The rating from the NRA is a more accurate rating than the GOA. If the rating from the GOA for McCain was as low as low gets, how did clinton and obama score lower?
The reason the NRA rated McCain with the C+ was because he wanted all sellers at gunshows to have a Federal License and that action would not close down gunshows. The NRA disagrees with McCain on that issue.
McCain voted AGAINST the assault weapons ban. In thar respect, he’s a better candidate than GW is.
That still doesn't make him a "staunch supporter of the second amendment", which is all I was arguing against.
GOA took his anti first amendment activities into account. I could be wrong, but I though all three were in GOA's cellar.
Certainly wanting to ban private sales at gunshows, probably as prelude to baning them altogether, since is one is OK, then the other is too, doesn't make anyone a "staunch supporter".
Yeah, Hillery and Obama are worse, but that doesn't make McCain good or desirable.
Our choices are bad, worst and Armageddon. Armageddon is looking more likely every day. McCain is much too week a candidate to stand up to the MSM, who will turn on him like snakes. they are already are, despite his being their "favorite Republican" for all these years.
Face it, by their choice of the order of primary state voting order, the Republicans have jumped the shark. The only hope is that by picking a Racist Marxist, , or if they don't pick him, by the riots that follow the selection of Her Socialistic Highness the Dems have done the same.
"Interesting Times" coming.
Didn't say it wasn't, just that it didn't, especially for a Republican, make him a "staunch defender" of the second amendment. Quite the contrary. And it's probably equivalent to maybe a D or D- for a Democrat.
