",,, a group billing itself as the Third Way, along with an "uber strategist" from the 1992 Clinton campaign, is helping the Newtown families project their grief onto law-abiding gun owners who have never harmed anyone.
After boarding Air Force One with President Obama last week to bring their message of stricter gun control to Washington, relatives have gone from a support group to full-fledged lobbyists. If that's not worrisome enough, the hired guns behind the families act as if the murdered kids of wealthy people deserve preferential treatment.
From Politico:
"These are smart, articulate people, who don't have a scintilla of Washington about them," said Matt Bennett of the centrist Democratic group Third Way, which has been helping the families navigate D.C. "But they virtually cannot be denied a meeting. There are not many groups of people that can get a meeting with any senator they want, whenever they want."The Third Way think-tank looks like a well-funded liberal front group pretending to be a bridge between the left and the right. Soon after Adam Lanza went berserk in December, killing first-graders and school personnel, Third Way co-founders Mark Bennett and Jon Cowan wrote an op-ed in the Washington Post. The topic? How Democrats should use various "forces and events" to seize the day.
... the Newtown families, political novices just a few months ago, are proving to be savvy, effective advocates as they promote the gun legislation that has finally begun to move through the Senate. The families are well-educated, and many are well-off. They have been polished and sharp on TV. They're mostly non-political, but quite accomplished in their own fields. With access to money and media, they're using persistence, visibility - and, most all, their unique moral authority - to help prod Senate action. They also have their own lobbyists - several of them, in fact.Let me get this straight. The well-off Newtown families get experienced leftist political operators to guide them through the legislative process because of "their unique moral authority." "

Except if yours is a White child murdered by a Black gangbanger or a "hispanic" drunk driver.
