I think you are confused the NRA and GOP did not run weapons like Obama and crew did.
Were have you been? We need to put our military on the border to stop the illegal aliens from coming and going with know telling what. We must cleanup out country and with out amnesty. Remember a vote for a democrat is a vote for Obama.

gypsy gypsy....... Obama is NOT a Texas politician that could have stop the flow of mass weapons to the murderous Mexican gangs. Wow, are you seriously believe anyone on the earth, that Obama exports guns???? LOL. So throw out all illegals.......are you a tomato picker by trade? Vote Democratic/Obama, there is nothing else to vote for. Clowns don't know how to govern, and thats what your promoting? The GOPClowns are pushing to dramactically raise middelclass taxes. sorry but a big LOL to you. You are the typical conservative thinker, for sure. Listen to fact, not comics, for your decision making.
