3. Revisionist history trundles on...
Edited on Sun Mar-07-04 09:12 AM by MrBenchley
The RKBA crowd was trrying to spin the NRA's thrashing into a "victory" here, and now right wing idiots are trying to do so on op-ed pages.

Funny....the only websites I can find pretending guns were a decisive factor in Al Gore's "defeat" (winning by 500,000 votes) are by the same right wing asswipes who also call Donna Brazile racist.

"The NRA, as much as Democrats hate to admit it, is a consumer-voter organization."
Yeah, and the "get away with murder" bill protected consumers in NO conceivable manner. It protected only a corrupt industry.

"It was designed solely to stop a flood of lawsuits blaming gun makers when armed criminals commit crimes. Feinstein's mischaracterization notwithstanding, Democrats were prepared to vote for the bill in large numbers."
Yeah....what a dirty trick that the NRA stopped them from doing so. (snicker)

By the way, roe...what makes this a liberal paper?
