According to the American Conservative Union's rating ---

Senator Kay Bailey Hutchison's lifetime conservative rating is

91

Now how much higher would you like her to be in order to call her voting record conservative ????

She's running for governor, trying to paint herself as tougher than the grandma with lots of names.

That would be Carole Keeton McClellan Rylander Strayhorn Chafee McCain Hagel.

She'd be the wealthiest woman in Texas if we were dumb enough to permit alimony payments.

Do the Democrats believe self-defense is a civil right? Their party passed gun control laws in the Jim Crow South in a bid to strengthen "white supremacy." They don't really believe in equality for minorities. Why blacks can't bear and keep arms in the District Of Columbia is a very good question indeed.

It's not clear that she's running for Governor.

It's becoming less clear every day. Not only is Mitch McConnell dangling the #3 Senate spot, but Bill Clements (first two-term Republican governor since Reconstruction) wrote an editorial in the Dallas Morning News today saying that a primary fight between Hutchison and Perry could devastate the GOP in Texas.

The big guns are telling Kay Bailey to stay in the Senate.

I think every woman in the District of Columbia should have the ability to protect herself in her home," she said.

Making it a womens issue I like that. ;-)

No Second Amendment rights, even for a Senator. My, how far we've fallen!

A Senator is a citizen.

No special rights to them.

Especially to them.

I hope this measure goes through.

"The men, though?" she continued. "Screw 'em! They're like unborn babies: on their own and not my concern!"

Especially as a Senator! There shall be no royalty! Kay is my Senator and she has often avoided taking a stand......I do wonder why she is now taking the constitutional position?

Hey Kay.....what took so long? Did ya just stumble over an old dusty copy of the United States Constitution/Bill of Rights?

This is surprising! I always had Ms Kay-Bailey pegged as a do nothing but smile for photographers type.

My opinion of her has just risen about a thousand per cent!

Yes, Sarce--I've seen it! Kinda took my breath away!

Now, we just need to get her on the exact right page---Second Amendment Rights for all!

No more of this "Women should be able to protect themselves in their own homes" BS---We need to get her to change that to

"A well-regulated militia being necessary to the security of a free state, the right of the people to keep and bear arms SHALL NOT BE INFRINGED".

Yeah, George. This was in our morning paper. I don't think George Allen has ever done anything against the Second. Anything he's involved with has got to be good. Besides, we're watching him to make sure and he knows it. KBH couldn't be in better company. Now I sound like a commercial, sorry.

Hey, SASTER! Could you ask your good governor to rub a bit of his good sense off on our good Senator? Looks like just a bit of a push is all that is needed at this point!

I'm hoping she listens. While I'm sure she'd make a fine governor, we need conservative women in the Senate. Nearly all of them there are liberals or "moderates."
