Harry Whorehouse Reid, as normal, misses the entire point. As Harry Reid stirs up the cows he knows about the task force being positioned to take the ranger. Harry Reid, Eric Holder, Barack Obama, Grand Ma Hillary Clinton will kill you for power and influence.
Sen. Harry Reid (D-Nev.) claimed on Thursday that armed
supporters of rancher Cliven Bundy are “domestic terrorists” and reckless
individuals who put their families in danger.
Speaking at a Las Vegas Review-Journal event, Reid was
clear: “They’re nothing more than domestic terrorists. I repeat: what happened
there was domestic terrorism.”

The rhetoric certainly will do nothing to ease already-high
tensions after the Bureau of Land Management prematurely shut down its
operation to round up Bundy’s “trespass cattle” on Saturday. The federal agency
cited fears of public safety after having run-ins with armed militia members
who traveled to Bunkerville, Nev., to support the rancher.
Bundy reportedly owes the federal government roughly $1
million in grazing fees, an amount he accumulated after he “fired” the Bureau
of Land Management in 1993 over its decision to turn public land into a
protective habitat for the state’s desert tortoise.
There are two court orders that permit BLM to execute a
roundup of 500 to 900 of Bundy’s “trespass cattle,” Reid reportedly said.
Reid, who recently said the situation is “not over,”
revealed on Thursday there is a federal task force being assembled to handle to
the tense situation.

“Clive Bundy does not recognize the United States,” Reid
said. “The United States, he says, is a foreign government. He doesn’t pay his
taxes. He doesn’t pay his fees. And he doesn’t follow the law. He continues to
thumb his nose at authority.”
“It is an issue we cannot let go, just walk away from,” he
added.
