LOL. That's an insult to turtles!

It's good news. But it's not the end of the story. The Feds don't like to back down -- they lose face that way. And they don't like to lose face.

Exactly my sentiments. Couldn't post from my mobile for some reason.

I am not sure Bundy has "won" and I am pretty sure this isn't over.

Expect some very vindictive bureaucrats to wait for Bundy's supporters to disperse. And then look for a Waco-style raid on the Bundy Ranch.

It may take a week or 6 months but remember that "Hell hath no fury like a bureaucrat scorned!"

They won't use the "shock and awe" approach next time either.

They will wear him down in the courts and then wait for their opportunity to seize him.

Exactly right. Dingy Harry will not be denied.

They would hound Bundy to bankruptcy because they have the unlimited funds of the Feds to back them.

WarEagle82 nailed it - they'll wait until the heat is off before seizing the Bundy Ranch for the benefit of Dingy Harry's kids.

I'm surprised that the Feds are backing down. I wonder if Reid wants to take the adverse publicity off him for a while? It's opening a can of worms for him - and he's all worms. The Feds may have met their match with Bundy. He's seems tough as nails.

No, he's won a stay of execution. Bundy already lost in court, and will lose again, but that makes it a matter of the law and sheriff's deputy or two. The official who authorizes the tens of thousands of dollars to be spent on flying/driving in, feeding and housing all those agents in order to rustle a couple hundred head of cattle needs to be exposed, shamed, and sent to Iran for training on how to apply power in a subtle, successful manner.
Kudos to the Special Agents and LEO from the government who were set up to spark a Ruby Ridge incident in order to justify even worse actions. They didn't pull the trigger when they could have, and have gotten away with it.

So the Bureau of Land Mangagement is trying to claim they were collecting this $1 million for the American People? You know know whar? I'm good, just write it off, man.

Besides, the IRS would just take my share to pay for the time Great Grandpa double-dipped at the soup kitchen during the Depression...at least that's their story.

Ann althouse wonders if the ranch defenders had any amusing campfire and bonding songs. We've had ours since the War of 1812 lady...

Why is this good news?

Excellent news. This has got to stop. When a man owes you money you put him in collections, you don't surround his house with snipers. Still, I'd be careful missing even so much as one payment of any type now.

Interesting. So it's all right to steal from hard-working taxpayers if you're a conservative Republican cattle rancher, eh?

Took time out of your Sunday just to troll through here?
Loser.

Note how the number of comments exceeds the number of upvotes on the troll.

Are you a commander or a sergeant? You seeem a little confused. I'd say you are commandante Zero.

I am formally both.
You are currently a troll.

Do you mean,formerly? Your English skills are not so good,huh

Yeah - formerly-thanks for catching that.
You how that dang auto-complete is.
So you're a troll and internet grammar cop... impressive.

zzzzzzzz.....

According to the governor of Nevada, the Bundy's paid their required fees. This was an attempted land grab.

Move to Venezuela, you commie whore.

Make her, dummy.

You don't know how money in ranching works, do you? You don't even know how Bundy allegedly came to owe $1 million in unpaid fees. You probably believe Pigford is social justice, too.

Lest we forget, Robert Mugabe is notorious for stealing farms which have been in the same family for eons to give to his supporters. Reid's pulling stuff from the Zimbabwe playbook.
