Friday Extra: Don't let the door hit you on the way out.


According to USA Today ("McPaper"), Dan Cooper has resigned from Cooper Firearms. USA Today included a quote sure to cement Cooper's reputation for gullibility:

I don't believe that what's being said about Obama and his policies about guns are accurate. I have had a conversation with the senator … he is a stanch supporter of the right to hunt and the right to bear arms.

You bet, Dan, because what a politician says is always sooooooo much more accurate and predictive than his past behavior. (For reference: how do you tell when a politician is lying to you? When his lips are moving!) Guess it's all that HopeyChangey (copyright 2008, TamKo Enterprises) at work, which would seem to be even more powerful than Steve Jobs' Reality Distortion Field.

USA Today also managed to land a quote from Bob Ricker, who heads up the thoroughly discredited "American Hunters and Shooters Association". No surprise that he doesn't like the turn of events at Cooper. (I'll leave it to you to Google all about AHSA and their connections to the DNC, which in turn will tell you how much Ricker's opinion is worth.)

According to the article, the blame for Cooper's ouster goes to those meddling bloggers and muckraking internet forums that prompted a massive grassroots response against him. Of course, in politics when grassroots action agrees with your position/candidate it's "good", but when it doesn't it's "evil".

Tuesday is going to be interesting.
