The NRA Uses Progressive Tactics

I think the NRA just shot themselves in the foot by using tactics that are normally prescribed to the progressive left, namely “win at any cost” and “the ends justify the means”.
From WSJ:
Guns and Free Speech
The NRA sells out to Democrats on the First Amendment.

The People Making Money: Lawmakers

The big winners?  Lawmakers.  No surprise there.  If you had a pile of cash, wouldn’t you want to be in the district of criminals to protect it?

John Willoughby: The Jones Act And Hawaii Monopolies

Mid-April, I introduced my readers to John Willoughby (R) who is running to unseat Mazie Hirono in Hawaii’s 2nd District. If you have not yet taken the time to peruse this common sense, conservative alternative to Mazie Hirono, go here.
