-—The NRA backed Harry Reid
Was Reid anti-gun? I don’t think so.
http://www.ontheissues.org/Domestic/Harry_Reid_Gun_Control.htm
Voted YES on prohibiting lawsuits against gun manufacturers.
Voted YES on prohibiting foreign & UN aid that restricts US gun ownership.
Voted NO on more penalties for gun & drug violations.
Other measures were anti-gun..
So he got a ‘B’ from the NRA. Reid was a totally corrupt slimeball but he reflected his constituent’s wishes and was not consistently against the right to bear arms. That’s why the NRA supported him. Which is what I expect from a single issue organization.
Do you ever post anything positive about anybody?
Are you serious? You think Harry Reid wasn’t manipulating his votes? You think Harry is a defender of the 2A?
And you are going to DEFEND him?
Perhaps you see why I have a very negative view. Because it reflects the reality of the situation.
—thanks for a factal post—and the NRA did not support Reid in has last election, when he had began to be a turncoat-—
Good post, but, as I recall, the NRA initially endorsed Dingy Harry but received so much grief from members threatening to drop their NRA membership that the NRA withdrew their endorsement, and made no commitment to either Dingy or his opponent.
