Retired Lt. Col. Oliver North said Saturday that he will not serve a second term as the president of the National Rifle Association amid inner turmoil in the gun-rights group.

In a statement read to members of the group Saturday, North said he believes a committee should be set up to review the NRA's finances. North was not present at the meeting when the statement was read by Richard Childress, the NRA's first vice president.

His announcement came after an effort by some members to force out top executive Wayne LaPierre, who has long been the public face of the group. North, best known for his role in the Iran-Contra scandal of the 1980s, is nearing the end of his first one-year term. His announcement that he will not serve a second term is a clear sign that his efforts to force out LaPierre have failed.

"Our enemies have sunk to new lows," LaPierre said, blasting Gov. Andrew Cuomo of New York, where regulators have scrutinized NRA operations.

Ah! That’s too bad.

He and LaPierre should settle their differences with pistols at dawn. You know, the whole 'eat your own dog food' thing.

So who will be the next washed up old troll to take the position
