    Reid touts NRA tie, reaches out to activists as Tea Partiers rally

    March 27, 2010

    Searchlight, Nevada (CNN) – As thousands of Tea Party activists rally in his hometown of Searchlight, Nevada, Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid is burnishing his Second Amendment credentials.

When was the last time you heard CNN tout a candidate’s Second Amendment credentials?

    Reid’s re-election campaign describes National Rifle Association Executive Vice President Wayne LaPierre as "one of the senator’s supporters." The two are at a $60 million Clark County shooting park which, according to the Reid campaign, wouldn’t have opened without the senator’s help.

When was the last time you heard CNN quote the NRA in a favorable way?

Oh, and when was the last time you heard of a shooting range that cost $60 million taxpayer dollars?

    In a statement to CNN regarding Saturday’s Tea Party rally in his hometown, the Senate’s top Democrat said: "I’m happy so many people came to see my hometown of Searchlight and spend their out-of-state money especially in these tough economic times. Ultimately though this election will be decided by Nevadans, not people from other states who parachute in for one day to have a tea party."

    Reid’s camp is trying to welcome the Tea Partiers.

Yes, that repulsively snide comment was most welcoming.

    The Nevada State Democratic Party and the Reid campaign have set up a hospitality tent not far from the Tea Party rally site. "We are serving Tea and donut holes in recognition that Senator Reid just passed health care reform and we’re closing the Medicare donut hole," says Zac Petkanas, deputy communications director of the Reid campaign. He adds it’s staffed, "with real Nevadans from Nevada and folks from Searchlight who support Reid."

We’re surprised they could find enough real Nevadans to man their in-hospitality tent for “Pinky” Reid.

But they were probably teamster thugs who are famous for their love of free doughnuts.

    The Nevada Democrats hold their big Jefferson Jackson dinner Saturday night where former Vice President Al Gore will be the keynote speaker.

Speaking of real Nevadans.

Oh, and just wait until real Nevadans realize how hard “Pinky” Read is pushing ‘cap and trade.’

Though they never will from CNN or any of the rest of Mr. Reid’s lickspittle minions in the media.



I wish Harry good shooting, (really) as a retired FORMER MEMBER of the U.S. Senate....

I sure hope that he's better with firearms safety than representing the wishes of his constituents. It wouldn't do for him to be injured by any negligent discharges.

Amazing double standard isn't it?

Seems the Communist News Network, in lock step with the state run media, picks and chooses it's position. 



    Reid’s re-election campaign describes National Rifle Association Executive Vice President Wayne LaPierre as "one of the senator’s supporters."

If I get to meet LaPierre in Charlotte in May, I'll ask him about this...how far does this "support" go??

[ericire12]

I saw a sign at the tea party rally in nevada. I said:

"Reid, its time to retire.... we are here to help."

The NRA should be supporting Reid, and every other pro gun incumbent regardless of party. I don't pay them to do anything else. Vote right on guns, get NRA support. As far as healthcare, well we will make up our own minds, but its not what the NRA is paid  to lobby for. I want any single issue group I fund to focus on that single issue.

Even if they support the signing of treaties and backdoor legislation that will disarm you? It's all fine and good when they vote the right way on a bill specific to firearms. The real record that we should look at is the votes that have back door gun grabs.

[Solus]

If Reid or any other otherwise pro gun politician has specifically supported the UN Small Arms Treaty or any other "back door" anti gun proposals, I am sure the NRA will withdraw support. 

LaPierre, speaking for the NRA, is one of the first and most vocal opponents of the UN treaty.

I am sure NRA support for Reid and any others who back those anti-gun measures will stop and a very aggressive statement of non-support will be repeatedly published and propagated.
