by The other day I wrote about a complaint filed with the Federal Elections Commission against Giffords PAC. They are accused of violating FEC joint fundraising rules in their efforts to raise money for their PAC and certain anti-gun Democrats in combined solicitations.
Today’s email brings a response from Giffords.
It is so utterly typical. Rather than accepting that they crossed the line, they are claiming victimhood saying they are being attacked by the “gun lobby”.
The gun lobby is coming after us.
This week, the National Shooting Sports Foundation (NSSF) — one of the largest gun lobbies in the country — filed a complaint with the FEC against GIFFORDS….
We cannot let their attacks go unanswered. What GIFFORDS needs right now is our most dedicated supporters stepping up to help fight back.
Will you please rush a donation to help us beat back the gun lobby and defeat their extremist candidates everywhere?
Let me simplify this argument.
How dare that evil gun lobby insist we adhere to the rules! We are the victims here. We only did it for the “greater good”. Oh, and we need you rubes to send us more money.
Give me a break.
