1) Tax Reductions HR 1836 - 5/23/01: The senate voted to return $1.35 trillion in surplus taxes and to eliminate the marriage tax penalty. |
|
|
|
|
|
2) 2nd Amendment Right to Bear Arms Rockefeller's National Rifle Association grade is "F" Jay Wolfe's NRA grade is an "A" . Rockefeller voted to ban several guns in the so-called "Crime Bill" in 1994. He voted to force law-abiding citizens to wait 7 days before purchasing a gun on June 28, 1991 (S.1241). Rockefeller also voted to mandate locks on all handguns on July 21, 1998 (S.2260). |

|
|
|
3)Ban Partial Birth Abortion S. 1692 - 10/21/99: Rockefeller has voted repeatedly for this gruesome abortion procedure in which the doctor partially delivers a live baby before killing her. Don't you have to question Rockefeller's judgment on every other issue if he can't get this one right? Jay Wolfe is Pro-Life, Rockefeller is not. |
|
|
|
|
|
4)Preservation of Social Security and Medicare HR 4577 - 6/29/00: Senate vote to create a Medicare and Social Security "lockbox" preserving year-to-year surpluses in these areas from use in other government programs. |
|
|
|
|
|
5) Ban Federal Funding of Pornography HR 2466 - 8/5/99: Rockefeller voted to spend your tax money on so-called "art" through the National Endowment for the Arts. One "artist" submerged a crucifix in a jar of urine. Other funding went to a theater that portrays Jesus and his disciples as homosexuals having sex on stage. |
|
|
|
|
|
6) Preventing Big Government Programs Rockefeller wants to socialize healthcare and put 1/7 of the economy under government control. On 4-19-94, Rockefeller said, "We are going to push through this health care reform regardless of the views of the American people." Aren't West Virginians Americans, too? |
|
|
|
|
|
7) Missile Defense Shield S 1878 - 9/9/98: Senate vote to make it national policy to deploy a system to protect U.S. territory from incoming missiles "as soon as is technologically possible." |

Are you a registered voter in WV?
Here's an issue for you.
Help is on the Jay.
That would be real free trade, not the phony WTO, NAFTA, open borders, uninspected Mexican trucks loaded with who knows what (or who) globalist first "free trade".
You need to be at EVERY single NRA dinner in the state that you can possibly attend. There are many union members in WV that Rockefeller needs who are also NRA. A significant number went with GW Bush over algore this time around. They chose their gun rights over blind union Democrat loyalty. He has even stronger support among these people now. You can grab onto W's coattails and run with them.
You also need to be in touch with W's people ASAP to get W to come here and make an appearance or two. W owes the WV Republican Party and voters for coming through for him here.
Also, get out to the Trap & Skeet ranges in the state at the registered shoots to meet these voters. At the WV State Trapshooting Championship each summer, thousands of obviously pro-gun voters will be there. A politician that misses this event is missing a golden opportunity, yet I personally don't recall a major political candidate ever appearing there. When I was a kid, my dad was the state champ in Trapshooting several times and I worked at the shoot, so I would probably know and remember if someone had. No wonder the GOP hasn't won more here.
Link to the WV page of the Amateur Trapshooting Association.
On the page will be found links with valuable contact info to all the Trap clubs in the state, as well as info re the State Shoot. The State Shoot will be held July 11-15 in Brooke Co., at the Sportsman & Farmer Assn, McAdoo Ridge. The importance of "preaching to the choir" at events like these is this: Even avid sportsmen and many NRA members often don't bother to vote. By attending numerous NRA dinners and shooting competitions, you will begin to see a lot of these same people more than once, building familiarity and credibility with them. It can be the difference between someone agreeing with you, and someone agreeing with you and actually getting motivated enough to go out to vote for you. These votes are the KEY to the election, I truly believe it. You'll get the Chamber of Commerce vote for sure, but it will be the pro-gun bloc that will win the election.
I hope that you, Shelley and the other GOP candidates take advantage of this strategy as well. Where else are they going to meet as many pro-gun Democrats than at the ranges and NRA dinners? They must win a certain percentage of these Dems over to win ANY election here in WV, and these are the best places to find them. They made the difference for W, and will again this year if the cards are played.
Let's win!
Also, congrats Jay W. for you win! Got to get this man outta here while we still have a state!
Good luck Jay......Stay Safe !!
Given the fact that W.Va has one of the lowest immigration rates in the nation (96% of the population of European ancestry, and 80% is native born), it's probably a non-issue in his state. He has more of a problem with yellow-dog whites voting Democrat because grandpa did, rather than illegal aliens voting Dem because Rockefeller panders to them.
That being said, I doubt Mr. Wolfe is in favor of open borders. Also, our Republican nominee here in Illinois is solidly for American soveignity, and running against an ultra-liberal nut as well. ;-)
