NRA Hijinks at the ACU Klavern
A hilarious report on doings at right wing nut central from Wonkette...

"Hey, who wouldn't want to go to the black-tie gala of the nation's oldest modern conservative organization? It's like a Young Americans for Freedom reunion! They killed HillaryCare! Bob Novak will be there! And did we mention the President is speaking? Serious stroking of base action. How could we say no?...
9:20PM NRA Executive Vice President Wayne LaPierre (pictured...) gives a speech and says -- could not make this up -- that it's NRA tradition to "honor" those who have served the cause of Second Amendment rights by giving them a firearm. (Curious: What is the message that sends? We think people may try to kill you? Kill yourself? You look like you need a surrogate penis?) Tonight, they want to present a firearm to ACU prez David Keene. . . but there's a ban on handguns in the District. So they give him a big photo of one. Female NRA exec holds up pic over her head and walks around the stage like Vanna White. This is hysterical. And the gun? It's a Charleton Heston "Peacemaker" replica. OMG. I'm dying. They're going to give him the real one in Virigina, "where people care about the Second Amendment." Yes! "

By the way, wonkette's tag for this jpg of her and Wayne is is_that_a_gun_in_your_pocket...

The OTHER Roger Ailes notes about giving Keene the picture: "This is good news, because it means David Keene Jnr. will only be able to throw wadded up photographs at other motorists, instead of trying to blow their heads off, as he did during his last drive-by temper tantrum. "

4. You're the only one here who seems to care about what the NRA is doing.

5. I'm the one who gets a big laugh out of it
But there sure seem to be a bunch of "pro-gun democrats" who piss and moan everytime anybody mentions what a shitty little knot of bigoted fuckwits they are. It's mighty funny to see, too.
