WASHINGTON (AP) — The National Rifle Association has enjoyed high-profile success over the years in shaping gun-rights legislation in Congress and statehouses, in part by campaigning to defeat lawmakers who defied the group.
Now, the NRA has added a lesser-known strategy to protect its interests: opposing President Barack Obama's judicial nominees whom it sees as likely to enforce gun-control laws. In some cases, the group's opposition has kept jobs on federal benches unfilled.
they are the outside influences along with Koch's et al who aspire to control our gov't through purchasing our politicians loyalty.
A case study in the group's approach across the country can be found in its opposition to the nominations of the two most recent Supreme Court justices.
The NRA opposed both Sonia Sotomayor and
Elena Kagan and warned its allies in Congress that their votes to confirm each
would be held against them.
THERE HAS TO BE SOME LAW AGAINST THIS SKULDUGGERY PERPETRATED BY THE REPUBLICAN PARTY TO FRAUDULENTLY GAIN POWER AND CONTROL OVER ULTIMATELY "WE THE PEOPLE".
