LA Times puts on the beret: NRA is losing, we are pushing the Americans back!
Good grief, these people are shameless. Via See-Dub at Malkin's place, we get this LA Times propaganda piece about the NRA.
Yes, yes! We are defeating the NRA!
No, no we are not losing, we are pushing the Gun Nut Forces back!

But this time, the issue that GOP strategists once relied on to provide crucial votes in close elections has lost much of its political punch.
The NRA may have become a victim of its own success.
Yes, yes! We are defeating the NRA!
Congress hasn't passed major legislation to restrict gun use in 14 years. Democrats -- scarred by past NRA campaigns -- almost never talk about the issue anymore.
And Americans now show little interest in gun control. Just half want tougher rules for gun sales, compared with nearly two-thirds in 2000.
No, no we are not losing, we are pushing the Gun Nut Forces back!
Yet that very triumph may prove politically perilous for Republicans hoping to put John McCain in the White House. Two years ago, GOP candidates backed by the NRA lost in a number of swing states, including Virginia, Missouri and Wisconsin, that could play pivotal roles this fall.
...I am telling you, we are pushing them back, they cannot stand up to Paul Helmke's brilliant leadership and strategy!
Please, please, we are destroying the Gun Nut Forces, we have them on the run! Hey, stop laughing!
If these cautions could once tip elections, recent history is not encouraging. NRA-backed U.S. Senate candidates in Pennsylvania, Montana, Missouri, Minnesota and Virginia all lost in 2006, even though the gun group spent more than $1 million on their races, according to federal election data collected by the Center for Responsive Politics.
Please, please, we are destroying the Gun Nut Forces, we have them on the run! Hey, stop laughing!
