For a little background on the political tactics and rhetoric of the NRA, check out this 6-minute speech from 2011, wherein NRA chief Wayne LaPierre claims to have the REAL reason that Obama didn't do any regulation of guns in his term.
The answer? A 'massive Obama conspiracy' to be pro-gun in the first term, so he could then win re-election in the second term.
Completely absurd sounding, but it's how you keep things going, when you don't have anything specific to get your members enthused about.
