from Thavolia Glymph’s 2003 book, “Out of the House of Bondage,” to illustrate how brutal treatment of slaves was used to enforce white supremacy.

    “Enslaved black people were, with some regularity, beat with cowhide whips, tongs, pokers, chairs, and wooden boards,” Coates writes. “Nails were driven through their palms, pins through their tongues. Eyes were gouged out for the smallest offense.”

    “When people like Cliven Bundy assert the primacy of the past it is important that we do not recount it selectively,” he continues. “American enslavement is the destruction of the black body for profit. That is the past that Cliven Bundy believes ‘the Negro’ to have been better off in. He is, regrettably, not alone.”

    Bundy's sixty four years old, is a registered Republican, and had Fox news on him like white on rice, like flies on a turd, he's a card carrying member of the "dicky do" club, and fathered 14 children. Those dang privileged white guys reproduce like rabbits, don't they? They steal from Government land then base their hate on skin color.
    Once the racist video came out, Sean and Fox shit their pants and accused "Democrats" of bringing up the "GOP Racism" LIE. It's on video tape. Greta even chimed in with similar bullshit.
    What a bunch of ignorant racist cowards! Gotta give Bundy credit, though. He doesn't hold his racist views to himself.

    FOX news - Hannity and Greta (both supported Sarah Palin and kept her in the forefront for eons!) are going down....only the extreme right will view them and their numbers are actually low when looking at the millions watching TV across the nation.

    You don't even need to turn your dial to them as it will increase their ratings. Their daily shows are being covered and talked about on the internet, various blogs, the media and through various politicians.

    Americans are figuring out what FOX really is and I'll betcha Republicans are going to be voted out of office across the nation. They are a horrendous party and are doing zero for Americans. The lack of support (for the poor and middle class) from politicians begins in the U.S. Congress. Vote them out when you have the chance. Check their voting records - etc.

    Pay attention too to the advertisements being done by the Koch Brothers...they are pro the Republican party. They have lotsa $$$ to spend in campaigns being run across the nation. They will run ads against Dems in your local areas...pay attention and tell them to get the hell out of your state just like Mark Begich (U.S. Congress) has done in Alaska! KICK THEIR ASSES OUT!!! Write letters to the editor of your local newspaper explaining who they are and what they are doing.

    Get your voters out for the upcoming elections! We can beat the Koch $$$ by each single vote!
