<snip>
You know, the people who pretend liberals are such elites that they call them limousine liberals, whereas they stand for the flag-waving Russian peasants also now known as the conservative base.
Yes, it turns out, according to the Wall Street Journal, the NRA board let Wayne LaPierre charge $440,000 to the nonprofit, $200,000 of which was for suits. Suits he bought in Beverly Hills. California. Land of the snitty liberal elite.
Oh, and trips! Yes, Wayne LaPierre, who of course hates Europe like any red-blooded American who supports selling military weapons to children and suspected terrorists because hey, money is God, spent $240,000 on trips to Italy, Hungary, and the Bahamas, and charged the NRA without providing adequate documentation. - PoliticusUSA
Hypocrites and rubes. Can't have one without the other. Our slimy republican party at work.

... and LePierre still looks like a frumpy Fascist wet noodle Nazi ?
Well the old cliche comes into play...
You can't dress him up...
And you can't take him anywhere.
Maybe he would look better if he wore a brown shirt with those very expensive custom made men's suits ? A swastika on his lapel would be a nice finishing touch.
ACHTUNG NRA.
