Just how desperate is Wayne LaPierre and the NRA?

Desperate enough to dredge up old, discredited Clinton conspiracies.

NRA's LaPierre: 'Hillary Rodham Clinton Will Bring A Permanent Darkness Of Deceit And Despair'

Submitted by Brian Tashman on Friday, 4/10/2015 2:50 pm

NRA Executive Vice President Wayne LaPierre dedicated his speech today at the group’s annual meeting in Nashville, Tennessee, to attacking Hillary Clinton, at one point even resorting to listing a series of “gate” scandals attributed to her and her husband, including “Vince Foster Gate” and “White House Coffee Gate.”

“Hillary Clinton has more ‘gates’ than a South Texas cattle ranch,” LaPierre said. “And Americans know it.”

1. Apparently VERY desperate!

Just a horrible organization, IMO.

2. If La Pierre was honest he'd endorse Hillary right now

The NRA works its ass off to promote the interests of the gun companies...and thanks to GOP fearmongering and the NRA pushing people to buy tons of guns to defend themselves from the evil Democrats, the gun companies do better under D presidents than R.

3. Who cares what Wayne LaPierre thinks, or the NRA?

We don't have to read right wing crap to know it's crap. We understand that the right-wingers don't like Democrats. Let them talk to themselves, OK?

5. Unfortunately. If they share Wayne LaPierre's opinion,

they probably don't belong here.

8. So I've noticed.

Oh, well. We can accommodate a wide range of opinions, I suppose.

13. Read any of the gun-related forums for a while.

Most of them are quite open about it.

6. What was "White House Coffee Gate"?

I must have missed that one.

11. I was wondering that myself. It wasn't easy to find anything about it.

I assume he's talking about donors having coffee with Bill

12. I remember the Lincoln bedroom

but nothing about coffee.

9. oh FUCK HIM! AND FUCK THE NRA!

I'm so tired of those wannabe Klansmen/Prepper/Fundies I could vomit.

10. Wang LaPrick has more US blood on his hands than Al Qaeda. Fuck that guy.

14. Jeanne Devon and Zach Roberts from The Mudflats

are at the NRA convention as "media." Their reports on Facebook are hilarious.
