Brady Campaign: Celebrating Failure

So the latest Brady email begging for money.  This one from the 'Million Mom March' representative, you remember, that group that was a one hit wonder over 16 years ago and then folded into the Brady bunch while under investigation for tax fraud.
This year alone, Brady Campaign advocates created monumental change and action at a time when Americans needed it most. You put in more than 150,000 calls to Congress. That spurred Senator Chris Murphy's history-making filibuster in the Senate to support expanding Brady background checks to all gun sales and Congressman John Lewis's historic sit-in in the House. We supported the first Presidential candidate in history to run on a gun violence prevention platform. And, just last month, the Brady Center capped off a successful year with a historic settlement in a case against an irresponsible gun dealer. This is all because of you!
Let's break this down, shall we?

Which failed

Congressman John Lewis's historic sit-in in the House

Which turned into a laughing stock as it was revealed they were offered pillows, blankets, catered meals, and took shifts while lamenting how hard they had it.

We supported the first Presidential candidate in history to run on a gun violence prevention platform

Who lost. To a Cheeto.

the Brady Center capped off a successful year with a historic settlement in a case against an irresponsible gun dealer.

No mention of that whole 'Lucky Gunner' case where they left the (Brady Campaign employed) litigants holding the bag for $200K in legal fees.  One 'victory' out of the whole 'successful' year.

Yeah.

Celebrating failure.

"the Brady Center capped off a successful year with a historic settlement in a case against an irresponsible gun dealer."
May be a reference to the Badger gun shop which lost a Several Million dollars in multiple lawsuits.
