It’s NOT about hunting...IT’S ABOUT TAKING AMERICANS GUNS AWAY..

Voinovich absolutely hates guns.

Let’s go! Research begins now. Screen shots of everything you find. We got rid of Jones, we can easily get rid of this one too. Damn it, why do we always wait until after the fact? We were so busy with health care we let this one slip by. That’s their game plan and we fall right into it. DAMN! I am so mad right now.

“[A]lmost all gun control legislation is constitutionally fine. And if the Court is right, then fundamentalism does not justify the view that the Second Amendment protects an individual right to bear arms. “ Cass

Excellent.
This is a repost from an earlier thread. We have MUCH to fear.

The envirowhackos have just dumped over 600 new species to the EPA they want put on the endangered species list. They have more waiting. These things need to be acted upon within 30 or 60 days, forgot which. This is an attempt to “overwhelm” the system allowing for action by the REGULATORY czar, Cass Sunstein, who thinks trees should be represented in court.
If your property is anywhere these freaks want to enact EPA regs, guess what? They don’t give a tinker’s damn whose property it is. It will be under government control.
And if you think you can fight it in court, remember it was SCOTUS which made it possible for them to consider CO2 a toxic hazard so they could over-regulate industry out of business.
It was also SCOTUS which declared private property is no longer sacrosanct allowing the use of eminent domain to be abused by anyone with a few bucks aimed in the right direction.
This whole agenda is just evil. E V I L

Nope they are not even attempting to hide the true nature of their agenda. To many Americans 1)don’t even have a clue as to different political systems. 2)Live in a bubble thinking it’s just the political junkies fighting.
3) will happily go along, thinking their lives will not change.
If we don’t win this one...THEY are in for a rude awakening.

Does this mean that if one animal tries to eat or attack another animal they can sue? My guess is they will have an exemption since no human will be involved, but then again more money for the lawyers who will represent them.

that means we can use him for fundraising

How can we do that with any credibility when "our" guys voted to confirm him?

[Hatch??? WTF???] Hatch has always been limp. Look at his recent paens to Good Buddy Teddy.

There is a saying in Washington DC:

"Don't count your Hatches before they've chickened."

But, hey. He is going to be his own "god" someday.

Will it be on the planet Kolob, or some other planet?

My wife is wonderful, smart, up-to-date on events and conservative but she has so much faith in the American people that her confidence that this will all "turnout OK" can't be shaken.

I pray she's right.

I have my doubts. Bad things *do* happen to good people when things get out of control. Like now.

Bob Bennett is up for re-election and has competition, I doubt he voted the same way as Hatch.

Please don’t bring religious wars into this. This is Caeser’s domain, not God’s IMHO.

Plus it’s just not FRiendly.

That handful of RINOS also voted for genocide ~ Lugar is reverting to his basest roots and is going wild. He's taking the others down with him.

Absolutely no problem dealing with them.

Tell her to pray hard everyday for America. I am praying like there is no tommorow. I hope God is listening to us.

They voted not to filibuster not to confirm him. Some Senators do not believe that a Presidential nominee should be filibustered.

See who votes for him in the final vote.

The usual suspects, less McCain.

Bennett (R-UT)

Collins (R-ME)

Hatch (R-UT)

Lugar (R-IN)

Snowe (R-ME)

Voinovich (R-OH)

Why don’t these people just get honest and admit they’re democrats?

3 democrats voted nay.

I'm predicting Olympia Snowe was one. Just a wild guess.

The RINOs will vote to confirm. That’s pretty much a given.

When I called Cornyn's office, his staff told me that Cass Sunstein had written a "personal" letter to the senator explaining away all his published quotes......

Am I the only one that gets a whiff of political funk?
