Who all here has heard of Ammon Bundy?

[Collimator]

I have only a peripheral knowledge of this guy and his antics, but this gem discusses his latest efforts in Right-Wing Religious Affrontery.

Ammon Bundy: Lying for Jesus, yet again.

[LakeArenal]

1. I remember him. Didn't want to pay to graze on federal land.

Not much happened to him as I recall.

[maynard]

6. That was his dad....Cliven Buddy.

Such an embarrassment.

[brush]

2. Right here. He was the leader of the winger cabal...

who took over the wildlife refuge in Oregon a few years back, and is now a would-be winger pol.

I live in Vegas so I also know about his freeloader family grazing their cattle for free on federal land.

[Polly Hennessey]

3. I remember there was some kind of standoff

with federal agents on the Nevada/Utah border with the Bundy family over grazing rights.

4. This is him a sit-in protest. He chained himself to the chair.

[Farmer-Rick]

5. Why are the con artists so attracted to Christianity?

And why does anyone listen to them whine and lie and manipulate?

[SergeStorms]

10. The religious have already bought into....

the biggest con of all, so talking them into another con - using the first con to convince them they're "sincere" - is a natural progression.

They've already shown that they're not intellectually curious, so just keep on selling them snake oil. Hey, it worked perfectly for Donald Trump.

7. The Bundys' sniper sighting in on LEO badges.

8. And has been campaigning for Governor of Idaho.

[Warpy]

9. The only question is whether enough screwballs and crackpots have moved to Idaho

in recent years to elect his lying, sorry ass.

[SergeStorms]

11. I thought Idaho...

was their ancestral breeding ground?

I'm not putting down everyone from Idaho. We have a few fine DU members from Idaho, but for every Democrat in Idaho there must be 15 MAGAts, at least.

[Warpy]

12. It's very Mormon, or was for a long time

Cousins who lived there got into hot water because they didn't know who the hell Joseph Smith was on history tests. Other than that, they seemed to enjoy living there.
