Chris Gutek, an analyst for Morgan Stanley, said he heard a ``momentum investor,'' someone who had acquired volume in the stock a number of months ago as H&R Block had been going up consistently, ``has been exiting the stock fairly aggressively in the last day or two.''

Dig me up something to show that the NRA was ever against guncontrol laws before recently. Hell, they endorsed the '68 GCA. Tanya Metaska herself told me so. My wife worked for their national office for five years when it was still in DC. She's the one who gave me the skinny on the NRA. I was still a member when I met her.
I'm referring to the national leadership, of course, not to the rank and file. Rank and file NRA members are almost all strongly on the side of our rights. The lobby's national leadership and many of their state officers are another matter entirely.
Having the NRA recognized as the outfit which speaks for gunowners in the media is a shell game. LaPierre and Heston don't speak for me at all and neither of them would ever be welcome in my house nor trusted with the knowledge of where my guns are.
Keep your powder dry.
Did I call that, or what???
