Our Speaker of the House, has an A+ rating from the NRA. The new Dem chair of the judiciary committee also has a A rating.

Do you agree they are a right wing organization who mainly support the GOP agenda?

That is why, for example, they endorsed 58 House Dems in 2010

they actively worked against Obama?

Instead of working with gun owners to pass legislation that had wide support, he decided to recreate 1992 and let Feinstein trot out her AWB for the umpteenth time. He poked all gun owners in the eye and wonders why the NRA opposes him.

If I were him I'd be worried if they didn't.

He supports the individual right to own guns for example. But for some reason he felt he had to defer to Feinstein, knowing full well it would make any legislation impossible.

he thought that he could land a major political defeat on the NRA and made no attempt to work with the NRA. He completely misread the situation and couldn't even get the support of the Dem led Senate. So not only did he strengthen the NRA, but ensured they would never trust him.

But please, don't let facts get in the way of your passionate defense of an organization that invites Ted Nugent and Sarah Palin to be their keynote speakers.

propagated regarding Obama and guns?

their attacks are shameful.

Unfortunately, he played straight into their hands when he botched the post Sandy Hook effort to pass gun control legislation.

we are talking about a pro-union, pro-gay marriage Dem politician from a blue state.

Do you want a list of articles fr m their magazine? Name a democratic Keynote speaker at their national convention! According to you there are 58 people they could have speak.
And the last 10 have all been right wing idiots. To me anyway, maybe you would support them.
You are honestly just sounding clueless or biased. I am sure if I posted right wing stories straight from their monthly magazine you would defend them. And Ted Nugent is on their board of directors. But a couple of PMs has filled me in on most of this.

they stay true to their word.

I don't care what they do at their convention. If they support pro-gun Dems then I am happy with that.

be on this board and say that? The PMs and links explained your deal. But here are some more shit you do not care about.....

"I don't care what they do at their convention.", brilliant!

As long as they support gun rights.

The GOP is anti-choice, anti- marriage equality, anti-union. I care a lot about what they say.

I know you refuse to accept that Dems can be pro-gun but this attack is weak even by your standards.

that a dem can be perfect except for guns and you 100% support the NRA campaigning against the great dem? Spending $1000s of dollars against them?

Do you see how stupid that logic is?

You said "I don't care what they do at their convention. If they support pro-gun Dems then I am happy with that."

So when they have Nugent speak and Palin speak and RIP Obama unfairly and RIP democrats over hurricane sandy coverage and RIP GREAT Democrats over ONE topic, you are "happy" with that?

How the fuck are you still posting here?

I would always support Dems. I do not support the NRA attacking Dems.

Can you still see your monitor through the spittle? You are trying too hard here.

I am still posting here because I am pro-choice, pro- marriage equality, pro-union, pro-equal rights. I am a life long Democrat that is active in political campaigns. Take your purity test somewhere else.

"I do not support the NRA attacking Dems. "

a few posts after you said about the NRA......

""I don't care what they do at their convention. If they support pro-gun Dems then I am happy with that."

It will be there to reference for future posts!

Here is what Wayne said at the convention that you do not care about......

If we were to meet over a beer, you would discover that we see eye to eye on most things other than guns. I understand the frustration of the anti- gun crowd but you are not going to get your purity purge of pro-gun Dems so perhaps it is time to move on to more important things.

I understand the frustration of the anti- gun crowd..."

And the pro-science crowd too-- as the NRA successfully lobbied Congress to cut the CDC's budget the exact amount it had allocated to gun violence research... and continues to do so. However, as stated, perhaps it's time to move on to things more important than research...

whatever gave you the impression I opposed it?.

I support all of President Obama's gun control initiatives with two exceptions: an AWB and registration.

For the truth about the right-wing gun lobby.

It could be a Republican or Democrat. Either one gets their endorsement if they are impressed with their gun agenda.

He, or an aid of his, wrote a very interesting article in Salon about that. http://www.salon.com/2013/12/20/nras_partisan_hackery_exposed_the_unbelievable_inside_story_of_its_war_on_one_democrat/

My rep Sander Levin F

My State senator Steve Beida was rated a C ... I really need to have more contact with that man

And...?

Anyway, what are those names we've heard so much about? C'mon, give!

right-wingers...

Who said they weren't political?

During election cycles they advocate, support the most pro 2nd amendment politician running.
For the longest time they were big Harry Reid supporters in fact Wayne LaPierre and Reid
were very good friends

The NRA is a right-wing organization funded by the Koch Brothers, and spends millions of dollars running anti-Democratic messages all year long. They campaign for Republicans in all states, and even in some city and county elections.

Harry Reid saw the light and severed ties with the NRA/ALEC/Koch Brothers right-wing gun lobby:

and most of the Republicans there would be considered "on the fringe"
