It Just Keeps Getting Worse

May 14, 2019 By: Juanita Jean Herownself Category: Uncategorized

Okay, so come to find out, the NRA didn’t disclose the $250,000 it spent lobbying in Florida in the aftermath of the Parkland shooting.

The NRA paid a Florida lobbyist, Marion Hammer, to fight gun control and lobby the legislature after the massacre, but didn’t report it.

There were additional payments. NRA tax returns show that Hammer received $147,000 in 2014, $172,000 in 2015 and $206,000 in 2016. The total: $525,000. For each of those years, the NRA reported she worked an average of five hours per week. None of it was reported to state lobbyist regulators.

She works half a day a week and makes three figures?  I need that job, y’all, and if it wasn’t for the selling your soul part, I’d apply for it.

Somebody get some marshmallows and sticks because the NRA is gonna burn itself up.

Yeah, that just makes my day.

    The messy set of Venn diagrams that comprises the snocilbupeR party would earn an F- in junior high math. The NRA is just one nasty little subset among nasty subsets. It’s something Barry Goldwater warned the Cons about when they admitted the crazy wing of the BuyBull grifters to launch the “southern strategy.” The nearly bankrupt NRA went to Putin when there wasn’t enough legitimate money to keep them afloat. Idiot tools thinking an autocratic thug would champion arms for the masses. Massive amounts of money from Russia and the NRA business model is still heading toward bankruptcy. Were they schooled at Trump U or simply sharing the one brain cell with IQ4.5? Goldwater was the smart one, Dubya the nice one, Reagan the saintly one, Nixon the ethical one among Republicons. Dotard45 and his maladministration making that all seem true one dumbass evil step at a time.

    There’s whoring, then there’s whoring. Old Marion would need more than air in a float to rise to the level of the pink flamingo lady.

  2. If the NRA crashes, burns and becomes defunct from bankruptcy, I send them my thoughts and prayers.

  3. Sounds like a crisis actor for the NRA. These guys don’t even need a gun to shoot themselves in the foot, or the head. Perhaps someone will come across their writhing vestiges soon, moaning in agony, and put them out of their misery. It’ll be an act of kindness. Probably with a pen.

  4. Marion Hammer is the NRA’s lobbyist in Florida and has been for the last 40 years. She is very powerful in the Republican state and is in fact the force behind the horrible stand your ground laws as well as the laws forbidding Docs to ask if families with children have a gun in the home. Maybe if the NRA crashes and burns she will have to retire. She is about 79 years old. It’s time. But the damage done will most likely be impossible to undo.

    I did the math. $525,000 / 50 weeks a year / 3 years / 5 hours a week = $700 an hour.

    Some hookers charge more than that; some less. Marion is about mid-range.

  6. Don’t worry about the NRA. The rank and file will find a way to blame it all on Obama, Pelosi, and Clinton.

  7. The math I did says that comes out to $30,882 per dead Parkland student.
    Add in the Pulse Nightclub of 49 (I think?), and the murderous, soulless NRA/GOP has “invested” $7,954 per dead Florida body. I wonder if Wayne LP and GOP pals think that’s good business?

    I so deeply loathe them.

  8. I’m beginning to think that this LaPierrre farce hasn’t hit bottom yet. Just like we all suspected J. Edgar Hoover of a number of naughty things and it all blew apart when we found out he liked wearing dresses. Could good old Wayne have the same proclivity? If so, game over.

    Russia/NRA is blowing through 97k per day for legal fees according to a recent report-no not the report a gun makes when you shoot it.
