Harry Reid Buys Anti-gun Votes from his
“Secret Room”
“Secret Room”
This battle is ObamaCare II
“The most annoying thing is the phone calls.” – a Senior Senate
Staffer commenting on the effectiveness of thousands of phone calls
pouring into their offices (June 21, 2013)
URGENT ACTION: A key vote in the Senate will be occurring later today or tomorrow morning. Please call your Senators at 202-224-3121
to register your opinion, and if you live in a state with two anti-gun
Senators, then use the contact list below to call Senators who are on
the fence. Urge your pro-gun friends and family to do the same.
Making them “An offer they can’t refuse.”
Thursday night last week was like a scene from the Godfather.
One by one, senators shuffled into Harry Reid’s “secret room” in the
Capitol, and each one (figuratively) kissed his ring and (again,
figuratively) received his payment from Reid’s stack of bills.
And, by the end of the night, Reid had presumably bought enough votes to pass his anti-gun immigration amnesty bill.
Things haven’t changed a bit from ObamaCare. Same secret room. Same procession of supplicants. Same massive secret bill, revealed at the very same moment Reid filed his motion to cut off debate. Same morally challenged senators who were more than willing to have their votes bought.
Either later today or tomorrow morning, the Senate will vote on whether to cut off all debate on the massive amendment which didn’t exist until Friday morning.
There are two things to remember: The liberal (and demonstrably partisan) Congressional Budget Office looked at the long fences, copious border agents, and Orwellian E-Verify in the base bill — and decided it would have little impact on illegal immigration, reducing it by only 25%. This, in exchange for 8,000,000 new, largely anti-gun voters.
If Hoeven, Corker, and Schumer claim that their “super-secret probation” amendment (fences, agents, e-verify) will have any more of an impact, let’s get a CBO estimate of that.
Second, the one thing Schumer has consistently refused to do is to condition his 8,000,000 new Democratic voters on the statistically demonstrable success of border security. What does that tell you?
It says this bill is more about turning this country blue than it is about securing the border.

ACTION: Call your Senators at 202-224-3121, especially if they are listed below. Tell them to vote against cloture on Harry Reid’s “Godfather amendment.”
NOTE: For those of you who live in California, New York
(and other states with two anti-gun Senators), you could use this
opportunity to call some of the Senators on the Target List below.
Senators Up for Grabs. According to media reports (and
Senate intelligence), the following Senators are either on the fence or
are leaning towards voting “yes” on the Hoeven amendment:
