I love it when the truth, the facts come out, especially on politicians who take money from organizations and who then put that organization and its preferences ahead of the American public, ahead of the nation.
Nowhere is this any more true than with our own Senator Roy Blunt and the money--the big money--he takes from the NRA, the National Rifle Association. Here's that article. It ran June 14, 2016:
Who's the top recipient of NRA donations
anywhere in the country
The St. Louis Post-Dispatch also ran it, same day:
Another one just ran two days ago in Fortune Magazine:

Don't get me wrong here. You needn't feel sorry for the good Senator Blunt, however. According to that same article, he did take in more than four and one half million dollars from the NRA alone. In all, he got a cool, whopping $4,551,146 just from the NRA. Poor kid, he's fallen back to the number 3 position on how much he raked in from that greedy, selfish, self-serving organization.
