From GOA...Senate to Consider Bill Allowing Obama-Packing Scheme

[Lone Star State Sentinal]

 

April 5, 2011   Gun Owners of America Senate to Consider Bill Allowing Obama-Packing Scheme Shortly, the U.S. Senate will consider legislation to take a number of key gun-related offices in the Department of Justice and remove them from the requirement of Senate confirmation.  The legislation is sponsored by anti-gun zealot Charles Schumer (D-NY) and weak-kneed Republican Lamar Alexander (R-TN). S. 679 would give Barack Obama the ability to fill major gun-related Department of Justice slots with anti-gun partisans, without the pesky inconvenience of having to comply with the Constitution's requirements for Senate confirmation. Consider the following: Barack Obama has not hesitated to load up his administration with anti-gun crazies like Regulatory Czar Cass Sunstein (who thinks hunters should be sued in court because of the pain and suffering they inflict upon animals) and Andrew Traver (the nominee to head the ATF who never met a gun control proposal he didn't like). If he has been willing to pack his administration with anti-gun extremists -- many of whom had to pass Senate confirmation -- imagine what kind of lunatics Obama could nominate if the Schumer-Alexander legislation exempted major positions from constitutional advise-and-consent requirements. To take posts like the official who composes statistics for the Justice Department (the Director of the Bureau of Justice Statistics) and the person who represents the Justice Department before Congress (Assistant Attorney General, Legislative Affairs) and turn them into "Political hack" positions is unacceptable. ACTION:  Contact your Senators.  Urge them to filibuster S. 679, the Schumer-Alexander bill to exempt Justice Department gun-related posts from the Constitution's advise-and-consent requirements.   Click here to contact your Senators.

If we allow the government to confiscate our guns or restrict them in any way we might as well roll over and play Dead. Our Guns are the SYMBOL of our Freedoms and Liberty. We must remove all the Socialists in congress who are running for reelection in 2012. We need to Dominate the elections this cycle, and to do that We the People must Dominate the Primaries. We can work out all our differences in the primaries and not split the vote like we did in the last election. The Primaries are the only place where we get to decide who we are going to vote for and not have candidates shoved down our throats by the Party Establishment. We need to get every Member active in their Local Precincts to fight against the Socialist onslaught against our Nation. We need to get our boots on the ground and keep slogging until we win in 2012. Think of it this way, Do you want to give up any of your Constitutional Freedoms? If the answer is NO then why aren't you fighting against the Administrations agenda that has stolen so many of them so far and won't stop until they are all taken away.  Immediate Action, in the form of Organizing to Dominate the 2012 Elections is necessary for our victory over Socialism. To Dominate the Elections we must Dominate the Primaries & to do that learn how at;( http://www.theprecinctproject.wordpress.com/ ) We need to do this as well as keeping the pressure on Congress through The Demonstrations at the Federal and State Capitols.
