Constitutional Crisis Gun Control evil Harry Reid.

Now imag­ine this, you have a man in the Sen­ate that has not had the Balls to put a bud­get to a vote and allow it to pass for more than four years but he wants to pass an uncon­sti­tu­tion­al Gun con­trol Law.

This is very impor­tant. Stand up for your rights and vote in 2014 because that is the only thing these peo­ple will under­stand. Sen­ate Major­i­ty Leader Har­ry Reid is prepar­ing to break through Sen­a­tor Rand Paul’s fil­i­buster as ear­ly as Wednes­day after­noon, con­vinced pro-gun Repub­li­cans will run for the hills at the first sign of a fight. Tim, with­out your IMMEDIATE action, I’m afraid he just may be right. That’s why it’s absolute­ly vital you sign your Emer­gency Fax Peti­tion IMMEDIATELY.

My staff has deliv­ered 192,673 Emer­gency Fax Peti­tions to U.S. Sen­ate offices in just the last 72 hours. If you have already signed your peti­tion, please for­ward the Emer­gency Fax Peti­tion to every­one you know and ask them to take action. You see, as of right now, one dozen Sen­a­tors have pledged to join Sen­a­tor Paul’s fil­i­buster.

That means you and I need to pres­sure 28 oth­er Sen­a­tors to stave off Sen­ate Major­i­ty Leader Reid’s scheme. Oth­er Sen­a­tors are cow­er­ing in the shad­ows and rid­ing the fence. But there’s a hand­ful who are con­spir­ing to hand Pres­i­dent Oba­ma every­thing he wants. In fact, the mes­sage Sen­a­tor John McCain deliv­ered yes­ter­day on CBS’ Face the Nation was crystal clear to any­one lis­ten­ing, say­ing “I don’t under­stand” why Sen­a­tor Paul was fil­i­bus­ter­ing the motion to pro­ceed to debate.  Sen­a­tor McCain’s under­ly­ing mes­sage was as hard to miss as it was out­ra­geous … “Sen­ate Repub­li­cans should trust Pres­i­dent Oba­ma and Har­ry Reid.” Any­one with half a brain and a shred of con­cern for our Sec­ond Amend­ment rights should see why this would be a hor­ri­ble strat­e­gy to allow Har­ry Reid to bring ANY gun bill to the floor. In fact, just this past Fri­day, Sen­ate Major­i­ty Leader Har­ry Reid laid his strat­e­gy bare in a radio inter­view on Neva­da Pub­lic Radio, say­ing:

*** “We’re going to do some­thing on back­ground checks [NATIONAL GUN REGISTRATION].”

*** “We’re going to take a look at the size of clips or mag­a­zines.”

*** “And when it’s all over, we’re going to have votes on [the Fein­stein Gun Ban].”

As I’ve warned you from the begin­ning, as soon as a gun bill reach­es the floor for debate, Sen­ate Major­i­ty Leader Reid will be free to horse-trade and deal with sup­pos­ed­ly “pro-gun” Democ­rats vul­ner­a­ble for reelec­tion and weak-kneed Repub­li­cans to see just how much of Pres­i­dent Obama’s anti-gun agen­da they can ram into law.

The only thing stop­ping them until this point was con­vinc­ing a well-known “pro-gun” con­ser­v­a­tive Repub­li­can to help them break Sen­a­tor Paul’s fil­i­buster. Know­ing just how heat­ed the gun issue is, many vul­ner­a­ble Democ­rats were wary of “step­ping out on the ledge” and hav­ing the gun issue spell their defeat in 2014. The solu­tion? Being able to say such a scheme was “bipar­ti­san” and “even pro-Sec­ond Amend­ment Repub­li­cans sup­port­ed it.” That’s why, for weeks, they’ve been shop­ping around a “com­pro­mise” to weak-kneed GOP Sen­a­tors they think they can work with. First it was Tom Coburn (R‑OK). Then Chuck Grass­ley (IA). Now Pat Toomey (R‑PA) is in “talks” with Obama’s anti-gun Sen­ate ring­leader Joe Manchin (D‑WV). 

I haven’t heard any news of a smoky back­room deal being struck yet. But Sen­a­tor Reid’s deci­sion to try and break through Sen­a­tor Paul’s fil­i­buster as soon as Wednes­day makes me fear for the worst. That’s why you and I have to turn up the heat IMMEDIATELY. You see, this may be our last best chance to defeat the bill. Already, GOP lead­ers in the House have passed three bills with major­i­ty Demo­c­rat sup­port — even when a major­i­ty of Repub­li­cans have opposed the bills. Speak­er Boehn­er and Major­i­ty Leader Eric Can­tor are keep­ing their mouths zipped, refus­ing to say whether or not they’ll do the same thing on guns. Tim, you and I both know their silence means Speak­er John Boehn­er and House Major­i­ty Leader Eric Can­tor are plan­ning to betray Sec­ond Amend­ment sup­port­ers. I hate to be so cyn­i­cal, but that is the ugly truth. So please sign your Emer­gency Fax Peti­tion IMMEDIATELY. And if you can, please for­ward this email to every pro-gun friend and fam­i­ly mem­ber you have. Final­ly, if you pos­si­ble can, won’t you please chip in just $10 or $20? Every dol­lar you give means I can turn up even more pres­sure on the Sen­ate — and hope­ful­ly smoke out any Sen­ate Repub­li­can back­stab­ber before the motion to pro­ceed to any anti-gun scheme is vot­ed on. You and I can win this fight. But only if we take action IMMEDIATELY. So please sign your Emer­gency Fax Peti­tion at once. There’s no time to waste. For Free­dom, Dud­ley Brown Exec­u­tive Vice Pres­i­dent
