Chuckie Schumer wants my help!

The same Chuckie Schumer who wants to be able to ban people from ever owning a gun because of their ARREST record, not their actual criminal record, just sent me this:


Dear Chuck,

The Republicans are coming at us from every possible direction – health care, women’s freedom to choose, workers’ rights, environmental protection.

If I could choose anyone to be my partner in fighting these battles, it would be Kirsten Gillibrand.

Kirsten has proven herself to be a dogged defender of equal rights and committed to bringing relief to Americans who are struggling in this challenging economy. I know I can count on her to never back down, even in the face of extremist opponents.

All of us have benefited so much from having Kirsten in the U.S. Senate, so all of us need to do whatever we can to keep her there. Please join me in supporting Kirsten’s 2012 re-election bid by making a donation before the end-of-quarter deadline. She needs to raise $100,000 before March 31 so she can start this race in the best position possible.

Click here to make your donation to Kirsten’s campaign before March 31. This is the first important filing deadline for Kirsten, and she needs to make as strong a showing as possible.

It’s distressing to watch what the Republicans are doing. By attacking women’s reproductive rights, preventing collective bargaining and standing in the way of health care for all, they’re trying to demolish years and years of progress.

But even as some veer towards a dangerous radicalism, Kirsten sticks to her progressive principles. She doesn’t base her beliefs on anything except what she knows to be right and just. That’s why she’s staying the course on things such as marriage equality and freedom of choice.

We need to keep Kirsten in the Senate, but the only way we can is if all of us join together today. With your help we can show the pundits that the grassroots are behind Kirsten and she’s going to have the resources she needs to fight the tough battle ahead. The Republicans sure aren’t going to make it easy – so these early months are critical.

Click here to make your donation to Kirsten’s campaign before the crucial March 31 deadline. She needs to raise $100,000 so she’s well-prepared to take on the Republicans and win in 2012.

I think we can all agree that Kirsten has already done so much for the state of New York and America as a whole during her time in the Senate. I've no doubt she’ll continue that impressive record moving forward.

Sincerely,

Senator Chuck Schumer

Kirsten Gillibrand is the dame who ran on a platform of being a gun-owner and pro gun rights, if I remember correctly - and since has found her true calling as one of Chuckie's sycophants. The only civil rights she is 100% behind involve killing people long before they could ever vote non-Demonrat, apparently. Call a spade a spade, Chuckie - it's not reproductive rights, it's ABORTION. 


Personally, I think the Supreme Court overstepped their bounds in Roe vs. Wade, and that the federal government has no interest whatever in sex or reproduction - either pro or con. At the best, it should be a state's rights matter.


If enough people get elected and propose a Constitutional amendment defining person-hood beginning at birth, then there's a legal basis to outlaw it. I am fearful of any new federal law being enacted - any law at all - seeing the track record of our "legislators". Every law they have passed in the last 100 years or more has turned out to cause problems, or has been corrupted and warped away from its' original purpose.
