Space cadet: Cmdr. Mark Kelly warns of Colo. ‘gun lobby’ taking ‘electoral revenge’

Commander Mark Kelly may be an authority on astronomical matters, but when it comes to the Second Amendment, he’s lost in space:

Kelly’s message:

For decades, the gun lobby has threatened electoral revenge on public officials who advocate for meaningful solutions to reduce gun violence. But we can stop that trend — right here, right now — in Colorado. Contribute to Americans for Responsible Solutions today to help us stop the recall of the two Colorado State Senators who helped pass background checks and a high capacity magazine ban.

This isn’t his first foray into Colorado politics. About two months after he and wife Gabby Giffords launched the goofily-named Americans for Responsible Solutions to combat the “ideological fringe” — aka proponents of the right to self-defense — Kelly went to Colorado to testify in favor of gun control legislation.

But Kelly’s ill-founded pleas failed to impress us then, and they’re definitely not persuading us now.

Imagine that.
