Notes from the Resistance
Expect Cotton, Coy, and LaPierre to tell NRA members at the Members’ Meeting in Indianapolis on April 15 that everything is going great, that “your NRA” is strong and effective, and that they expect to hand NY AG Letitia James a resounding defeat in court soon. Then expect the Board, on the following Monday, to approve the bylaw amendment allowing Cotton to serve another term as President, followed closely by his “unanimous” reelection to that office.

Don’t look for what it will take to reverse that to happen because the main objection has no choice but to hang on for dear life.
And don’t look for a Board of Directors armed with rubber stamps to play the role of the Roman Senate.

At what point does the shrinking vanish into nothingness?
Looks like Wayne and his hip pocket board are doing Letitia James’ work for her.

Be it resolved that the members of the National Rifle Association of America, in convention assembled, does declare its profound support for the past, present and future leadership of its executive vice president, Wayne LaPierre…One prominent LaPierre backer, Janet Nyce, denounced Wayne’s critics as “the enemy within,” whom she blamed for taking “our beloved NRA down to her knees.” A former sheriff from Montana, who is also a board member, insisted he was “getting tired of these s*** o* b****** at every one of these meeting coming in and trashing Wayne LaPierre.” [More]
Make your decisions accordingly.
NRA: Allen West’s Run For Wayne’s’ Job Will Not Prevail In Houston [More]
I have no problem objectively assessing West’s qualifications and capabilities. The membership should insist on that for all positions. We don’t need a popular figurehead, we need a principled leader who knows how to get things done.
