So? John DIngell quit the NRA board of directors so he could vote FOR Clinton’s AW ban.
Never trust a traitor.

Wish I could say that I’m boycotting Bud, but I don’t drink the swill.Agree completly. This could sink Budweiser. The only thing I like about Bud are some of the commercials.

So what did this moron think the mission of the NRA was when he sought membership?
Busch sold out to InBev (Belgian) so I don't think boycotting Bud would mean a thing to this clown now.

Is he the one who killed a girl in a car wreck while in college and got a steel plate in his head, then had a whore drown in his pool a few years ago?

Right. When people could drink legally again, the organized crime infrastructure was still in place. They were not going to go broke just because alcohol was legal again. NOT!
They just found OTHER things to traffic!
Some people NEVER learn anything.
