Booze and guns don't mix, and that includes wine!

Winemakers stop supplying NRA club in latest of business withdrawals following Newtown reactions

A little dry, somewhat tasteless, lacking good judgment — with just a hint of cherry.

At least that’s how one wine-producer might describe the National Rifle Association’s wine club.

The NRA, already under fire for what was seen as its comprehensively insensitive response to the shooting tragedy at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Conn., is facing another round of criticism from suppliers of its wine club.

The NRA has actually hosted a popular wine club since 2007, but widespread knowledge of it only occurred recently, as the group’s name shot to headlines with increasing frequency due to a recent rash of deadly school shootings.

The NRA has a wine club. I knew they had a whine club to moan and groan about 'gun grabbers', but really, they offer wine at discounts to those who want to support their bullshit! blech... Guns and booze really don't mix.

Why would NRA even offer a wine from a Namby Pamby country with strict gun control? Brother Buzz Jan 2013 #1
