As an Okie, I like Inhoff a lot more than Coburn right now.

Biden’s running around telling people zero is going to use an Executive Order to take care of the issue.

No one’s stopped him so far with all his use of EOs so he probably sees no reason he can’t.

Not so fast, now they are advancing another bill, this one banning the .50 cal semi -auto Barrett Sniper Rifle.( I guess Obama has bad dreams about that weapon?)

Thank you Mike Lee and Orrin Hatch, from a NRA and GOA lifer. Gun control isn’t about guns, it’s about control!

But let's face it. We're never going to be able to let our guard down entirely, until the 113th Congress adjourns in December, 2014.

No, not even then! We have to always stay vigilant.

In the case of Virginia, Sen. Warner voted correctly against Feinstein and Lautenberg, but incorrectly on the other 5 votes. Kaine was wrong on all votes. FUSK.

Wonder if GOA and NRA have as good of a "Fax Your Congress Rep" machine as NumbersUSA (immigration) does. I get several emails, through out the day, with pre-worded (or from scratch) free faxes to send to my Reps.

Wish there was a group, or groups, that would combine the two issues (2nd amendment rights and NO AMNESTY!) - especially since Boston - and allow millions to send faxes. (Not that DC is listening.)

The GOA is the best ever organization. They force the NRA not to compromise on this.

If you can join this group then please consider it. They’re very effective.

Also just to say that Deb Fischer has been a nice surprise, She has been very solid but quiet. I hope she continues this way but i’d love to hear more from her?!

RE :”Moreover, if Obama tries to make another run at gun control, pro-gun senators are prepared to go on the offensive and offer amendments to back Harry Reid down. These provisions would include pro-gun amendments that:
+ Cut Justice Department funds for states with gun confiscation and registration (i.e., New York, Connecticut, Maryland);
+Take another run at passing the Thune-Cornyn-Vitter national concealed carry reciprocity amendment;
+Provide that no veteran can lose any constitutional right without a court order.”

Celebration 2nd Amendment ping!
I love these poison pill amendments!

Pulled for now. It can come up again when the grabbers think the moment is right, Do not let your guard down.

We are always just one more mass shooting away from more gun control, but this requires strong dem majorities. Don’t ever, never vote for a dem.

There are 31 Senators who voted right on BOTH of these key votes, and this is who they are:

I'm thankful to everyone who helped with this, but I have to wonder about any national lobbying organization that sends out press releases with the incorrect names of the senators who help them. Seems like amateur hour.

You’re right.

Last Wed., Larry Pratt was in our town helping raise funds for the recall of one of our gun grabbers.
