A Senator for Wolf
 

Betsy Summers

Gun Control Means Being Able to Hit your Target
Don't even THINK about taking my guns! My rights are not negotiable, and I am totally unwilling to compromise when it comes to the Second Amendment.

Her site just went up so don't be too picky.

Now, if we can just get Betsy Summers to admit she's a Pagan--we're all set!

She is already too good to be electable, so any alt lifestyle stuff would be irrelevent. :(


MY GOALS AS YOUR US SENATOR

Strict enforcement of the Bill of Rights and Constitution;
Bring the troops home;
No re-institution of the draft;
Repeal the Patriot Act;
End foreign entanglements;
End corporate welfare;
Hold polluters liable;
More compassionate approach to the Drug War;
Personal ownership of retirement and health care;
Defending your right to privacy;
Eliminate the Internal Revenue Service;
Get government out of your bedroom and wallet.

I guess she would vote "nay" on most everything. :)

Isn't there already a Libertarian congressman who does that?

So what's she going to do when a bill that contains a bunch of stuff she wants to vote for is amended by a bunch of riders that have stuff that she considers against her political agenda? Her 'Yea' helps to pass stuff her constituents didn't elect her for and her 'Nay' helps to keep stuff her constituents want from going through. Either way, the next election year, people will be dreging up stuff like that...

"She promised to help repeal the Patriot Act but she voted for the BlahBlahBlah Bill, which strips hard-working Americans of their right to privacy."

Orrrr...

"She promised to protect our Consitutional Rights, but she voted against Whatever Bill which strips hard-working Americans of their right to (fill in the blank)."

...'Tis a double-edged sword they all wield, it is.

Dr.Ron Paul was a Libertarian Presidential candidate but is now a Republican Congressman. You'll see his dissenting vote on most everything (like a war in Iraq). His district is comfortable with him being out of the pork loop. The GOP has been known to occasionally go after him in the primaries, but folks with libby leanings help him with cash when the party gets cute. I'd vote for him at the drop of a hat.

Wow, they're including third party candidates, refreshing.

The inclusion of Summers and particularly Clymer in the debates figures to help Hoeffel, because the third-party candidates present conservative voters with an alternative to Specter.
