Is NRA a special interest? AARP?

Nonsense, these are groups of AMERICAN'S lobbying the gov't for their needs. I hate the phrase special interests. It's so stupid and unthinking a term.
Special interest as in not 100% in the interest of the people that elected them to their friggin position.

And yes, NRA is a special interest, AARP is a special interest. They have an agenda that they push that is not necessarily the same agenda as the populace so they have "special interests". :0
