They wanted someone with a history of selling weapons to people with no morals. You know, to replace the current guy who had those same values.

 

[pcgeek11]

Maybe they can also get some of those "Fast and Furious" guys to sign up too.

Eric Holder, Robert Mueller...

Robert Mueller...

Uh, huh. There a ton of headlines on right wing sites usually ending with a '?" attempting to make this point. Can you site something from when Fast and Furious was actually a thing showing real involvement from Mueller in an operation that was run by the ATF?

 

[pcgeek11]

Part of the coverup.

 

[Puffnstuff]

Wouldn't Iran-Contra be considered sufficient qualification for this job? He does have the public speaking skills for it.

 

[brycejones]

Part of the coverup?

FTFY based on the evidence you've presented so far. Which is none.

 

[IJTSSG]

He was a hero in Viet Nam, broke a lot of laws in the White House, has made a fortune as a right wing talking head since then.

Was Ted Nugent not available?

He was busy shitting his pants.

Who needs evidence when you have feels,

 

[Greenman]

Good choice by the NRA.

Righties do l love their traitors and criminals!

So an group that is essentially becoming a terrorist organization chooses as its head a man that literally committed treason. Seems to fit if nothing else.

Yes, Ollie was part of the coverup of Reagan's involvement. A loyal guy who didn't rat out the Boss. That's why he's a Hero to the right wing.

It really says more about them than they realize.

He's a "yes man" -check
Is a liar -check
Has no moral conscious and follows orders blindly -check
Was apart of the "deep state" -check
Willing to cover up for his boss-check

All great qualities for an authoritarian cabal.

 

[OutHouse]

na im pretty sure that being a war hero has a lot more to do with it., but carry on with your dumb statements.

treason? lol it is apparent you have no idea what treason is or what North was convicted of or why all of it was dismissed.. fail fail fail.

 

[hal2kilo]

I can't think of a better person to represent the insanity of the NRA. Good on you.

Selling weapons to Iran (an enemy of the U.S. at the time) was a big part of his scheme. The other part was misappropriating the proceeds to fund rapists and murderers in Nicaragua. He also stole some of the money for personal use. I can see why Republicans worship him.

 

[sandorski]

Just wtf is the criteria to being the President of the NRA? Most organizations would choose someone with good management skills or perhaps communication skills. This just seems like a choice based upon how controversial the person is.

It's really become stick it in the eye type of shit anymore with conservatives. If they know liberals hate whoever it is, it makes conservatives have orgasms.

Look it up.

Don't know the meaning of treason I see.

 

[pcgeek11]

To be factual it doesn't matter who they pick. The left would rip them apart as they have for the last couple of years with anyone that supports the current administration...
