The NRA has told Glenn Beck that they are opening an ethics investigation into Grover Norquist, who is up for reelection as a board member at the NRA. Beck said the other day that he wouldn’t remain a member if Norquist gets reelected and apparently had a long conversation with Wayne LaPierre about it:
THE BLAZE – Glenn Beck said Friday that NRA executive vice president Wayne LaPierre told him the organization is opening an ethics investigation into Grover Norquist, the president of Americans for Tax Reform.
“Two days ago I was on the air and I brought up Grover Norquist,” Beck explained on his radio program. “He’s a board member on the NRA, and he’s running for re-election. And I said something then that I meant then and I mean now — that if Grover Norquist remains on the board of the NRA, I don’t believe that I can remain a member of the NRA.”
Beck said he believes the people that Norquist “helps empower” are “agents of influence” for the Muslim Brotherhood.
“Many of the reasons why we’re on the wrong track now in the Middle East is because of the influence of Grover Norquist,” Beck said. “He is a guy that the left used to say was the all mighty and powerful Oz during the Bush administration. I used to mock that. … [But] we heard it so many times that we started doing our own homework on it. … And I’m sorry, he is Oz.”
