Dingy Harry got endorsed by the NRA. He’ll let Tester vote for the RTC bill. Every vote counts back home.
Maybe if the National Rifle Association would change its name to the American Rifle Association they would be less of Special Interest Group. Harry Reid, UGGGGGH.
Exactly so. Single issue groups rarely see past the ends of their noses and the NRA is no exception.
The NRA is a watered down gun rights group. I will not support nor belong to the NRA...they lack consistency. We will eventually loose all of our gun rights if we have to depend on this PC group.
I fell out with the NRA a few years ago. Thank God for the GOA (Gun Owners of America). That’s my organization. They’ve already endorsed Rehberg.
The NRA enabled Reid to continue functioning as the azwipe that he is. Their opinion means jack to me.
What is really important, is how these 2 guys will vote on the next Supreme Court Justice nominee.
We still have individual gun rights............... but ONLY!!! by the barest of a 5-4 margin.
It all comes down to whether or not either one of these guys will vote for the obama nomination for the next judge.
NRA endorsement policy is penny wise and pound foolish.
Tester does what all Democrat politicians in Montana do. He will run as a conservative, then vote the way the Democrats tell him to vote. All this behind the cover of Lee Enterprises. He’s already assured of getting all 5,000 votes from the 1,000 registered Chinese voters on each reservation.
Last spring I heard the NRA spokesman (not Lapierre but his chief lieutenant) make the case for their ‘non-partisan’ endorsements on Tom Gresham’s Gun Talk Radio show.
Basically their position is that if they endorse the straight-line Republican ticket they lose any possible influence with the Dems.
The guy more or less hinted that they had supported Dingy Harry ‘cause they figured he was going to win anyway and sucking up to him was a better bet than p!ssing him off.
They took calls and the callers, like all of us, were majorly annoyed but the guy kept making his point that in some conservative Democrat states it was best to keep your options open.
The problem here is that Tester is a clown and a joke and the day after the election he’ll be voting with Harry Reid again.
Here we go again. This decision should be easy because the control of the Senate has national implications. But the NRA never fails to disappoint when liberty is at stake.
