| Post subject: | Today's Anti-Gun Vote in the Senate |
It's a damn barrage of shit every day now. The anti-gunners have momentum on their side at the moment. I'm getting pop-ups on my internet browser telling me to support Mary Landrieu because 85% of Louisianians support gun registration and that I should call her to ask her to support it. You tell me how in the fuck they came up with 85% of Louisianans want federal gun registration? They just made it up, but they are posting it everywhere. This add is apparently being financed by Michael Bloomberg's anti-gun organization Mayors against crime or some shit. In case you boys aren't keeping up, it's about to get real. Here's today's email from the national assc. of gun rights. It's Louisiana specific, but regardless of where you are, call your senators today! Even some of our good republican senators are folding like a cheap suit. At 4 p.m. today, the United States Senate will vote on the Toomey-Manchin “Background Check” (NATIONAL GUN REGISTRATION) Bill as an amendment to S.649. It could all come down to just one or two votes. That’s why it’s absolutely vital you call both of your United States Senators IMMEDIATELY. You can reach them at: Sen. Mary Landrieu: (202) 224-5824 Sen. David Vitter: (202) 224-4623 Please urge them to vote no on EVERY anti-gun amendment coming up today, and make sure they know you’ll be watching their every move. You see, the vote on Toomey-Manchin will just be the beginning. Senator Reid knows you and I are keeping the pressure on. He knows the vote will come down to the wire. In fact, it could still go either way. But as I’ve told you before, Senate Majority Leader Reid is in a mad rush to ram something -- anything -- through the Senate. So he’s bringing many amendments to the floor, including not just the Feinstein Gun Ban and a Magazine Ban amendment, but also a handful of “sweetener” amendments designed to hand supposedly “pro-gun” Republicans and Democrats an excuse to vote “yes.” Why? Well, at this point, the gun-grabbers don’t believe Speaker John Boehner is going to put up a serious fight in the U.S. House. Instead, the House just might add an amendment or two -- sending legislation to an Obama-controlled Conference Committee to “finalize” and dress up with all the anti-gun goodies they’ve been wanting since day one . . . They know once this snowball gets rolling, it could turn into an avalanche. So if the extremely dangerous Toomey-Manchin National Gun Registration Bill isn’t the ticket, Senator Reid has plan “B” waiting in the wings. That’s why it’s critical you urge your Senators to oppose EVERY amendment Senate Majority Harry Reid is bringing before the Senate today. But with time running out, it’s critical you pick up the phone and call IMMEDIATELY. There’s no time to waste. For Freedom, Dudley Brown Executive Vice President P.S. At 4 p.m. today, the United States Senate will vote on the Toomey-Manchin “Background Check” (NATIONAL GUN REGISTRATION) Bill as an amendment to S.649. It could all come down to just one or two votes. That’s why it’s absolutely vital you call both of your United States Senators, and urge them to vote no on EVERY anti-gun amendment coming up today.

Interesting! You think there is any connection with the "republican" senator getting a poisoned letter from an "active of frequent letter writer"!!!! Maybe they are hoping they deter a few from calling thier senators in hopes to swing that vote???? |
