Oliver North - New NRA Head

[OtterbatHellcat]

I'm also a life member of the NRA.

I'll wait and see how it works out.

LOL.
He facilitated arms sales to kill communists and then funneled the proceeds to another country to kill communists.
He did so covertly because Democratic Congress members blocked any above board attempts to do the above.
Then when same pissy bitch Democratic Congress members attempted to eviscerate him and get him to roll he basically told Congress to eat shit.
He fell on his own sword to protect those above.
He also forewarned us of the Islamic threat facing us.

He's an American hero.



He might not be the perfect choice for NRA President but he is a Marine.
They have core values that are in the best interest of this nation and our Constitution.
Close enough to perfect for me.

Besides, his presence will make lefties shit kittens.

RobertH, your earlier post rings true.

Well said Mr. North did his job, and never turned tail to hide from anyone. He did what he should have, protected us and fell on a granade doing just that. IC went much higher then Mr. North.

So wait, are we calling Iran Contra good now?

If you were one of the freed hostages, what would you call it?

Yep.

Some perspective on who got paid:

President Obama paid Iran billions of dollars(we don't actually know how much because no one is investigating): https://www.cbsnews.com/news/u-s-pai...cash-delivery/

President Reagan paid Iran 15.2 million dollars: https://www.nytimes.com/1987/11/19/w...the-money.html

What did we get? President Obama got a promise from Iran to slow their nuclear program and much of that money is now being used to wage war against the West. President Reagan got some dead Sandinista communists and a few American hostages released by Hezbollah.

While I would much rather have all of this money refunded to the taxpayers of the United States, I am not losing any sleep over LTC North's current position with the NRA. I doubt that there are very many of us who watched the Iran-Contra hearings live, and even fewer of us who spent some time on Capitol Hill while those hearings were taking place.

If Fred Rogers was still alive and held a position at the NRA, the same progressive ideologues would be screaming epithets about him bathing in the blood of dead children.

Much anxiety about nothing.

I couldn't have said it better myself. Say what you will, I have much respect for the man.

Anyone who thinks a LtCol could own total responsibility for the Iran-Contra deal doesn't understand the authority of rank in the military.

My only question: Will the NRA find its balls and start representing gun owners?

If so, I will renew and donate again.

Obama Voters: Oh teh noes Iran Contra
Obama: Gives Iran $1.7 BILLION CASH on pallets

I don’t harbor any negative opinions of Lt Col North, but his name is mud in the general population. Appointing him to a leadership position within the NRA is bad optics.

The NRA will never, ever, ever be able to do anything at all that would result in "good optics" from the mainstream press, politicians, or the left, so as far as a metric for good/bad, this one doesn't really apply.

Don't read this as a defense of North.
