How can we as a nation move forward, when our leaders are siding with criminals instead of the law as interpreted by our courts.
It is okay if Sean Hannity on Fox News insist that Cliven Bundy is correct in refusing to obey multiple court orders, but when Republican governors take that very same position, then the criminals have won.
Texas Republican Governor Rick Perry is now convinced that taking up arms against government employees trying to enforce a court order, is the right thing to do.
In a recent interview on Fox News, Rick Perry said that Cliven Bundy were force into picking up arms against BLM workers because the Bureau of Land Management were acting outside the law. Yes, the same law that authorized them through a court order to take the steps they took when they began confiscating Bundy’s cattle.
Said Perry;
Well, here’s here’s the bigger issue…I have a problem with the federal government putting citizens in the position of having to feel like they have to use force to deal with their own government. That’s the bigger issue.

Interesting that on CBS this morning….he tried to steer AWAY from talking about Bundy’s predicaments, saying “yes, freedom. blah, blah,…but it is just a distraction. Need to focus on other things.”
Depends on his audience…and if Jeb Bush is going to run, too. (Perry is still on his “come to Texas to work. We have no taxes, no unions, no regulations and low pay” tour)
