Heh - a Gallup Poll

From Breitbart:
Polls: NRA More Popular than Obama, Media
A Gallup poll conducted in the wake of the Connecticut shooting shows that the NRA is viewed more favorably than Obama or the Mainstream Media.

This is astounding when you think of the concerted effort by Democrats and MSM talking heads to denigrate and shame both the NRA and gun-owners at large following the criminal acts of Adam Lanza.

According to the poll, carried out Dec. 19-22, the NRA is viewed favorably by 54% of Americans.

Contrast this with a CBS poll conducted for Obama on Dec. 12-16, wherein his favorable rating was only 49%, and a September Gallup poll focused on the media, wherein the MSM's favorable rating was 40%.

The bottom line: the NRA remains popular because they defend our gun rights -- period. And now, more than ever, Americans know those rights need to be defended from gun-grabbing Democrats and duplicitous MSM personalities like David Gregory.
I would disagree with how these numbers are somewhat cherry-picked but the trend here is very obvious. These words come to mind:
When governments fear the people, there is liberty. When the people fear the government, there is tyranny. The strongest reason for the people to retain the right to keep and bear arms is, as a last resort, to protect themselves against tyranny in government.
--Thomas Jefferson
Been reading a lot of the original founding documents -- Federalist Papers, etc... These were some amazingly well-read and intelligent people -- 180° from the self-serving hacks we have running things today. Posted by DaveH at December 30, 2012 6:14 PM
