Bush And Nra

NPR's John Burnett reports on how former President George Bush's resignation from the NRA has affected other members of the organization. This past week, Bush wrote a letter of resignation from the group saying he was offended by comments from one NRA leader who referred to federal agents as "jack-booted thugs" and compared them to Nazis. NRA members have had a variety of reactions to Bush's move with some agreeing that the rifle association has gone too far while others just say "good riddance" to the former president.
