Bundy is saying what MOST of the right doesn't want being heard: They don't like brown\black people

I'm not shocked or surprised or disappointed, I don't think many people are ... this is typical thinking for them being articulated into
a mic vs only amongst polite company

Conservatives don't like "others"

your take?

They don't just dislike anyone not like them, they actively fear the "other". It's probably part of our genetic makeup. We're all susceptible to that kind of non-thinking.

His kind are usually smarter than this though, keep this kind of thing contained to the more subtle dog whistling. The Newt Gingriches and Nathan Deals of America are going to run away from him now because he was too honest.

Make no mistake: when you hear dog whistling from the Newts and the Deals in the Republican Party? THIS is the kind of mindset they are calling to and whipping up, all in the name of and against "Tha Negruh."

GA. Good Ol' Boys and Girls have "Tha Negruh" dog whistling down to a science...no. No, hell no I am not shocked by Bundy's comments.
