Is NRA changing stance on campaign finance exemption deal?
Submitted by: Bruce W. Krafft

Post Comments | Read Comments

 
"On Tuesday, we talked about an exemption being carved out for NRA on a campaign finance bill. This has kicked over a hornet's nest in the 'pro-gun' community between NRA defenders and gun owners who oppose special privileges that will not be afforded to all political groups."

"I just received the following first-hand report on my WarOnGuns blog that may (or may not) indicate an NRA reversal:" ...

"I'm looking over the editorials castigating gun owners and I'm seeing a trend for some time. I've put this off long enough."

"Gun ownership and the second amendment are two safeguards of the public interest. Since the nation is its people, an armed citizenry is in the national interest. Governments cannot do half the job the people do in fighting crime as one threat to our wealth and independence. The boondoggle that is gun control is the exquisite example of how silly some Americans can be in presuming that absentee bureaucrats can do a lot of things better than the citizen can. To my way of thinking, maybe this is best for them, but not for tens of millions of others." ...

"'I'm not a cop hater.'"

"Carlos Miller felt the need to tell this to me after we'd spent nearly 20 minutes talking about his blog's role as an internet refuge for those who have been blighted by the law and have the video evidence to prove it. Naturally, as someone who has become semi-famous for exonerating American citizens from bogus charges — charges often brought about through deliberate abuse perpetrated by law enforcement officers — Miller gets regularly peppered with hundreds of emails from all walks of life ..."

"The Second Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, securing 'the right of the people to keep and bear arms," is under fire, and now WND is providing you with frontline intel on the battle over gun rights in America."

"Beginning today and continuing weekly each Friday on the WND Diversions page, look for a new column from second-generation gun-rights activist Jeff Knox called 'The Knox Gun-Rights Report.'"

"'We're thrilled to have the opportunity to share our information with WND readers,' Knox said. "The gun-rights issue is much more than just hunting or target-shooting – or even self-defense. Gun rights are an important part of our fundamental human rights, and the right to arms is the final bulwark against tyranny." ...

"As Chicago awaits a U.S. Supreme Court ruling this month that could overturn its 28-year-old handgun ban, City Hall is considering a host of countermeasures that might set off another round of legal fights with gun advocates."

"In an interview with the Tribune, Mayor Richard Daley acknowledged an uphill battle against the gun industry, which he described as the most powerful lobby in the United States. Even so, he vowed that in the event residents are allowed to have handguns at home, the city would take steps to ensure that officials can account for the weapons." ...

"Unfortunately, critics of our position have misstated or misunderstood the facts."

Democrats' NRA Ploy May Kill Shady 'Disclose Act'

"The U.S. Supreme Court's decision in the now famous Citizens United v. FEC restored the ability of corporations to exercise their rights to political speech under the First Amendment. Congressional Democrats--who didn't very much like the decision--have responded to it with the Disclose Act, legislation that, as written, not only would overturn the court's ruling but would greatly expand the range and scope of the prohibitions on free speech that existed before the case was decided. But political maneuvering by the Democrats intended to circumvent the opposition of the National Rifle Association (NRA) and ensure the bill's passage may end up killing it." ...

"Disappointment does not come from opponents; it comes from friends."

"Earlier this week, the NRA issued a statement when it was becoming known that Democrats had cut a deal exempting the NRA from coverage under the DISCLOSE Act, which is the Nancy Pelosi-Chuck Schumer response to the Citizens United First Amendment decision by the Supreme Court that targets free speech."

"The last couple of times I've renewed my membership to the National Rifle Association, I did it for five-year stints, and when it comes due next year I probably will renew again."

"Why? I'm a member of the NRA because it has represented me and lobbied for me in Washington, D.C., and Sacramento. For so many of us, the NRA represents more than a protector of the Second Amendment; it has been my voice, your voice, our voice in a time when the First Amendment doesn't mean much to an individual today ..." ...

"Democrats hold a majority in Congress, but so does the National Rifle Association, which can command votes from both Republicans and Democrats. The House is hashing out new campaign finance regulations, and the NRA has named its price for not opposing the legislation: that it be exempted from the new disclosure requirements."

"House Democrats added an amendment to the campaign finance bill that would remove disclosure requirements for large nonprofits like the NRA (an exemption that could only apply to a handful of other nonprofits)."

"I have some good news and some bad news to share with you about the NRA free speech sell out."

"First, the good news."

"Our pressure is working. It appears the momentum behind the anti-free speech DISCLOSE Act may be losing steam. Grassroots outrage over the NRA's sickening attempt to cozy up to anti-gun Democrats like Chuck Schumer and Nancy Pelosi is slowing down the bill."

