Obama campaign tries to get stations to refuse NRA ads

Story here, with links to the campaign's letter and NRA's response.

The letter is pretty thin, not much more than (1) the Washington Post denies what NRA argues, so it must be a pack of lies and (2) the ads say Obama "supports" things ... OK, he *supported* them in the past, but it's not on his webpage at this moment.

When will people learn? Upon hearing "you should not be allowed to see this," every real American feels a Pavlovian urge to see it at once, even if it's a Sanskrit manual on chariot repair.
