In another example of his keen political instincts, Idaho GOP Congressman Raul Labrador distanced himself from Sen. Rand Paul and others championing Nevada rancher Cliven Bundy. Labrador is a tea party favorite and friend of the Kentucky senator eying a 2016 Republican presidential run. At Labrador’s invitation, Paul will speak to the Idaho Republican convention in June. Bundy also has been celebrated by other politicians and conservative media, most notably Sean Hannity on Fox News. But Labrador told Ada County Republicans he has trouble lionizing Bundy because he’s ignoring the rule of law in failing to pay over $1 million in grazing fees to the U.S. Bureau of Land Management for running his cattle on public property since 1993/Dan Popkey, Idaho Statesman.

Question: Turn out the lights, the party's over. Tea-publicans Rand Paul and Raul Labrador are distancing themselves from Nevada rancher Cliven Bundy. Anyone out there STILL in this freeloader's corner?
