Today sucks. CFR has been signed by Bush, and the RINOS and RATS got a big win. Now, I am PO'ed, and hoping for the courts to do the right thing, which is NEVER a 100% sure thing.
I say it's time for some paybacks.
I'm not a rich man. I do not have a lot of money, but one of the biggest RINO's, is a guy named Fred Upton, a congresscritter from Southwest Michigan. He is from a GOP leaning seat that went for Bush and has some strong conservative areas. Upton is pro-abort, voted for CFR, and is a real gun grabber as well. MCRGO will not endorse him, and the NRA didn't endorse him either.
Upton has a PRIMARY challenge from a strong conservative. Current State Senator Dale Shugars. In fact, he's almost too conservative for me on some issues. I'll take that over a RINO any day of the week. He's 100% pro-gun and pro-life. He RIPPED Upton for his CFR vote. This guy was a very good state senator in my state, and will be a good congressman as well. He has experience. He also CAN WIN.
I can not vote for him since I do not live in his district. I do not work for his campaign. This is strictly on an issues basis here, and not a personal favor.
I have just written a $25 check as of RIGHT NOW to this campaign. I encourage all the freepers PO'ed about CFR to do the same. We can make an example out of Fred Upton. This is a tough race, but winnable, especially in a primary. Good luck to Dale Shugars.

I know Shugars can win.

"Last year he voted with Right to Life 75 percent of the time. He opposed a controversial late-term abortion procedure called partial-birth abortion by its opponents, but voted to allow government approval of abortion pills. Shugars has a 100 percent voting record with Right to Life.
"We have never been able to endorse Fred Upton," said Right to Life of Michigan PAC director Larry Galmish. "I wouldn't mind seeing a pro-life candidate in that race.""" Click here
