Reid slams GOP 'puppets of the NRA'

The Hill reports:

Senate Minority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) slammed Republicans on Monday over the lack of movement on expanding gun purchase background checks, saying that he's talking to his colleagues about what can be done.
"I've started to reach out to senators in talking about what can be done to advance the cause of background checks while Republicans are in charge for the next year or so," the Democratic leader said. "One thing is clear, to pass background checks, we need Republicans to stop acting as puppets of the [National Rifle Association]."

Harry Reid is calling people "puppets". We are sure Harry's sons know all about being a "puppet".
