New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg's gun control advocacy group, Mayors Against Illegal Guns (MAIG), began running television ads urging Congress to "close the gun show loophole." Page 34 of MAIG's Blueprint for Federal Action on guns says that the group supports H.R. 2324 and S. 843 -- bills that would require National Instant Check System (NICS) checks on private sales of firearms at gun shows. The bills also contain provisions designed to drive gun shows out of business.Bloomberg's MAIG ads claim "The Columbine school massacre ... killers got their guns because of a gap in the law, called the 'gun show loophole.'" And in a related press release, MAIG claims "All four guns used in the Columbine shootings were bought from private sellers at gun shows."
Those claims are lies, of course.
What else has this former Democratic, former RINO, political class member done lately for the good of the powerful, rich, elitists?
“According to an extensive review of the mayor’s financial records by The Observer, even as Mr. Bloomberg was trying to counter the loss of taxes and other income from the richest New Yorkers, the foundation he controls was in the process of shuttling hundreds of millions of dollars out of the city and into controversial offshore tax havens that would produce nothing at all for the city in terms of tax revenue. (Aram Roston, New York Observer)
While begging New Yorkers to keep their tax dollars in state (and in the “state’s pockets”) Mayor Bloomberg was quietly taking his money offshore.
How much did he move offshore? About $290 million dollars!
Mr Hyper-Rich, Bloomberg -- A perfect example of the elitists now running Mr Obama's deception of America.

I hope it doesn't come to that.
The Democratic Party is showing a scary willingness to roller skate on every third rail of American politics. I hope this proves suicidal only for them and not the rest of the country.
