NRA Bitch-slaps the gun grabbers AGAIN!

[PredFan]

What is it now 4-0 NRA something like that?

That control-freak Bloomburg poured money into keeping those two politicians in Colorado in office but the NRA, and the people of Colorado sent them packing.

Thank God for the NRA, freedom, and the 2nd Amendment.

I think I read that the NRA was outspent 4 to 1.

Outspent by about 5-to-1, recall supporters cited a big anti-recall donation from New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg to make one of their main points — that Democrats controlling the state Legislature were more interested in listening to the White House and outside interests than their own constituents.

Oops, make that 5 to one.

Thanks Mayor Bloomberg, the Midwest will enjoy your wasted New York money.

Looks like the money I gave to the NRA has not gone to waste.

The grass roots NRA support in Co. is similar to the grass roots Tea Party effort Nation wide to fix the republican party. No wonder the radical left hates the NRA and the Tea Party.

 

[R.C. Christian]

The rat bastard Bloomberg. Typical liberal Jew from that shit hole called New York. He throws his money everywhere. What the punk ass little bitch doesn't know is that nobody but his cowardly constituents would give up their weapons even though we all know that this Jew hypocrite moves around with an armed detail of thugs that look like they should be in a gangster rap video.

The Sunlight Foundation analyzed election spending by the National Rifle Association, and determined that the group had a less than 1 percent return on its more than $11 million investment.

The study, based on FEC reporting, found that the NRA backed 27 winning candidates, but only 0.42 percent of the $11,787,523 it spent on the election went to those candidates. Instead, 78 percent of the money went to opposing Democrats. From the report:

- 0.81% of $10,955,688 spent in the general election and ending in the desired result.
- Supported 27 winning candidates ; 0.42% of money went to supporting winning candidates.
- Opposed 5 losing candidates; 0.39% of money went to opposing losing candidates.

Meh, they won where it counts, and won, and won, and won......

And now I'm sure that the left wing nutjobs will stand u8pon the dead bodies in the navy yard and try again to infringe upon our 2nd Amendment rights.

They just can't stop getting bitch-slapped.

Isn't opposing democrats the same as supporting republicans?

Fair enough, it isn't as clear as it could be.
Try this;

The Sunlight Foundation ran the numbers and found that after spending nearly $11 million in the general election, the National Rifle Association got a less than one percent return on its investment this cycle. That is, less than one percent of the money went toward the desired result.
The group supported 27 winning candidates, but most of its money was spent targeting winning Democrats (including over $7 million against President Obama) or bolstering losing Republicans (including $1.8 million supporting Mitt Romney and $500,000 backing Indiana Senate candidate Richard Mourdock).

So they spent 8.8 million dollars trying to defeat Obama...money well spent...

...half million backing one losing race for Mourdock...can't win 'em all...

...and 1.7 million in supporting 27 successful candidates......

I see no problem here.

What was your point exactly.

That they wasted money going after Obama on his record?

Sorry, but that's exactly what we give them the money to do...

Good on you if you're happy with that return on investment.

I'd have been happier if Obama had been defeated, but the blame for that doesn't lie with the NRA...they did the best they could with the candidate that the GOP gave them to work with.

So, yes, absolutely, I am happy with the way the money was spent.

I think everyone is.

Just looking at your numbers...2 losses and 27 wins, that fantastic in anyones book.

Poor little liberal gun grabbers. They are losing:

Bloomturd is a perfect illustration of the type of politicians the Founders are thinking about when they recognized the natural right of free people to be well armed.

I don't know how much money the NRA may have put into supporting this legal action, if any...but consider the anti-gun movement slapped again...and too add insult to injury...it happened in California...

California 10-day waiting period to buy gun violates the Second Amendment as to people who are known to the state to already own guns - The Washington Post

ideally, BIVENS styled tort actions and 42 USC 1983 actions should be successfully lodged against state legislators who pass such laws and if someone is murdered before they can successfully obtain a firearm, those who delayed the acquisition of a defensive weapon should be civilly liable to the estate of the deceased. Its time to really start seeking legal reprisals against scum bag assholes in office

Poor little liberal gun grabbers, it hasn't been a good year for them. The thing I like about the NRA most of all is that the money I give them isn't wasted. Can't say that for any other charity, imo. Here, the NRA was awarded a settlement from the City of Chicago:
