Democrat Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid called the people who have been supporting Cliven Bundy and his family, "Domestic Terrorists" on Thursday.

Just one little problem - he apparently forgot that terrorists are people who attack civilians.

The only people coming close to "terrorism", were the Federal agents who descended on Bundy's ranch to try to take Bundy's cattle and keep him off public land - all without a single court order to be found.

But apparently to Harry Reid, "terrorists" are anybody who opposes a liberal administration.

It is said that England's King George III suffered from similar delusions, focused on American patriots and people who were doing nothing but asking the government to treat them fairly. Come to think of it, has anyone ever seen Harry Reid and King George III in the same room at the same time? How old is Harry Reid, anyway?

Don't play the lesser of two evil game. I vote with my conscience, not which 2 candidates from the 2 main parties that the media presents to us.

Has anyone here defended Harry for his statements ?

Surely Harry has supporters who believe he speaks the truth.

I agree with you. The normally lock-stepped dim crowd are biting their tongues. Seems like Harry's stench makes it impossible for the pill to reach the mouth.

The silence is deafening.

I laughed at this ... remembering Ronnie's comment about Thomas Jefferson.

You and I know they are one in the same and have all the money. Supreme court told em they could have as much as their buds could give em too. Third parties have no shot at all hell they barely let half the guys who run even participate in debates and we know why that is too. Only thing to do...........is......well I can't say it or I will be tagged by they NSA so I will digress.

Reid's at best senile and at worse, a criminal. His opinions and statements mean nothing.

Problem is he is a man of great power. Probably equal or more than the President.

I wonder WTF his son is doing in Nevada with a public opinion ? He sure is a goofy looking guy.

Like oh say.....Bundy's neighbors whom he threatened with a range war? Like those folks?

Or how about the "militia" who brought their children with? Those kids maybe?

I don't think that objection holds water. Heres the one that does:
Terrorists have to actually use force for their objectives. Thats the difference between a terrorist and a person exercising their rights. Not just the threat of force.
