Here's proof of the "change" we've been hearing about!

Discussion Topic: NRA-Approved Gillibrand To Fill Hillary’s Seat

From Fox News:

New York Gov. David Paterson will name Rep. Kirsten Gillibrand, an upstate Democrat, to replace Hillary Clinton in the U.S. Senate, a Democratic official with knowledge of the governor's decision told FOX News on Thursday night.

But some New York City Democrats are skeptical of Gillibrand, who voted against the financial rescue package last fall. And the National Rifle Association has endorsed Gillibrand -- another cause for concern among some Democrats. . . .

In defense of the endorsement, Gillibrand told FOX News that she comes from a "hunting family" and "wants to support hunter's rights."

And she's hotter than Ann Colter!

Rumor has it ironglow's considering switching parties!

Yes, the governor sure picked better than I thought he would.

Wait and see. She will vote along party lines. Just like all those she is asscoiated with. If this were not the case she would not have got the job.

Wait and see! At least she can not be as Clinton.
My 2 cents Marv.

nomosendero · « **Reply #4 on:** January 23, 2009, 02:57:14 PM »

She wouldn't really make any waves or change anything in her State anyway. We will see what she does now, I expect her to turn, we will just have to watch & see.

If she doesn't turn, she may be the only Dem worth anything at all.

the only bright spot in the news lately, now if she can just resist the party line pressure they controll the party money to fund campaigns.

I was shocked and did not believe it when told. However, I am happy.

Maybe, just Maybe Obama is learning that a far left agenda will not work, like I say Maybe..time will tell.

beerbelly · « **Reply #7 on:** January 24, 2009, 03:20:06 AM »

She will toe the party line or the DNC will with hold campaign money from her for reelection. They will back a party liner to run against her in the primaries and she knows it. So she will do as told. Those dam communist do not allow dissension in the ranks!

I heared on the news somewhere yester day that she is the Poster child of the NRA. Hooray I finally have a senator that will represent me on this issue. I am sick of anti-gun senators.

she is still a democrat
don't go soft on this party because they have one or 2 good people

so who is taking her place in the house??
why are the democrats APPOINTING so many that are usually elected??
any one appointed is beholding to the one who appoints them

do all these appointments concern any one??

NY governor looks like a drunk

Ny's governor looks like a drunk because he is blind! He actually get's around pretty well for a blind man IMO.

blind men can't shave??

mirage1988 · « **Reply #13 on:** January 24, 2009, 11:14:54 AM »

They probably can but it might be toward the bottom of their priority list some days. My youngest brother is blind and Gov. Patterson is really an inspiration for him. Even though he is a democrat, I really respect him too for getting to where he is. Most people don't even know he is blind. He might look like a drunk because he stumbles over his words sometimes, but that is because he isn't reading off a prompter, he is speaking from memory, maybe he just doesn't like to shave. From some of your spelling- you look like a drunk too 45-70

Wow- the ignorance of some people are beyond belief. Some of you should be very embarrassment about some of the statements you make about people with handicaps. You should thank God you don't have those handicaps instead of making fun of the unfortunate people who do.There for the grace of God go I.

mirage1988 · « **Reply #18 on:** January 24, 2009, 12:03:50 PM »

Maybe before you go off all high and might JohnnyC-
you should go back and re-read the last few posts.
I don't think 45-70 knew he was blind, and if you have ever done any contruction, you would have gotten his other joke too!

mirage1988 · « **Reply #19 on:** January 24, 2009, 12:39:29 PM »

45-70-
I Don't know about the level of blindness of the NY Gov. If you were asking about my brother, he is legally blind, and will probably be totally blind in a few years. He is going to a school for the blind that teaches them life skills. One of the classes is woodworking-I'm serious, they teach blind people how to use tablesaws. (He is not getting near mine.LOL)

as a carpenter i know a few with missing fingers
those fingers will be his eyes soon

i talked to a man years ago...his son was blind
but was set on shooting a deer on his own [dad near by so he didn't shoot some one]

i train [no ammo, just my crimson trace grip] to shoot by sound it is a skill you can develop

but what about the seat she left vacant??
i think they are really afraid of the NRA and are trying to score points
maybe afraid after Clinton's 2ND year......of afraid of what they are about to do

there is no good democrat

INTERESTING - NO MISPELLED WORDS OR POOR GRAMMER IN THIS ONE- WHAT'S THAT ABOUT?? hmmmm

mirage1988 · « **Reply #24 on:** January 24, 2009, 01:31:20 PM »

Interesting- no misspelling- not drunk yet? lol-just kidding.
I didn't say he stumbled, I said he stumbled over his words. He made the best choice for senator he could possibly have made. As a democrat, he actually picked a pro-gun senator based on WHO he felt was THE MOST QUALIFIED for the JOB. Based on looks-Kennedy would have been the most qualified for the job according to the democrats job requirements. Thank God he is blind! Again, I am a conservative from Minnnesota.

billy_56081 · « **Reply #25 on:** January 24, 2009, 02:12:53 PM »

Now yes I'm happy with the pro gun stance of this Senator, but is she still a baby killer?

Now is she a Congress woman in the State of New York or in the USHR? I am asking this just out of the idea that the dirty filth mongers in the DNC may see her pro gun vote weaker in the senate than in the house. Just thinking and trolling for information.

I live in Kirsten Gillbrand's congressional district and I can tell you guys that she has been great. Democrat or Republican, I don't care. The fact is she (thus far) has truly been the people's representative. And besides her pro gun stance, she is also supportive of agriculture, which is still alive but on life support in this part of the state. Bottom line is that I was very happy to see her picked. I think she will serves us well. As I see it NY has moved forward in some very positive ways - Paterson is way better than Spitzer and Gillibrand is way better than Hillary. I hope Gillibrand sticks to her roots and doesn't cave in to Schumer and the other downstate liberals. Time wll tell.
