It's starting sooner that we thought. Read this and contact your senators now. They will try to add amendments to every bill that come up from now until the election. keep your eye open. >:(

Too late for me though I've expressed distaste to both my RINO and the dumbocrat in MA. They both support our bans here...
I have already expressed my opinion to both about slipping bad law into another just to get it passed! The GOP does the same thing on occasion. Remember how CC was allowed in national parks? The stuck it on the end of another law and Obama wanted the bill badly enough that he signed it even though he disagreed with the amended bill.

Please use your influence to strike the amendment to the Cyber security
bill that calls for a ban on ammunition magazines over 10 rounds. The 77
shootings in anti gun Chicago over the week of the 4th underlines what a
miserable waste of time gun control actually is. The Colorado shooter used
a 100 round magazine which jammed. had he not used that, he would have
simply changed more reliable smaller magazines and more people would have
been killed and injured.

So nice of him to come out that my Ruger 10/22 isn't necessary >:(

Contact my Senator's what?

Probably referring to the apostrophe in the title. ;)

5 million VOTES would.
It might not change their minds, but it would change their job titles.
Then the rest of us would have less reason to contact OUR Senators.

I have voted against both of them, every time they have been up for election. one of them is up for election again.( does not matter which one) i will be voting against her. SF and LA will most likly relect her.
-
Since Gov. Moonbeam approved the over budget, (shock) (Ca. stuck with it), high speed rail, please let us know how it works out.
This is the same State that wants an extra "fee" for dark colored cars, and plasma TV's, because they contribute to Global Warming,,

Simple enough, make the ballots English only.
And they have to be actual names, not nicknames like "Welfare" and Work"
Or get a conservative Republican named Harvey Welfare.

The HS rail will probably never be finished. The state doesn't have the money once the .gov bucks run out! Who's got the 70 billion for completion in CA?
Moonbeam is a twit for taking it on.....

and here in FL. the Libs whined and had their boxers in a helluva bunch when Gov. Rick Scott told the BHO admin to pound sand for a HS rail project.
Gee, a man with common business sense that knew this was a clusterf*** doomed from the start.

If Ca had to elect a guy named Brown , guess they are better off with Jerry than with Willy.

It'll end up like the Big Dig in Boston. Original estimates of 98 billion dollars will more than likely double by the time it's finished but it would be too late to stop by then! Politicians don't like saying they were wrong! They'll never stop......Ray Lahood, like Jerry Brown couldn't manage a liquor store much less a project this large. It's a money pit.....ask Tom Hanks....
Oh! Wait....that was a movie, not reality!

If only it were that simple, but that would engender more sympathy for the mummified one. Have to think of a better way.
Didn't anyone notice that he's about 179 years old and probably poops in his senate seat?

Dear Mr. Bogan:
Thank you for contacting me regarding Second Amendment rights. I appreciate hearing from you.
As you may know, on July 31, 2012, Senator Joe Lieberman (CT-ID) introduced the Cybersecurity Act of 2012 (S. 3414). During consideration of the bill, Senator Frank Lautenberg (D-NJ) introduced Senate Amendment (S.A.) 2575, which would have prohibited the manufacture of high capacity gun magazines. However, when S. 3414 was brought to the Senate floor, Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-NV) used a parliamentary maneuver to block amendments to the bill, effectively shutting down debate. On August 2, 2012, the Senate voted 52 to 46 not to invoke cloture on S. 3414, stopping further action on the bill.
I am deeply saddened and appalled by the senseless and horrific act of violence that recently occurred in Aurora, Colorado. My thoughts and prayers remain with the victims, their families, and the Aurora community.
On July 30, 2012, the alleged gunman was charged in a Colorado state court with 24 counts of first-degree murder-two for each of the 12 people killed. In addition, he was charged with two counts of attempted first-degree murder for each of the 58 people he injured during his shooting spree. Prosecutors have not yet decided if they will pursue the death penalty-the maximum punishment for a first-degree murder conviction in Colorado.
As a supporter of the individual right to keep and bear arms for law abiding citizens, I believe it is my duty to ensure that new laws do not infringe upon Americans' Second Amendment rights. Individual responsibility, coupled with severe consequences for those who violate existing firearm laws, are the proper means for lowering gun violence. Unfortunately, those who wish to harm others will always find a way to carry out their bad acts.
Again, thank you for taking the time to contact me. As your Senator, it is important for me to hear from those I represent regarding the current issues affecting our nation. Please do not hesitate to be in touch again if I can be of further assistance.
Sincerely,
Signature
Kelly A. Ayotte
U. S. Senator

Nice! Although I see the Lautenmummy raises it's ugly head again.

You are mistaken Jay.
This is in reply to the e mail I sent her when this thread was first started.
I don't think you have had enough lightening since then to activate him again.
Here we see them preparing him for a session of congress.

Where's Marty Feldman when you need him?
