Open Letter: Will Murkowski stand strong?

By A. M. Johnson

 

September 25, 2013
Wednesday PM


Senator Murkowski,

The following quote from a conservative site is submitted to you as a piece that reflect many of the positions I hold, several close acquaintance agree with and through those, many more.

The message in the following is Chrystal clear, there is no misunderstanding for what is at stake. As you have stated to be a "Firm" believer of the 2nd amendment as written to not infringe the right to own and bear arms, it is expected that you will vote to support the 2nd amendment when that amendment is challenged, as it is with Obama Care.

This message to you is being submitted to Ketchikan's Sitnews to be shared by that publication's readers.

About: "Staunch God fearing Constitutionalist"

Received September 23, 2013 - Published September 25, 2013

"I love this country, it's the government I'm afraid of"

Excerpt:
"Republican Senators can defeat Reid's substitute language by filibustering it, and we believe that this is where the battle lines will be drawn. If 41 senators vote in favor of prolonging the filibuster, ObamaCare is dead.

And, frankly, any senator who claims to oppose ObamaCare -- but then votes against the filibuster (thus allowing Reid to reinsert funding for the anti-gun health care law) -- is a lying hypocrite.

So the message for now is this: Oppose any attempt to insert funding for the anti-gun ObamaCare law -- even if it means voting to filibuster the House-passed CR.

Several polls have shown that we have the voice of the American people on our side. According to one poll, 73% of the American people favor repealing ObamaCare, either fully or partially (CNN, March 2012).

So please distribute this alert far and wide and let's mobilize that 73%!

Remember: ObamaCare will give the federal government the ability to use (and abuse) our medical data as the pretext for keeping law-abiding gun owners from possessing firearms -- just as they have already done to more than 150,000 military veterans. We need to keep the heat on the Senate!
