Those cows are ruthless I'm telling you. Plus, the wild horses (which probably outnumber them 5:1) are in on it also. They can kick.

Just more hyperbole by the government apologists.

this kind of rhetoric does nothing to further understanding. Its divisive, mean spirited, and only meant as an insult. "government apologist" is also hyperbole, which is kind of ironic. I imagine you support at least some government, does that make you a government apologist?

Not to mention a steady diet of white entitlement.

Let's hope the residents of Malheur County vote down a proposal to make 2.5 million more acres of land locked in with Monument status.

HDDJ, is there ever a day that you wake up and momentarily forget you're shouldering an
unduly high proportion of the White Man's Burden?

Shh, don't tell him. He's obviously been carrying mine for quite some time now and I don't want it back.

Quite the opposite, actually. I find it quite freeing to not be constantly making excuses for racism. You should try it.

Holsteins as well as harboring a soft spot for Guernseys.

I recall the Clinton administration reclassified the job description of Cowboy to eliminate the sexism in the term.

They became Bovine Beings.

Yes, you are correct. Very astute.

Anyone that attempts to somehow inflate the urgency and perfidiously aggrandize the situation with Bundy's cattle by making them seem like its some great burden to round them up and make it seem like its a matter of public urgency deserves that type of response.

Don't push people out of their comfort zones. You're dealing with fragile egos here.

Idaho's Republican primary is this Tuesday. The Spokane newspaper that also covers Idaho news had this article today. http://www.spokesman.com/blogs/outdoors/2016/mar/06/idaho-cruz-says-fed-should-transfer-public-lands-states-private-interests/

SUNDAY, MARCH 6, 2016, 4:11 P.M.

In Idaho, Cruz says feds should transfer public lands to states, private interests
PUBLIC LANDS -- Hunters, anglers, hikers, nature lovers, huckleberry pickers -- all you should take note of this issue.

Stumping for the Republican presidential nomination in Idaho Saturday, Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, says the federal government should get out of public lands management.

Remember, he lives in TEXAS. He doesn't know any better. Try to find some public land for hunting in TEXAS.

With about 2 percent of the state in federal lands jurisdiction, Texans flood to Colorado and other public land states to hunt each year.

Listen to Cruz spell it out in his own words in this short the video report from the Idaho Statesman.

When he says the land would be better managed by "the people," he doesn't mean people like you and me (we already have part interest in the land under federal management); Cruz means people like the Wilks brothers. Google that, or better yet, ask a Central Montanan.

Rubio is also wasting some time campaigning in Idaho. He was supporting stealing OUR public lands from US before the Nevada primary and I expect more of the same.
