Full disclosure: I’m a Life Member of the NRA. Full(er) disclosure: that could change, if the NRA keeps doing incredibly stupid things. Case in point, the idea that they might well endorse Harry Reid’s re-election campaign for the U.S. Senate in Nevada. Yep. That’s right. On the heels of their bailing on opposition to a bill that would effectively muzzle political dissent (except for Unions, AARP, and the NRA) simply because “it doesn’t affect them,” now comes word that Really Soon Now, the NRA plans to endorse Harry the Horse’s Ass for another term in the U.S. Senate, and presumably as Senate Majority Leader (unless the GOP retakes the Senate in November).
Pause with me for a nanosecond whilst we consider how screwed up this really is.
