She wasn't in office in time for TARP or the first round of automaker bailouts, but since then she's voted for every serving of pork. Then, just this summer, she ran an ad saying “Bailouts really offend me” and “Bailout is just another word for cop-out, and here in Colorado that’s not how we do business”<br /><br />Then she whined about receiving death threats after she voted for Obamacare.<br /><br />She's not just a liberal, she's a lightweight liberal - an airhead. She's not even a good liar, which is a prerequisite. And dang right, she's no friend of the 2nd, or any other aspect of individual liberty.<br /><br />I didn't leave the NRA - the NRA left me.

For most of us here, at this point, I think that if a <b><i>ROLL</i></b> was not available, the nra's apps and other junk-mail would fill the <b><i>ROLE</i></b> of TP quite well!<br /><br />As to the OP, what did we expect? Is anyone surprised?<br /><br />I went to a gun-show last weekend and **TRIED** to have a civil conversation with their on-site recruiter.<br /><br />I tried being very respectful - making clear that what I had to say was not meant to be an attack on the NRA, was CERTAINLY not intended for him personally, and that I was telling him this in the hope that he'd pass it up the line.<br /><br />I went on to explain - in some detail - why I haven't renewed my membership, why I changed my "life member" plans, and so on.<br /><br />I explained in detail:<br />* the "DISCLOSE-act" garbage, and how their "deal" also exempted SEIU and a number of other Enemies.<br />* their even THINKING of endorsing Reid, then their cowardly "we're not endorsing ANYONE" abdication of responsibility instead of doing the right thing and endorsing the clear 2A winner.<br />* Their myriad other examples of Cowardice in the face of the enemy, and of taking the expedient route instead of fighting for right.<br />* Their attempts to undercut Heller until they realized he was going to win - then jumping on the bandwagon and actually trying to usurp the case -- acting like it was all their idea from the beginning.<br />* etc.<br /><br />He had no response except "they do what the members want them to do" - to which I just laughed incredulously, and the fact that "they're the biggest group and thus they have more 'pull' - to which I responded that (if anything) this rightly SHOULD be an even stronger mandate for their using the power we members have given them to fight for our rights instead of constantly compromising to our detriment.<br /><br />He quoted essentially the same BS as Anon-07:18 hers, then when that failed to sway me, seemed to develop quite an attitude. When others began stopping and "Amen"-ing me, he REALLY began to steam. When I excused myself - repeating my request that he pass it up the line - he even refused my proffered handshake - a fact which wasn't missed by the dozen-or-more who'd been watching...<br /><br />My attitude at this point is - quite simply - "FEAFEFH."<br /><br />DDDedicated_Dadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06375339835638311982noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7575061201749703300.post-66656396320118378502010-09-26T21:39:46.333-05:002010-09-26T21:39:46.333-05:00Anon 7:18, your sycophantic screed is factually in...Anon 7:18, your sycophantic screed is factually incorrect.<br /><br />Non-NRA, pro-self defense rights activists have done more in the last ten years than the NRA in its entire history.Pat H.https://www.blogger.com/profile/18297461069687246149noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7575061201749703300.post-20892943119143501902010-09-26T19:59:16.935-05:002010-09-26T19:59:16.935-05:00That hot dog makes me wonder.
