You can be sure they are on the same page. Bundy is just unpolished, crude and raw. Unfamiliar with "Code speak" not as polished. Cliven Bundy is the Rosetta stone of the Republicans. Everything Bundy believes, you can bet Paul Ryan believes. This is the Republican base, people like Rove and Koch Brothers cultivated. Nurtured.
Makers and takers comments make a lot more sense now. Its okay to cut food stamps for the poor, if in your mind's eye, only black people are poor. Why raise the minimum wage, when we can force them to work for poverty wages, and like it...maybe we can get them to sing for it. As close as the GOOD OL Days, we're gonna get. Everyone knew their place, and the white male reigned supreme. Kochtopia!
Edit to toss this in:
I hope they continue to shove a camera into Bundy's face..ask him about his views on ACA and Immigration.

Not saying that all Teapublicans are like this.
Some of 'em find some other group not looking like the image they see in the mirror to hate on.
