Cliven Bundy Is Leaving The Republican Party --Or did Republicans leave him

Nevada Rancher Cliven Bundy
By Morgan Whitaker, May 27, 2014, Msnbc.com

Nevada rancher Cliven Bundy has decided to leave the Republican Party, according to the Associated Press.

Bundy registered with the Independent American Party at an event in Las Vegas on Friday.

“I haven’t got much good out of the Democrats and Republicans so I decided to try a new one,” Bundy said,according to the Elko Daily Free Press.

The rancher became a bit of a conservative darling last month, drawing the praise of right-wing pundits and politicians alike after he made headlines for his dispute with the Bureau of Land Management over grazing his cattle on public land. Many of his conservative backers began distancing themselves from Bundy after remarks he made about “the Negro” in which he pondered about whether African-Americans might have been “better off as slaves” became public.

“The question is, are they slaves the way they are, where they live as slaves to the charity and government-subsidized homes, and are they slaves when their daughters are having abortions and their sons are in the prisons?” Bundy said in the off-the-cuff comments first reported by theNew York Times.

“I am very quick in calling American citizens ‘patriots,’” one-time Bundy-supporter and Nevada GOP Sen. Dean Heller said in an interview after the remarks surfaced. “Maybe in this case, too quick.”

Harry Reid’s Koch habit --Let's not mention that Sen. Schumer has taken Koch money

House Majority Leader Harry Reid
By Dana Milbank, May 4, 2014, Tdn.com

WASHINGTON -- The time has come to stop the denial and to admit that Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid has a Koch problem.

More than 100 times on the Senate floor in the past few months, Reid has invoked Charles and David Koch, the billionaire brothers who have pumped hundreds of millions of dollars into conservative causes and campaigns.

After a brief respite during the Easter recess (during which time Reid turned his ire to the “domestic terrorists” who supported Cliven Bundy in Reid’s home state of Nevada) the senator has relapsed into a full-blown Koch habit.

Opening a minimum wage debate Wednesday, he said that if “Americans are searching for an answer” to why Republicans “would refuse to raise the minimum wage, they should look no further than Republicans’ billionaire benefactors -- I repeat, billionaire benefactors -- the Koch brothers.”

After Republicans blocked a minimum wage increase with a filibuster, Reid went to the Senate TV gallery and complained that “Republicans are defending ... the Koch brothers, while they come to the floor and oppose raising the minimum wage.”

Asked a question about a proposed constitutional amendment that would limit campaign contributions. Reid answered with a non sequitur: “The Koch brothers, of course, have -- they scored this vote,” he said. “In effect what they did is say, ‘If you vote yes, we’re not going to be with you anymore.’”

I caught up with Reid in the hall outside and asked whether he was concerned that all these Koch mentions were turning him into a Koch addict. “I tried that line; nobody picked it up,” he said. “I said they were Koch addicts.”

He did, on March 4: “Senate Republicans are addicted to Koch.”
