I got a fundraising call from the NRA a few days ago, but I did what I always try to do. I stopped the guy before he could give me his pitch (which is always boring or confusing anyway), and said I'm in for a hundred bucks, and to bill the same card that they used the last time they asked. In this case, they didn't have those records, so I told him to send me a paper bill (no way am I going to give my credit card out over the phone), and I'd pay. Got the invoice today. Wrote the check, and have licked the stamp. Gonna drop it in the mail on the way to the grocery store.

Is the NRA perfect? No. But I know who my friends are, and we live in dangerous times. When I can, I support them. I let 'em know when I think they've started to go off the beam, but you can't throw the baby out with the bathwater.
