That makes it political with an agenda.

Sorry you folks on the left don't see it that way but I do.

Lobbyists should not be running the government, not in any industry and not for any cause.
So it's OK to be a victim and not OK for a congresswoman to have a political agenda?

Um no. She is a lobbyist. There is no difference. Her super-pac formed on 1/10/2013.
Her donor of $1 million to get it started is also her Treasurer.

Maybe you need to do a bit more digging. She is no different than LaPierre, lobbyists with political agendas.

She's not speaking as a victim, but as the head of a super pac with a political agenda out to go up against the NRA.
If that is not more biased then I don't know what is.

LaPierre is funded by the gun manufacturers. The majority of NRA owners don't even agree with the NRA's stand on not supporting universal background checks. If he was representing gun owners he would lobby according to their principles, but he is not. He is lobbying for the gun manufacturers.

Yet another witty post by the mob. Perhaps you can look into the fact that Giffords is a lobbyist now. Funny how you folks despised old Abramoff and called him every name you could think of but that was ok. Now if someone merely mentions that Giffords is in fact a lobbyist and you go all a tizzy. I guess only certain lobbyists are despised by the left. lol
