  • California Needs Pro Second Amendment Governor in 2010

    01/18/2009 4:05:47 PM PST · by NRA-CRPA Lifer · 3 replies · 412+ views
    California needs to elect a pro 2nd Amendment Governor in 2010. The GOP had an opportunity to promote one in the 2006 primary election, but chose not to. The time has come for a grass roots effort to promote "Bill Chambers" for California Governor in 2010. He ran in 2006. It says he's a life member of the NRA and CRPA. Let's get someone in California we can elect to support and enforce the 2nd Amendment. His old website is still available at: billchambers4governor.com

    TheDay ^ | 9/16/2007 | Marc Guttman
    When Americans evaluate today's political landscape, most feel something between impotence and disapproval. So, while citizens shake their heads or shrug at the mainstream media's “top tier” presidential candidates, it is extraordinary how many are becoming overjoyed about one lesser covered candidate. Tens-of-thousands have joined the appropriately named Ron Paul Revolution, joining Meetup.com groups, putting up signs, and crossing states to attend rallies. Congressman Ron Paul's genuine message and untarnished record of promoting individual liberty for everyone, a free-market economy of wealth and abundance, and a foreign policy of non-intervention, peace and free trade, has attracted vast support from diverse...

    The Bloomington Pantagraph ^ | June 22, 2007 | Blackwell Thomas
    SPRINGFIELD — He hasn’t announced if he’s running for the presidency yet but that isn’t stopping a group of Illinois Republicans from backing former U.S. Sen. Fred Thompson for the job. Members of Illinois Citizens to Draft Fred Thompson gathered in the Capitol on Friday said they expect the deep-voiced Tennessean to announce for the presidency soon and when he does they want the campaign off to a quick start. To help their cause they have begun urging Illinoisans to go online and register as a Thompson supporter at the group’s website. Former head of the Illinois Republican Party, Donald...

    Buckeye Firearms Association ^ | 10/16/06 | Ken Hanson & Chad Baus
    Buckeye Firearms Association has always described itself as a non-partisan political action committee. Yet in recent days, PAC Chairman Jim Irvine has been in conversation with a reader who takes exception to the endorsement of Democrats. (For an excellent article on the NRA's endorsement of Democrats in national races, click here) In a bit of ironic timing, as this conversation was going on, another Buckeye Firearms Association volunteer was having her own conversation with just the type of Republican this PAC could never endorse...

    Shoot It, Sister! Just saw Sandy Froman speak. For those of you who don't know, that's Sandy Froman-- a Jewish native of San Francisco, graduate of Stanford undergrad and Harvard law, and President of the NRA. She said she gets this reaction a lot: "What's a nice girl like you doing involved with guns?" And she admits she might not have been involved with guns had a 3 a.m. break-in not forced her to get involved. Froman was a 20-something lawyer in L.A. when she woke up to a strange noise at her front door. She looked through the peephole...

    "The right of the citizens to keep and bear arms has justly been considered as the palladium of the liberties of a republic..." --Justice Joseph Story In the wake of another school shooting by another sociopathic teenager, Second Amendment opponents are again out in force attempting to convert the blood of innocents into political capital for gun confiscation. Among the first to demagogue the issue was Brady Campaign gun control advocate Michael Barnes, who condemned the "gun problem" and criticized Congress and President George W. Bush for letting the so-called "assault weapons" ban expire. Million Mom Marcher Kate Havelin howled,...

    State police say a fatal shooting in an Adair County residence will be turned over to a grand jury for investigation, but an indictment would appear unlikely. Someone broke into the residence of Ozie and Evelyn Toole, 14 miles west of Columbia at 3am Sunday. State police say Ozie Toole confronted the intruder and shot him. The Adair County coroner says 21-year-old Stephen Penn of Columbia died at the scene. A police report says entry was gained through a broken window. Investigators say the same residence had been entered earlier in the day when the Tooles were not home and that Penn...

    The State ^ | 12/12/2004 | Lee Bandy
    The Mark-Sanford-for-president buzz won’t die. It keeps rearing its head in the strangest places. Now there’s an extensive “Draft Mark Sanford for President — 2008” Web site. Sanford’s people insist they have nothing to do with it. The owner is Sean Wisnieski, a 19-year-old political science student at Frederick Community College in Frederick, Md. In a disclaimer, he says the site does not “necessarily reflect or represent” the governor. Sanford says he’s “amused,” “curious” and “flattered” — but a run for the White House is the furthest thing from his mind. Often, politicians get carried away by the “bright lights”...

    GREENWOOD, Ind. -- Some neighbors aren't thrilled with the rock in gun dealer Don Davis's front yard promoting armed protection, but he vows that only a judge can make him move it. The 8-foot ornamental rock, in front of the home Davis recently built near this Indianapolis suburb, depicts an eagle and the U.S. flag. The inscription: ``It's better to own a gun and not need it than to need a gun and not own it.''

As announced in December, the SAS event is called Second Amendment Freedoms for Everyone Rally (S.A.F.E.R.). It should come as no surprise that the so-called “Million” Mom...

    Phil Journey, best known as an advocate for gun owners' rights, will take over the state Senate seat being vacated by Nancey Harrington of Goddard. Republican precinct committee members who live in the 26th Senate district, which includes much of western Sedgwick County, chose Journey on Tuesday night. He received 46 votes. Dale Swenson and Dick Kelsey, the other candidates, received 24 and eight votes, respectively. Journey, a lawyer, ran unsuccessfully for the seat in 1988 and lost a bid for a Sedgwick County Commission seat in 2000. Mark Kahrs, chairman of the Sedgwick County Republican Party, said he was...
