Don Bye likes to spin the truth. In his Jan. 24 column titled “Gun allowance,” Bye made the following statement in an attempt to denigrate the NRA and its elected official grading system:
“All of Minnesota’s federal elected officials are rated either A or F. There is no room for grading in between, no B, no C, no D, just 10 times A or F.”
This is a completely false statement, as the NRA grading system consists of A, B, C, D and F complete with pluses and minuses. It just happens that several of our current federally elected officials warrant F’s from the NRA.
I spoke with Lake Country Echo management personnel and asked that Mr. Bye be given an opportunity to correct this lie about the NRA grading system in his next column. I was told they would inform Mr. Bye of his lie.
Since Mr. Bye has not come forward to correct his lie, it would seem Mr. Bye approves of his lie. As a subscriber and advertiser, I find it extremely disturbing that someone who has been contributing a regular column for several years is allowed to lie and will not come forward to correct his lie.
Therefore, I would suggest that the Lake Country Echo say a permanent goodbye to Mr. Bye, as readers cannot rely on what is said by Mr. Bye. It may very well be a lie.

The NRA has become a well-funded extreme rightwing organization that opposes reasonable gun regulations.
Gee, it's nice to see the Moveon shill got paid.
Our resident Shill must still be a well paid moveon employee, for a while they must not have sent Extreme Nutz his weekly supply of weed because we didn't have to read his lies and defence of libtard lies for several daze I was concernd, I didn't think we'd hear more leftard lies for a while.
It's nice that our paid shill from Soros is back with his DUh underground lies, half truths and completely predictable Intellectual Dishonesty so the realists in the area can continue to see what liberlism really is.
Bravo you lyinhack, be sure to toke up and celebrate!
BTW: there is nothing extreme here other than your transparent attempts to label anyone not to the left of Stalin an extremist.
Wake up, Sleepy. Your whacko script is all disjointed there.
Sleepy, give it up. You aren't even smart enough to recite the most idiotic of the slogans you were programmed from rightwing hate radio.
But poor Nutz thinks his tired lib slogans
Are somehow smart and fresh, perhaps you could come up with something other than "tax the rich" and "Its' for the children".
Not to mention your truly lame attempts to label others extreme for not wanting to pay your slacker way through life.
Now run on back to DUh underground and see what catchy slogans your handlers can come up with for you.
This is Tom Lund's letter. No wonder it is so whackodoodle
It definitely fits his usual half-wit thinking.

Who says stuff like that?
Nutty says, "This is Tom Lund's letter. No wonder it is so whackodoodle."
I submit that Nutty would have to triple his IQ to get to the level of a half-wit.
Nuts is typical
Nuts is a typical lefty. He attacks the author of the letter with personal slanders yet offers NO real argument, just liberal bs. That's pretty pathetic nuts.
Good letter Tom, the left uses dishonest rhetoric all of the time to confuse it's low-information voters. Thank you for calling the liar out. Keep it up.

Tom Lund is all unhinged calling Don Bye a liar
In fact, Don Bye was correct in saying, “All of Minnesota’s federal elected officials are rated either A or F. There is no room for grading in between, no B, no C, no D, just 10 times A or F.” ALL Minnesota members of Congress were given either an A or an F, and nothing in between. The only exception was that Franken wasn't rated. Nobody was given a B, C or D. http://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2012/12/19/us/politics/nra.html
If Tom Lund knew any better, he should be accused of going over the top (once again) for calling Don bye a liar. But to his "credit", I doubt he knows any better.
"Nobody was given a B, C or
"Nobody was given a B, C or D. "
Did you ever think maybe they didnt deserve a B, C or D?
Its gotta be miserable bein you Nutty!
Should the Echo say a permanent goodbye to Tom Lund?
Based on his unhinged accusations, with no basis, calling Don Bye a liar, maybe we should suggest that the Lake Country Echo say a permanent goodbye to Tom Lund, as readers cannot rely on what is said by Tom Lund. It may very well be a lie, or, more likely, just anonther of his unhinged idiotic rants.
On the other hand, everyone should have the right to say stupid things. After all, his idiotic rants are entertaining. And what is even more entertaining, are the clueless knuckle-draggers who actually believe the stuff he spews.
If lies were the deciding factor ..
You'd have been gone a long time ago Extreme nutz.
You truly are the leading hack, lier I've ever seen Moveon hire.
Nutty's Lies Are Humorous
In the same post, our village idiot Nutty disputes his own claim. Nutty doesn't have the brain power to know what end he should eat with, and what end to.....well everyone knows what I mean.
Nutty says, "In fact, Don Bye was correct in saying, “All of Minnesota’s federal elected officials are rated either A or F. There is no room for grading in between, no B, no C, no D, just 10 times A or F.”
Then, in the same paragraph, Nutty says, "The only exception was that Franken wasn't rated."
Nutty, you are wrong for two reasons; 1. Don Bye was wrong. There is room for grading in between. Other Congress people received grades in between. 2. You admit that not all 10 Congress people received either A or F.
Nutty is a non-thinker
Nutty is not capable of logic and analytical thinking.

That can't be true Tj
according to the Moveone shill "no one is going to take our guns"
Then again nutz has been known to ignore the lies of his handlers and defend the hypocrites of the left at every turn.

Stop it, you paranoid gun-nuts! Those black helicopters aren't

And once again Nutz is oblivious to his
own lies and ignores the reality of his lib pals taking guns and invading privacy.
and of course he's backpedaled on his lie about "they're not going to take your guns" now it's "they're only going to take the scary guns"

You gun-nuts are acting out as paranoid tin-foil hat fanatics
Take a fricken pill and settle down, you whackos. Nobody's comin' to get ya. You are behaving very stupidly.
Poor Nutz , so out of touch
she still believes her masters at DUh underground and Moveon in spite of her lies being shown for what they are.
typical liblies and lefty propaganda with a large dollop of hypocrisy..
Back to sleep, sleepy, you have said enough stupid stuff today
If you Three Stooges weren't acting out in three-part harmony, you would be embarrasssed at how crazy you nut-jobs appear. But then, neither of you are smart enough to see it.
The only stupid one here is Nutz
with all of her blatant hypocrisy and instant defense of liberalism along with all of it's criminal ideals.
we're still waiting for you to explain why tax dodging is good as long as it's a libtard doing it.
BTW: I hear your chicago hero JJ and his wife may be "guests of the state" for a while, I have no doubt you'd vote for them anyway as long as they have a D by their name.
LMAO Sleepr!
