Take this hard hitting statement for instance.


Democratic Party shouldn't be for the NRA

Q: Do you find it necessary to kill animals for photo-ops?
A: I don't think the Democratic Party should be the candidacy of the NRA. And when I was fighting to ban assault weapons in 1992 and 1993, Dean was appealing to the NRA for their endorsement, and he got it. I believe it's important for us to have somebody who is going to stand up for gun safety in America and make certain that we make our streets safe, our children safe, and not allow people to get assault weapons in America.

He was so "on message" that he didn't even bother answering the question.


Kerry started his campaign blasting the NRA and his gun stands helped him overcome Dean who was endorsed 8 times by the NRA.

I thought Kerry had put up the pro-gun window dressing. Did I miss something? And I don't think Dean ever got an endorsement from the NRA. He did get a good rating from them numerous times though.

I love that "developed nations" quote. When are y'all going to learn how grating that statement is to those that don't consider our darker skinned brethren to be our inferiors but rather our equals?
