They are in PDF, I opened and pasted them into a single page. I have been unable to convert them into a format that I can post here

If the PDF's were created from a text based application, such as a word processing program, like Word, you can use the the text select tool to copy the text, which you can then past into a post here on FR. However if you got them as an image, or scaned them in and pasted the image into a PDF document, there is no easy way to recover the text.

Where did you get them? If they exist on the web, even an image, you can just post the URL to where you got them from. If you have access to web accessable storage, many ISPs provide some of this, you can FTP the file to that storage and post the link to that.

I got them as e-mail attachments.

Received from directly from Sen. John Ensign's staff. (R-NV)

I will be happy to forward them to anyone who is more web savvy than I am.

They expose a real problem with the amendments, they give the anti's success in getting the Consumer Product Safety Commission a role in determining gun sales!

Tried to post it to my own site, FTP took several minutes.

But then I could not get a working link, VERY frustrating!

Guess it will all be visible on Thomas in the morning, but I sure wanted to post it after going to so much trouble to get them.

I want to publicly thank senator Ensign's staff gal, Lindsay Lovlien.
She not only called me back, she took the trouble to scan the documents and e-mail them to me after I am sure it was time for her to go home!

John Ensign voted AGAINST the Boxer-Kohl amendments!

I forwarded the PDF files to NRA, CCRKBA, and the web-master for this site.
