[quote:Anonymous Coward 26952109:MV8yMTc4ODIxXzM2ODUxNDM3X0M5N0YyOUE2] We as a citizenship need to call out the Democrats on this issue, it is clearly a propaganda campaign to take more of our rights. If you have or don't have guns by damn you need to be standing up to these lying commies. This includes the news media.. that also includes FOX. Lastnight on Geraldo he was interviewing Joe the plumber .. behind Joe was a AR 15 mounted on the wall behind his head. Here comes the propaganda CRAP.. Geraldo asked Joe.. "how do you feel owning that gun considering Lanza used it" to kill so many ... GERALDO did one of two things purposely misled the audience OR.. did not do his homework.. NO AR15 was used.. even NBC reported that four hand guns were used.. the bullets found in the victims were from a Glock pistol and a Sig.. The kid tried to buy an AR15 two weeks prior but the laws were so strick he was unable to purchase the gun. WE ARE BEING SET UP.. If you do or do not use guns you need to wake up this is an attempt by the progressives to control us to take more libertys from us. These people have been obsessed by these gun issue, they are lying when they say Fienstiens bill is dead.. its detouring into another will where it will be hidden unless people pay close attention. The media the progressives have won so many issues only because the population is ignorant to whats going on. This issue we must stop them in their tracks! If not for guns owners for our nations heros who died to give us freedoms the left wants to take away!! [/quote]
Original Message
After a series of missteps that gave President Obama the early advantage in this year's gun-violence debate, the National Rifle Association (NRA) has struck back.
The powerful gun lobbying group had stumbled in the immediate wake of December's Newtown, Conn., grade-school massacre, launching a blistering attack on opponents that alienated even some NRA supporters and upped the odds of Obama moving tougher gun laws through Congress.
But three months later, the NRA has regained its footing, rallying gun owners and lawmakers against new gun controls in a fierce lobbying effort that appears to be paying dividends on Capitol Hill.
Indeed, over the last 100 days, Democrats have grown more divided over Obama's proposed reforms.
