Finally something truly cheering on Facebook, Harry Reid's Facebook page. Comments are full, too full they expand so hidden treasures in there tucked away easily overlooked. A cheerful read indeed. Opening and clicking, amusing pictures, heartening links all the way down, delightful uplifting commentary to all Harry's entries.
The most extraordinary case of profound deafness I've ever seen. Harry Reid's posts followed by comments are two entirely separate conversations. Harry against everybody. He presumes to lead.

Reid, the early years
This land is my land, this land is my land.
From Humboldt county to Ruby Valley
From Black Rock Desert to southern border
From Pyramid Lake on up to Washoe
And down in Reno where everyone knows
This land was made for mostly me….
When I'm walking the sun is shining
and all around me, everything that I see
Every mineral, and every last tree
All the water, and all the elements
All the gambling and all the industry
All State services and taxabilites
Every animal, anything I please
This land is made for mostly me.

BLM closes shop in Clark county Nevada.
For now.
BLM backing down, says the Sheriff from creating an unsightly war-like scene, rallying opposition from all corners out in the open, and that is the part that cheers my heart -- citizens spending their own money using their own resources to converge and take visible action. But, surely there will be a way to squeeze out the rancher later quietly without creating such a fuss so damaging to public relations.
The county is shown unwilling to challenge Federal grab, Nevada is shown unwilling to back its citizens in the face of Federal land grab and manipulations. The thing is, the land-owning family is more steady than Local and State and Federal governments throughout. From territory to state, through federal government changing its own rules, snapping the rugs, this way and that, all around the landowner family, surrounding the family with its unsteadiness through time and through generations, switching arrangements as they go and laws and Department composition allowing for corruption in full bloom today, while the family stays steady doing what ranchers do. And even as government Departments grab the rancher's land and herd up his cattle they are elsewhere measuring his stock farts and dreaming up ways to tax him further, resulting in ranching altogether more difficult were it not for steady families.
Well played, Cliven Bundy, well played.
Hey! I just now thought of something. Wanna see something? This is a package aged bone-in rib-eye steak sitting in the refrigerator, mustn't freeze a thing like this...
...so no slouch of a steak and you can expect it to be expensive, up to pay a hundred bucks in a restaurant, but not this expensive raw. It's only a LB, not a side. But I heard the guy say "aged beef" and that made me not care because it saves me a trip to Oliver's. I bought it anyway. But this kind of brutal government dictatorial and frankly unsteady activity, bearing down on ranchers militaristically like this, roping off "free speech zones" is effrontry to even faint-blooded Americans and measuring cow farts and deciding for global warming concerns or for vegetarian concerns or for whatever concern our most fiercely compulsive activists drawn to government dream up for us are the reasons why this beef is this expensive.
That and the dollar jacked with simultaneously.
I started off differently. Earlier I was loading 6 gallons of milk into a trolly when a bald man rolled up. This was two days ago. It seemed I am in his way and I do have gallons spread out on the floor in front of the cooler. "Would you like a gallon of milk?" I offered cheerfully.

"Are you really going to drink all that?Teutonic accent. Mess with him. "Yes." His eyes visibly widened. "I drink a gallon a day." He honestly had nothing to say to that obsenity. The corners of his mouth went downward. "But I'm trying to cut back to half a gallon." His face tightened. "In chocolate form."
"Oh."His face relaxed and he rolled off. I lied. Didn't mention freezing it, but faking was fun.

Harry Reid
Give it three seconds.
I know I am but what are you?
No wait, I meant to say, I know you are but what am I?
Oh man, I should'a said.
Nobody was obsessed at all, not one single bit, until your Party went from the droning single line message that all drones drone at once, all across the land, the exact same wording all at once, and you have no idea how irritating this is, every drone droning the precise phrase, "Our healthcare system is broken and must be fixed" because that phrase cannot be improved by any single unimaginative drone, droning out all conversation, all of it, and the situation cannot be improved either by any careful measure, no cautious steps are acceptable so those are droned out, "Republicans have no ideas for fixing our healthcare system at all" I cannot recall how many times I've read that in comments, because you actually honestly cannot hear anything like "check reckless malpractice suits, and make policies transportable across states to name only two Republican suggestions unheard by drones, to come from that to your Party busting your anxious moves on ushering socialized healthcare, federalizing healthcare, the Party's aim all along, that you even faced the opposition you caused, and knew you would cause. And don't give me this sterling crap about providing 30 million Americans with health care insurance, you know, I know, everybody knows this bill does no such thing. Your craptastic bill is taller than I am, and if you think of one millisecond that is acceptable then you are quite mad. Obsessed, I must say. The downs check the acrosses. Busting your emotional moves on 2nd amendment constitutional rights, (reasonable, yes, you have an answer for every little nibble), Buying out ammo, stockpiling all government Departments. Fast and Furious. Early issuing terrorism warnings about right-wing groups. And now great effort to prove you don't have resources to bar citizens from their own parks, fitting the pattern of using Public resources for Party ends, These citizens wanted to be left alone to their own thing, their homes their families are their interest, they say so, politics is not their interest, not their desire, but no, they would not be left in their comfort zone, that is stated outright, that with this administration you will not be left alone as democratic republics are intended. We do see you strongly prefer disruption at all points. Do you really think all those tea partiers types are as excited about politics as you and your drones? Believe me, they are not. The obsession is yours. Observe: strange sinister crackpot Senator who gets government process backwards, especially regarding committee bills and budgets, your obsession is checked.
But what came out instead was, "Oh yeah?"
