The Double Down begins, Dana Loesch DEFENDS Bundy's statements...

[MohRokTah]

I hope no one is surprised that an old man rancher isn't media trained to express himself perfectly. He seems to be decrying what big government has done to the black family -- which big government has negatively affected not just the black family, but all families regardless of ethnicity -- so perhaps he included that in his remarks against big government? I'm just trying to figure out how he even got to the point of discussing it and yes, it's justified to have a healthy suspicion of the New York Times.

1. Too late Dana

3. She's going to look awfully stupid if Hannity doesn't do likewise.

She really walked out on a limb with this one. My hope is the Goobers who supported him aren't like Rand Paul but instead take the Dana Loesch route.

2. He should have said it the way Paul Ryan said it!!!

Ryan understands that you use coded language so that if confronted, you can claim that you in no way intended your statement to have a racial component.

From there, you can go on to call those who challenged you, racists.

4. In other words, he hates what's become of black families since the 60s...

That being the 1860s.

5. Typical, at least Bundy is honest... the rest of them a cowards and dont' say what they really think

[JaneyVee]

6. Yes, blame his lack of media training.

7. So the devious New York Times is at it again, tricking innocent people into making racist statements

That MUST be what happened.

8. Thus disregarding the First Rule of Holes

If you're in one, stop digging.

If you ARE one, shut the fuck up.

9. a media-trained racist would've used the term african-american rather than negro