"Today, Forbes is reporting that Democrats are feeling the heat over their devils’ pact with the NRA."

"That is good news, but the bad news is worse…"

"In the 48 hours since an apparent 'deal' was struck between Congressional Democrats and the [NRA] to carve out a special exemption for the NRA and a handful of other special interest groups from provisions of the so-called 'Disclose Act,' a tidal wave of outrage has erupted across the political spectrum."

"Other gun rights organizations have cried foul, liberal special interest groups are fuming as is the liberal media, and even a member of the NRA Board of Directors ... has blasted the exemption. The bill ... has been portrayed by supporters as a way to keep a rein on big corporate spenders during political campaigns, and by opponents as a deplorable move by Congressional Democrats to silence their opposition ..." ...

"Adding his voice to the chorus backing the NRA on a controversial exemption to campaign-finance reform legislation today was Fifth District Democratic Congressman Tom Perriello."

"'The DISCLOSE Act is about taking control of our politics away from corporate front groups and handing it back to the people. The NRA, with its 4 million dues-paying members, is the epitome of people-powered politics, and they deserve to have their voices heard in elections,' Perriello said in a statement released on Thursday." ...

"The DISCLOSE Act ... would require most unions, corporations and nonprofit groups to disclose more information about their donors and their political activities. The original version of the bill set off alarm bills at the NRA, which strongly opposed having to reveal so much information about its donors. Recognizing the political clout of the pro-gun lobby, Democratic leaders cut a deal with the NRA by carving out an exemption from the disclosure rules ..."

"Gun rights activists are accusing the National Rifle Association of 'selling out' to Congressional Democrats over a new measure aimed at requiring more disclosure from corporations getting involved in political races. The NRA was granted an exemption from legislation that would require other groups to disclose top donors, prompting one Virginia group to accuse them of being 'bought off' and 45 groups to lodge a formal protest with Speaker Nancy Pelosi."

"Democratic leaders cut a deal with the NRA, fearing that, if they didn't, the bill's passage this summer would be doomed by members spooked by the potential backlash from the group, an important source of support for gun-friendly lawmakers." ...

"On Tuesday, the NRA confirmed that it had carved out a narrow exemption for itself from HR 5175, the misnamed 'DISCLOSE Act.' Among onerous requirements, the bill would require any political organization which mentions a candidate for most of an election year to report names of some donors and members to the [FEC]."

"When NRA leaders signed on to the deal brokered by Representative Heath Shuler ... they almost certainly anticipated an outcry from liberal organizations. Indeed, 45 such groups have come out in opposition."

"What they probably did not predict, however, was vociferous opposition from their own ranks. Scores of gun rights organizations and ostensibly friendly conservatives have lined up against the NRA ..." ...

"THE National Rifle Association made Ted Strickland's day this week. Ohio's Democratic governor is locked in a tight race with Republican John Kasich, and the NRA's endorsement of his re-election was a major boost to his campaign."

"How sad. What does the NRA's first general-election endorsement of the 2010 midterm cycle say about the politician who got it - and who now basks in the glow of its affirmation?"

"Is this what it takes to get elected in Ohio - chumming with the powerful who play hard but speak for just a small percentage of the voting public? Does this leave a bad taste in anyone else's mouth about the decline and fall of representative government?" ...
-------

Submitter's Note: If the NRA did indeed "speak for just a small percentage of the voting public" then their endorsement would be meaningless. Obviously they do not and it is not.

"Oregon's 32,929 medical marijuana users can't be denied concealed handgun licenses, despite the efforts of at least two sheriffs who want to keep concealed weapons out of those hands."

"The Oregon Court of Appeals ruled this week that Washington County Sheriff Rob Gordon and Jackson County Sheriff Mike Winters were mistaken in their interpretation of the federal Gun Control Act. The act states that 'an unlawful user ... of any controlled substance' can't own a gun, and the sheriffs contended the federal act trumps Oregon's medical marijuana law. Though federal law prohibits marijuana, Oregon's 12-year-old law legalizes pot possession for patients with qualifying ailments and a doctor's approval." ...
 

 QUOTES TO REMEMBER
America does not go abroad in search of monsters to destroy. She is the well-wisher to the freedom and independence of all. She well knows that by one enlisting under other banners than her own, were they even the banners of foreign independence, she would involve herself beyond the power of extrication in all the wars of interest and intrigue, of individual avarice, envy and ambition, which assume the colors and usurp the standards of freedom. — JOHN QUINCY ADAMS (1821)
