Priceless. How many shekels of silver did this guy sell his soul for? And he's calls himself a cowboy?

"You notice there’s no cattlemen that are standing beside Bundy. The Nevada Cattlemen’s Association, the stock owner associations from across the West are not with this guy,” Schweitzer said on MSNBC’s “The Ed Show” on Friday. “They support what the BLM does. This guy, Bundy, is, I mentioned before, I think he’s a grifter.”

While Bundy has attracted a number of supporters to his side, Schweitzer said they don’t have ranchers’ interests at heart.

“Apparently Bundy has organized a group of ne’er-do-wells from all across this country,” Schweitzer said. “These are not cattlemen; they’re not people of the land. They are just people that want to stir up trouble.”

While federal authorities last weekend ended an armed standoff with Bundy and his supporters and released back cattle they had confiscated on federal land, Schweitzer said the federal government will get its unpaid grazing fees through the courts and through liens on Bundy’s cattle, which he’ll eventually have to sell.

“That is the financial solution to this,” Schweitzer said. “The guy is still a law-breaker and he has thumbed his nose at law enforcement. … The sheriff is a law-abiding citizen and he is law enforcement. Of course he understands there’s a court order that has already been issued against Bundy and he’s going to support that.”

sure would be nice if everyone agreed on this, but alas, some people are just evil and can't help it.

What a way to slant things there Bud...

The author makes it sound as if the fedcoats actually had options and voluntarily chose to retreat out of the kindness in their hearts...

Associations are not cattlemen.

Just like the Chamber of Commerce who have no real interest in promoting commerce.

Cattlemen? There are no cattlemen.



“Apparently Bundy has organized a group of ne’er-do-wells from all across this country,” Schweitzer said. “These are not cattlemen; they’re not people of the land. They are just people that want to stir up trouble.”


BLM, right?

Sadly this guy is one of the less awful Democrats that plan to run for president.

Schweitzer wants to move onward and upward. His '12 DNC convention speech seemed like an application for Secretary of the Interior, and criticizing the BLM would probably hurt his chances.

Is that supposed to be an insult?

99.99% of politicians are Grifters. They're always peddling their snake oil.

Former Montana Governor... these cowards never open their mouths while in office.

If Brian Schweitzer wants to talk smack about controversy, look no further than Schweitzer's history on campaign money funneling-laundering.

Of course it's all spewed on MSNBC's continuous circle jerking of the 10 Planks of the Communist Manifesto
