    Default the proof about Pat Toomey

    For anyone on the fence about Pat Toomey please read this. It seems that Michael Bloomberg has rewarding Pat Toomey for his hard work. my guess this was agreed to before hand (from Apr) forgive me if someone already posted this....

    I think Michael Bloomberg should mind his own damn business & stay out of PA politics. I'm still disappointed in Mr. Toomey. I will never compromise on this issue & our elected reps should follow suit. Give the Democraps an inch & they take 10 yards. Happens all the time.

    In my opinion Mr. Toomey has two options. Either retire from politics or become a Democrat. I do not think he has much of a chance being re-elected as a Republican.

    I am also an independent and my fear that as these fake poles (done by left wing groups) and most likely boosted by Barry Obama voters will scare those more chickenshit crooks like Toomey.

    On top of that i have seen no movement by the NRA (i am a member, just not a happy one right now) because he is still an A rated NRA Senator. Is there anyone here in the NRA (board member) That can explain when he is going to get a new report card?

    Thanks

    on re-edit i found this. It is still not enough. NRA Please fix this or i am moving to other groups to give my ammo money to

    Dear Senator,

    I am writing regarding the National Rifle Association’s position on several firearms-related proposals under consideration in the Senate.

    S. 649, the “Safe Communities, Safe Schools Act of 2013”, introduced on March 21, contains a number of provisions that would unfairly infringe upon the Second Amendment rights of law-abiding gun owners. This legislation would criminalize the private transfer of firearms by honest citizens, requiring friends, neighbors and many family members to get government permission to exercise a fundamental right or face prosecution. The NRA is unequivocally opposed to S. 649.

    In addition, the NRA will oppose any amendments offered to S. 649 that restrict fundamental Second Amendment freedoms; including, but not limited to, proposals that would ban commonly and lawfully owned firearms and magazines or criminalize the private transfer of firearms through an expansion of background checks. This includes the misguided “compromise” proposal drafted by Senators Joe Manchin, Pat Toomey and Chuck Schumer. As we have noted previously, expanding background checks, at gun shows or elsewhere, will not reduce violent crime or keep our kids safe in their schools. Given the importance of these issues, votes on all anti-gun amendments or proposals will be considered in NRA’s future candidate evaluations.

    Rather than focus its efforts on restricting the rights of America’s 100 million law-abiding gun owners, there are things Congress can do to fix our broken mental health system; increase prosecutions of violent criminals; and make our schools safer. During consideration of S. 649, should one or more amendments be offered that adequately address these important issues while protecting the fundamental rights of law-abiding gun owners, the NRA will offer our enthusiastic support and consider those votes in our future candidate evaluations as well.

    We hope the Senate will replace the current provisions of S. 649 with language that is properly focused on addressing mental health inadequacies; prosecuting violent criminals; and keeping our kids safe in their schools. Should it fail to do so, the NRA will make an exception to our standard policy of not “scoring” procedural votes and strongly oppose a cloture motion to move to final passage of S. 649.

    Sincerely,
    Chris W. Cox

    I don't know for sure, but I am betting that they release the grades at one time during the year. I am also betting that the next time they grade him, he will have a "B" or a "C" rating, not an "F" as many might want.

    I, personally, would NOT say in the letter that the NRA wants this or that... I would say I want this or that.... the NRA does NOT have voting rights in this state and with you saying that you want it there may be a little more "force" behind it.... again... this is just MY opinion...

    All the proof I needed regarding Toomey is the fact that he worked with ChuckU Schumer. EVERYONE knows Schumer is anti-gun. Toomey is either an idiot or he knew what he was doing in working with Schumer. I'm not sure which is worse.

    I have sent his office several messages suggesting that he is a clueless rookie who got snookered by the Socialists (let's stop calling them 'Democrats".) I think that should be our talking point - an idiot has less appeal to everyone, while some will hail a traitor. He has put his senate seat into play, which is exactly what the socialists wanted. He is an idiot.
    Boy, I say boy, you're reaching the limits of my medication!
