The NRA can't get out of its own way

First off, we own guns & hunt, there can't be any saying we're against, or weak-knee'd about that, so we're saying this now:

The NRA often looks like a bunch of wild-eyed, irrational gomers because they attack anyone instantly who isn't rabidly sycophantic about their cause.

Yeah, that's the way the game is played, we get it - but isn't the way to get more flies with honey - or at least with good arguments?

Today they just went back to the same old playbook on Sonia Sotomayor and they look just as nuts as usual.
