Guess again, Pat.
Apparently Toomey is feeling the heat on his Facebook page... apparently he’s getting smoked over there. That would explain the frantic explanantion-fest.
Sen. Pat Toomey (R-Pa.) told reporters on a conference call moments ago that his compromise bill with Sen. Joe Manchin (D-W.Va.) on gun background checks “doesn’t change in any way” his “conservative record or views.”................
Actually the people that you represent get to decide if this changes your conservative record. IT DOES!
And by doing so, Senator Dumbass, you've placed yourself in the position of being a tool for Satan's party, while bargaining away the 2nd Amendment rights of those who had such hopes that you'd properly represent them.
His office lines are going straight to voicemail. Left my name and number with a message I voted for him, I am not happy about his backing this legislation and I will be voting for his competitor as he will NOT be getting my vote for senator, or anything for that matter, again.
“I don’t consider criminal background checks to be gun control,”
Yeah, and amnesty is not really amnesty, right, Senator?
Yet another RINO.
He got a nasty e-mail from this person. All here - hit him hard.
Yet another traitor to the oath he took.
““People are going to have a wide range of opinions,” he said. “I don’t think trying to keep guns out of the hands of dangerous criminals is gun control… I don’t expect everyone to agree with me.””
But the democrats are not tring to keep guns out of the hands of “dangerous criminals”.
“Dangerous criminals” Steal their guns or otherwise obtain them illegally to help remove any record.
Democrats are simply trying to criminalized & abridge the right to keep and bare arms.
I’ve already called Pat’s Scranton office, and the gentleman couldn’t explain how this “deal” would have prevented a single killing in America, let alone Sandy Hook. Bob
pat forgot to mention that his little gun control bill allows a shrink to add you to the NICS no gun list at will and no requirement to notify you. That and the fact that private sales at gunshows will now require a background check. Other than those two little jewels nothing will change.
Of course, Toomey’s deal with the devil is that the democrat’s bill gets to the floor—no filibuster. Then the rats just force party discipline and pass a terrible bill. We have a small enough majority in the house that I am very concerned.
Toomey and his collaborators claim, “well, we voted against the democrats bill!” But they made sure it made it to the floor.
Our R’s in Washington are seeming especially spineless on this one.
Too bad tap dancing has fallen out of style.
There are about 600 amateurs at the top of the federal government who do it every chance they get.
Don’t bet on it. Come election time, we’ll see what gets changed.
The fundamental question is whether the people are subjects of a government with absolute power or free Americans who may choose whether to give their consent for each government action. If DC does not govern with our consent, then we are stepping into a new phase in America’s history, and it will not be a pretty one.
The GOPe is not long for this world
If you take that vote, Toomey, you have no credibility as an American!
I have no answer to that question other than put people in office who have integrity and take their Constitutional oaths seriously, and by doing so, uphold those righteous and Constitutional laws. Bad people make bad laws and ignore laws that infringe on their powers.
“Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other.” John Adams
