%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% That link had some great points; however some [RHINO-LOL]Republicans hate the tea party as much as some Dems. Plenty of powerful Dems have been NRA helpful,Pres JFK, Pres Ronald Reagan, both NRA, LIFE members.Pres US Grant was a good NRA LIFE member, but known for corrup tion, also. And while Pres Ronald Reagan is not a ''Dem today '' ; he used to be a Democrat ,then became much wiser as he aged.LOL
