[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Wait a minute.

We hear from libs here all the time about how congress is in the pocket of the gun industry, how much money the gun industry has in politics, and how much the NRA influenced politicians

[b]
And now you're telling me the second biggest receiver of NRA money only got $10,000?

Are you shitting me?!?!?!?!

That's all?!?!?!?!?!

How does the NRA control congress with piddling ass little donations like that?!?!?!

Hahahahaha!!!!!!!!! [/quote]

Yeah, compare that to what the NEA (National Educators' Association) gave the Dems.  GUffaw guffaw.[/quote]

Wait, did Education just kill 58 people? [/quote][/b]

Where do I even start?  The NEA is one of the most powerful unions in the USA.  It was responsible for the attack on DeVos and the continuing attacks on her (all a waste of money).  The NEA gives millions to Warren, Schumer, Kaine, etc., and all the dems on the Education Committees to do its bidding.  And they did do its bidding.  Then the NEA asked for more money.  And stupid teachers nationwide sent in more money because it believed the nonsense the NEA dishes out.  Has a single thing that the NEA predicted about DeVos come true for local teachers?  Not one thing.[/quote]

Thank you. [/quote]

Try again.  The NEA has not "given millions" to Warren, Shumer, Kaine, etc.  They cannot, by law -- in the same way the NRA cannot, by law.

But, again, the NEA does spend money on behalf of or in opposition to candidates (see Warren's totals here: https://www.opensecrets.org/outsidespending/recips.php?cycle=2012&cmte=National%20Education%20Assn)

The NEA spends less than does the NRA.
