VICTOR DAVIS HANSON: Cliven Bundy and the Rural Way. “To paraphrase the ancients, sometimes we’d rather be wrong with Cliven Bundy than right with Harry Reid.”

Plus: “So we are not threatened by the likes of Cliven Bundy. Instead, the scary lawlessness extends to the bureaucracy itself. . . . The point is Mr. Bundy is no Rahm Emanuel, Al Gore, or Jay Carney. He is no Jay-Z or Sean Penn. He is a world away from the Kardashians and the BMW meets Mercedes crowd of the California coastal corridor or the psychodramas of brats at Dartmouth. Bundy does not have the white privilege that those who have it — mostly liberal, wealthy, and seeking an apartheid existence — damn in others.”
