This organization has bull in it alright, but probably not the intended. The Bull Moose Sportsmen recently was cited by Politico in an article about hunting groups that are advocating for background checks. In a full dress down of the “bull” article, The Washington Times exposed the group’s astroturfing ways, and its connection to none other than Colorado’s Democratic U.S. Senators. Here’s what the Times noted about Bull Moose Sportsmen’s financial ties to Sen. Michael Bennet:
“According to some public filings, the ‘non-partisan nonprofit organization’ gave $17,000 in the 2012 federal election, and all of it went to Democratic Sen. Michael Bennet of Colorado. It spent $117,540 in support of Mr. Bennet in the 2010 cycle. The group raised $354,228 in 2011 and spent $295,863.”
Interestingly enough, Perricone’s Bull Moose partner in crime, Tim Mauck, also served as finance director for Udall in 2012. Not to be left out, Democratic Colorado Governor John Hickenlooper also has ties to Perricone as Hickenlooper appointed Perricone to the Colorado Parks and Wildlife Commission earlier this year. Perricone’s term is up in 2015.
If the BullShit Moose Sportsmen organization wants to provide an outlet for Democrat sportsmen, there’s absolutely nothing wrong with that. But, when an organization portends to be a “nonpartisan” group that represents the “complete” sportsmen’s agenda, we have to call BS.
You can dress a rat up, but it is still a rat. The democrats have been creating fake twitter accounts and now fake sportsman front-end organizations to "convince" people that "gun" groups want gun control. I and others are throwing down the BS flag. I do know several democrats that are pro-gun. But they are honest about it. Enough with the lies. If the ruling elite want to remove our gun rights, then step up and try and overturn the 2nd amendment. But all of these backdoor attempts are nothing but cheap shots that we will continue to fight against.
Always try to present themselves as "non-partisan" Just another lie to promote their Agenda!
Good snooping.
Bull corn…Back door Demonrats…Keep calling them out! Keep exposing this 'partisan garbage' for what it is….I wonder if these deals are where the Colorado Energy Office $252 million went?
