Wayne LaPierre expensed $39,000 in clothes in one day,

So? Dude's gotta look good. If it's not a regular expense, I got no issue with this.

$18,300 for car and driver

Same thing here. Over what period of time? A month? That might be excessive. A year? Less so, in fact, leaning toward miserly.

NRA says board has ‘full confidence’ in him

Me too. Wayne has done Yeomans Work for the NRA.

Well, okay. But I wonder how it would go if 1,100 NRA members received this letter: “Thank you for your $35 dues. We will be using your money to buy Wayne some new shirts.”

I’m guessing that the letter wouldn’t be very well received.

Side note: You’re right about the WSJ being biased. So I’ll qualify my above remarks by saying: If the story is true...

Something tells me that the “car and driver “ was actually security for his NRA tour of Europe. Don’t have a problem with that one. Custom made suits run $3,500 a piece. Custom shirts around $400 each. I need more information.

A dude can look good and still not spend $39,000 in a “boutique”. Wayne’s got to go.

I doubt I’ve spent $39,000 on clothes in the last 15 years.

Bye bye, Wayne.

I just purchased a new Jeep Compass in one day and didn't spend that amount of money..........

I do have a major issue of $39K in clothes and being billed to the NRA............I wouldn't have a problem if he shopped for clothes at Cabela's rather than Barney's of New York.............

Agreed. The NRA has been extremely helpful in protecting gun rights. There is a reason the Left hates it so much.

And Wayne has done a good job and the terms give him a clothing allowance.

39,000 for clothing is not unusual. I have a friend who makes suits for wall streeters. In 2008 he was charging 25,000 per suit and there are many others who do the same work as there is good demand. I am good with that expenditure.
