Some of these guy=s never quit. They just can’t stop shooting their mouths off. And now that we have social media, they can shoot their mouths off no matter where they are. Give them a droid or an iPhone and they’ll tell the whole world what they want everyone to hear.

In this case I’m talking about Ammon Bundy, whose father, Cliven ‘let me tell you about your Negro’ is the only guy I know who actually embarrassed Sean Hannity to the point that Hannity had to cut poor Cliven off his show. And if you don’t understand that Bundy was the alt-right image template for Donald Trump, you haven’t been paying attention to politics for the last eight years.

Actually, Bundy wasn’t the first alt-right figure to challenge the so-called extremist and nasty strategy of the Feds by pointing out how the government was screwing the ‘little guy.’ Remember ‘Joe da Plumber?’ Otherwise known as Samuel Joseph Wurzelbacher, this guy verbally ambushed Barack at a 2008 campaign stop in Ohio with a long harangue about how Barack’s tax policy would hurt small business, even though Barack hadn’t actually out a tax policy.

Wurzelbacher went on to appear at a couple of McCain-Palin rallies and not surprisingly told the crowds that Obama’s policies were moving the country towards socialism. He then got a gig doing infomercials…
