What I said remains a fact. Romney has said he would repeal CFR .
The two issues do go hand in hand , like it or not .
I’ve never said, nor implied, that it negates anything that Romney has or hasn’t done in the past . Was the NRA wrong in endorsing the legislation that Romney signed ?

CFR repeal is an important issue to gun owners and I have yet to hear if Thompson would repeal CFR . He has acknowledged that it was a bad bill, would he repeal it ?

I’m NOT satisfied with Romney’s answer regarding renewal of AWB . I also have not seen a definative answer stating Thomspon’s position on renewal of AWB .
It’s a far different issue than skeet shooting at a charity event .

Just because the NRA endorses something does not make it right. The NRA often supports things I would not and fails to oppose things I would. The latest example is HR 2640 which was sponsored by Carolyn McCarthy (D-NY). I honestly do not know what these people are thinking sometimes. I am a life member but I think they were wrong on this one and cannot understand why they did not oppose it. Gun Owners of America strongly opposes this bill. The NRA-ILA sent me an email on 6/15 telling me it was a good thing. I agree with GOA on this and wish the NRA would not work with nuts like McCarthy on anything. The point is that just because the NRA supports something, that is not an automatic endorsement of it for me because they have dome some very stupid stuff in the past.
