Yet another lie told by the lying media and their masters.
"To avoid bloodshed, the BLM stood by and allowed demonstrators to turn loose the cattle, but didn't back down from claims that Bundy also owed the federal government $1.1 million. He still hasn't paid.
"Bundy told The Oregonian Thursday he doesn't owe anything. And one more thing: "I've never been billed."
"The BLM's public pronouncement about the debt led to head scratching among Oregon cattle ranchers, puzzled how one rancher could rack up and then evade such a debt. The BLM, which manages about one-fourth of Oregon's acreage, diligently collects fees from ranchers around the state. The total outstanding debt from Oregon ranchers in April was $18,759.
"BLM officials, however, have repeatedly refused to document the basis for their $1.1 million claim and initially wouldn't say a word about its attempts to collect the debt. The agency's stature earned another black eye last week from the Nevada sheriff who initially agreed to help BLM gather up Bundy's cattle."
BLM won't back up claim rancher Cliven Bundy owes $1 million
