The NRA has shot themselves in the foot. Not another dime from me.


Throttle fixes everything. If it doesn't fix the problem, it’ll end the suspense.

You forgot to tell us how much the Zero organization got fined for financial shenanigans in his last campaign didnt you?

Did you also conveniently forget about your hero the Zero sending $5 billion to Qatar and released $150 billion to Iran?

I used to contribute regularly to the NRA. I will not give them another penny until Wayne is gone.

GOA gets my money now.

1. Disney pays their CEO every month, more than WLP gets annually.
2. Why do any of you think you are getting accurate information???

No problem with his base wage. The fringe benefits like suits, vacations and homes should be taken care of by him and his wages.

1. Disney is NOT a registered non-profit.
2. I’ve already said my piece regarding the ridiculously exorbitant salaries of CEO’s that didn’t build the company themselves.
3. When your sole source of income comes from the goodwill donations of the people it’s best to use them wisely and not piss off the people that you rely on.

Busting balls about his salary is like bitching about the cost of dinner at Ruth's Chris Steak house. A prime steak, sides and couple of drinks for two is $200. people can think that's ridiculous, but Prime meat is costly, professional waitstaff is costly. a nice decor is costly, and not crowding tables butt to butt cuts down on the number of people you can seat.

You are spot on.

And just for the record, last time a coworker and I were at Ruth’s Chris dinner was $300 for the two of us. The boss never says a word because we do a good job and as far as he’s concerned, we deserve it.

Chui,

I have to ask a question. This is a job that takes a dedicated, talented, and very, very strong pro 2A leader. It must be somebody who knows the ins and outs of Washington lobbying, has to be an extremely strong fundraiser, and has to be nimble in front of reporters and the camera not to trapped with inane questions. Diplomacy is crucial in front of the Press.

So how big is that pool of candidates, and what kind of cash does it take to hire them on? I will tell you that when it comes to big time corporate management, 6 figures ain't gonna get you the talent you need. When you get into the world of Washington lobbying, the passionate 2A people get really scarce.

Busting balls about his salary is like bitching about the cost of dinner at Ruth's Chris Steak house. A prime steak, sides and couple of drinks for two is $200. people can think that's ridiculous, but Prime meat is costly, professional waitstaff is costly. a nice decor is costly, and not crowding tables butt to butt cuts down on the number of people you can seat.

Homer and Earl can sit around in their overall as go "Hell Earl, I can get all you can eat ribs and free drink refills at the BBQ joint for $14.99. Phouc Ruth!". Yeah, Homer and Earl can, but the result is plain to see. You get Eugenia, the high school girl serving, and Mable the tooth lady at the cash register. Fine hard working people, but if you wanted Prime Steak, that ain't it.

My point is that WHOMEVER we want to run the NRA needs to better than good to hold off the gun grabbers. The NRA is the single biggest reason the gun grabber haven't gotten further along in their agenda. Whomever runs the NRA is going demand a good salary that is in the ballpark of what they can make in the private sector. If you are fortunate to get a Charlton Heston type ho might even volunteer, you still need an expert in Washington lobbying to work with him and that dude will need to be PAID. there is no way around it.

Who do y'all thin helps the conservative pro 2A draft legislation to protect gun rights? It's largely the brain trust, lawyers etc. in the NRA. The write it up, submit it to whichever Congressman they are working with and then their staff takes it from their. DOn't believe for a moment that bills and legislation are whipped by people like AOC who couldn't hard boil an egg. That's what lobbyist do.

Respectfully Yours,

Hat
Two hundred bucks for a steak dinner is a crock of shyt just like useless Waynes salary. That ass hole has been capitulating with the enemy and compromising my rights away for years. He SUCKS at his job and always has.

I'd do the job for a half mill a year, and wear Carhardtts the whole time I'm doing it. They can feed me McDonalds and buy me a trailer to live in and I'll go anywhere they want me to at the drop of a damn hat.

I went to a Ruth’s Chris once because my sons FIL just raves about them. I left with s lighter wallet, notably unimpressed, and doubtful I’ll darken their door again.

It was a decent steak, but by far not the best I’ve had. Not the value I expected. I make a damn good steak at home for far less. I could eat steak for a month on that restaurant bill. Maybe that’s just me.

Hatari…….your post is on the money......I think one of the big disconnects is...…….a lot of guys that post on this subject...maybe don't make a lot of money......and don't have a clue what people that can do these type of jobs... can get in wages.


a lot of comments on this are asinine…..the house thing is to far out there...but fringe benefits go with those type of jobs.....


and I consider myself a brokedick…...bob
