Is anyone else seeing nra attack ads?
I saw my first one last night while watching countdown, I thought it was a parody they were doing at first. In the ad they said Clinton (Bill), Schumer, and Kenedy want to eliminate the second ammendment and take your guns from you, especially during a national ememgency.
Then the program came back and I realized it was an actual ad.

I've got to say it was very poorly done, for a political ad, it suprised me to see the nra as responsible for this piece of offal.
Plus we're into the third generation of neocon porno terror, it's getting shorter, so i don't know if they think they've effectively honed their message or if they're running short of money.
I'm more inclined to believe the first, and look for a flurry of sick attack ads to be coming my way in a couple of weeks.

1. Haven't seen out in Western Washington
Must be part of a targetted "booga bogga" fear campaign by the NRA.

shootings are in the news. The ad is blatantly and noticeably misleading.

People are not hearing something different or something new. Attacking Democrats has now become equivalent to attacking your friends, neighbors, family and co-workers.

It is over for them, because Republicans have no shame, no common sense, no accountability and no intellect. Americans have learned a lesson about the consequences of voting based on an attack ad.

I thought that's it? Using Bill and Ed Kennedy to scare us? they must have hit the bottom of the barrel. Welcome to Du :hi:
