Cliven Bundy: Coyote Master
Ain't this all of it?
Slave master Cliven Bundy does not own that land out there in the back and beyond. His imaginary plantation on public lands is not his to oversee. The Federal government is not the owner either for that mater. The land belongs to all and is a trust for everybody. He pretends it is his because his family has been squatting there for a few years, while the BLM tries to lock it away from everybody so it can be a military preserve or nuclear waste dump - nonsense equals nonsense.
I have seen the BLM pay hunters to kill coyotes from helicopters for the fucking ranchers and seen ridiculous use restrictions on boaters in the Ruby Marshes near Elko. People came out with their guns there to confront the arrogant BLM. I have been on the bombing ranges, ammo dumps, radioactive waste dumps, and the federal government water projects that drain Indian lands for the benefit of a few farmers next door.
About that next stupid, 2016 election: a bleeding pox on them all. A pox on the very concept that only two parties made up of self appointed opportunists, morons, bigots, and assholes as the only source of leadership and change in America. Sickness to death on Republicans and Democrats with their pointless positions and self-served posturing, and likewise to the "Right" and the "Left" with their moralistic, bigoted, thoughtless drivel, leading nowhere, doing nothing, and producing emptiness. Fear and loathing on the acid of failure is waiting in the back alleys, lurking in the shadows for to come out and greet weary, disillusioned voters after 16 years of aborted Presidents and impaired leaders everywhere.
No, not a tired old political hack from another era like Hillary for President, or ignorant religious bigots like Huckabee either. A man who thinks that Sharia Law ain't so bad as long as you change "Mohammad" to Jesus" and make him the supreme judge. Don't even start on nasty opportunist assholes Cruz and Ryan. Lest we forget mean morons Perry and Palin or stiff elitist posers Kerry and Romney, one and all out of touch with any average person in the normal world. Biden the Brain Dead or Reid the Ridiculous, pulease. Jindal or Rubio or Cuomo or Dean again, horrifying! Four more years of the incompetence of the likes of Bush and Obama, could anyone really want that? Anyone for a nasty old sailor from Arizona, who just won't go out into the wilderness and die?
To call the current parties and politicians a bizarre clown show bearing no connection to reality in 2014 is to complement and praise them. They are much, much less than that.
Say goodnight, leave a light on for the next owners. Maybe they will be better.
God save the coyotes from the helicopters.
