Senator slips up: ‘You’re not going to disenfranchise the NRA overnight’
Biz Pac ^ | 4/16/13 | Joe Saunders

It’s not often that the confiscation crowd is nakedly honest, but when they think they’re just preaching to the choir, they might forget the heathens are listening, too.

That was the case in Sunday’s New York Times column by Maureen Dowd when Connecticut Sen. Chris Murphy blurted out the real goal of the gun grabbers: Getting weapons out of your hands means getting the vote out of your hands, too.

“You’re not going to disenfranchise the NRA overnight,” Murphy told Dowd.

“Disenfranchise.” This isn’t the usual, misty-eyed “if it will save one life” claptrap; and the speaker isn’t some unshaven Occupier who doesn’t know where his next bath is coming from.

An elected United States senator wants to deprive a substantial part of our citizenry of the right to vote. Substitute any other group in this country for “NRA” in that sentence and try to imagine the Times – or any other American newspaper – quoting it approvingly.

Thank you for that lovely image of the lovely Catherine Zeta-Jones.

In the midst of societal madness, I am thus reassured of the beauty of G-d’s creation. It restoreth my spirit.

Get in your place. Obama's civilian thug force is there to see that the opposition vote is disenfranchised.

She’s 43 now, so I’m guessing about 33. That’s around the peak in her career.

My guess would have been rather younger than 33.

Still, dowdy is as Dowdy does.

Behind every pretty face is a man paying a LOT of money. And glad he's rid of the problem. ;)

“Disenfranchise.”>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

The Declaration of Indepence was the result of the last group of politicians who tried to disenfranchise the American People.

A$$hats like Senator Chris Murphy need to be met by patriots from the NRA, and taught a lesson from history.

Now if she was shooting it would be better.

Where there are golf courses there should be shootig ranges.
