Are Livingston County Republicans in training for the Michigan Militia? Are they planning a military coup for the fall? Or are they all getting ready to volunteer for a George Bush "October surprise" attack on Iran?
Why else are they planning a "shooting clinic" for women members?
Livingston County Republican Party Chair Allan Filip reminded members in a recent email (sent to me by a friend who wishes not to be named) of the July 12 shooting clinic.
There's nothing wrong with a clinic on how to shoot guns. It's perfectly legal, and many people enjoy shooting guns.
It just seems like a bizarre way for a political party to spend its monthly meeting.
At our meetings, Livingston County Democrats like to screen important documentaries, invite in interesting speakers, or learn about potential ballot issues. Afterward, we can discuss the ins and outs of the issue over a cup of coffee and a piece of cake.
I imagine that's a much more interesting conversation than bragging about how many times you hit the bull's eye or the figure's heart.
But that's just me.

Yes, Judy, and you also like to head over to the Windsor Casino for your fundraisers.
That's hilarious. Heading to a foreign country for your events. You people are priceless.
Yes, the insular, myopic viewpoint of refusing to acknowledge that there is a world outside American borders sure has served the GOP well.
Judy, that is a very ignorant post. First of all, we have something in our Bill of Rights called the Second Amendment. Secondly, many democrats like Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton are staunch anti-Constitutionalists. It is a very political issue, and continues to be as long as snobs like you look down on us shooters as seen by that "Michigan Militia" comment.
First, the party never went to Windsor for a fundraiser. Second, many people go to Windsor instead of Detroit because it’s a smoke free casino. There are many people with health problems who cannot deal with deadly secondhand smoke.
I have to agree with Judy: is it is a bizarre way for a political party to spend its monthly meeting. Sen. Obama and Clinton are “staunch anti-Constitutionalists.” Wow, that’s a brazen lie even for you.
