White House spokesman Ari Fleischer said yesterday the president "continues to believe" that the gun ban was "reasonable" and should remain law. But Mr. LaPierre of the NRA said reports of the issue causing a rift between the president and one of his most loyal political allies have been overblown. "I'm sure that the anti-firearms senators and congressmen and their allies in the national media would love to make this about President Bush and the NRA," Mr. LaPierre said. "But the truth is, it's going to be resolved in the Congress. "We're going to try to make sure that they never get this phony bill passed into law again," he said.

Even the new president of the NRA says this is a tempest in a teapot, egged on by extremist. The NRA is not the LEAST bit worried about this "bill."
Do you have a direct quote and a source for these supposed comments by the new NRA president?

I saw him on one of the cable shows the other day, and honestly, I cannot remember which one.
But I know that some others have heard the same thing on NPR.
