Data Shows Obama Still Best Gun Salesman In The US, Says CCRKBA

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

BELLEVUE, WA - Last month set a new record for the number of background
checks ever conducted during the month of June in the 17-year history of the
National Instant Check System, prompting the Citizens Committee for the
Right to Keep and Bear Arms to declare that, for the seventh year in a row,
Barack Obama is the best gun salesman in the United States.

"It's a dubious honor for the president, I'm sure," CCRKBA Chairman Alan
Gottlieb chuckled. "After all, Barack Obama has been advocating all forms of
gun control since before he was elected back in 2008, and the only thing
that has really ever accomplished is to push gun sales higher."

Gottlieb cited data released Monday by the National Shooting Sports
Foundation that said the NSSF-adjusted National Instant Check System (NICS)
figure of 886,825 checks was the highest on record for the month of June
since the system was inaugurated. It is up considerably over June 2014, when
there were 805,571 NICS checks, according to the NSSF-adjusted data. This
year's second quarter figure was also the second highest in the system's
history, at 2,793,230 checks.

"Barack Obama is a heck of a gun salesman," Gottlieb observed. "All he has
to do is complain in an interview about his disappointment at not being able
to push more gun control, and sales spike.

"On the plus side," he added, "this has brought more than $808 million into
the federal aid to wildlife restoration program this year, according to
figures from the U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service. And it has brought many new
people into the ranks of shooters and gun owners, including lots more women.

"Under the Obama administration," Gottlieb concluded, "the one industry that
seems to have flourished throughout has been the firearms industry. His
policies and pronouncements have resulted in higher gun and ammunition
sales, more new gun owners, more jobs at retail gun shops and sporting good
stores, and increased membership and support for gun rights organizations.
Just keep talking, Mr. President. It's good for the Second Amendment."

Being a gun control nut's gotta really suck these days. :)

Being that stupid has always sucked.
