Although the Republicans of Illinois have been vocal about the need to throw Mark Kirk under the bus because of his staunch LIBERAL anti - Conservative voting record, people like Juan Mc Cain and Republican Chairman Michael Steele and the new Illinois Republican Party Chairman Pat Brady could care less what "WE THE PEOPLE" think. I will post some of the records of all of these RINO's.

Do not forget these other important FACTS:

Mark Kirk supports the unconstitutional “Hate-Crime” legislation. Mark also intends to disarmlaw abiding Americans. In fact here are some of KIRK’S record on other key issues.

In 2005, “Citizens for Global Solutions” gave Representative Kirk a rating of “A.”

In 2006, the National Rifle Association assigned Representative Kirk a grade of “F.”

Based on information available in 2006, Sierra Club chose to endorse Representative Kirk.

Based on information available in 2006, Planned Parenthood chose to endorse Representative Kirk.

Representative Kirk voted their preferred position of Brady Campaign to Prevent Gun Violence 100% in 2002.

Representative Kirk supported the interests of the NARAL 100% in 2005.

Representative Kirk supported the interests of the National Council of La Raza 100% in 2004.

And lastly Mark Kirk a veteran himself, has a problem with honoring and supporting our Veterans.

Illinois’ Troops & Veterans Deserve Better Than Mark Kirk

Mccain is against cap and trade, so its extremely stupidfying that Mccain will endorse a candidate that don’t vote the same way he does. Mccain seem more concerned for someone’s personality than of a person’s politics.

Mccain like x person personally, so even if their politics are different, he will endorse him/her

Kirk is a representative from a socially liberal district and his voting reflects that. He’s a rino, no doubt.

People here who still believe that the GOP will make huge gains in 2010, need only look at the current status of this pathetic collection of pissants who only call themselves “leaders”.

Our best hope will be independent Conservatives who have no connection with the GOP what so ever. Anything McNasty or tin-man Steele says or does will have very little impact on this coming election. This election will be all about local appeal in each individual district. In fact, any “endorsement” from any RINO will be the kiss of death.

McCain isn’t a RINO. He’s pro-life, pro-gun rights, and pro-spending cuts, unlike Kirk. McCain endorsed someone who usually disagrees with him, like State Sen. Matt Murphy and State Rep. Jo Ann Osmond.
